When Moses went to see who God was the "Burning Bush" was asked by Moses what does he tell his people God's name is and the Burning Bush replied "I Am" "I Am".

MD's death penalty is on a moratorium while some liberal college professor finishes a study on the racial equity of it. I am confident he will conclude the death penalty is racist and it will be abolished in the name of diversity.
To: Peach
Thanks Peach. The police are denying the 2nd note found....
And some are worried about the Redskins game this weekend.
To: Molly Pitcher
Chief Moose on now. Overnight homicide was definitely not related. FBI is answering the tip line.
To: Peach
John Miller on GMA reported that at the latest shooting, police found a piece of paper with the words "I am". Hi Peach.
"I am that I am" is biblical reference. God to Moses, regarding His name.
Tarot cards....Biblical quotes.... hmmmmm?
Do they mention where/how far away the note was found?
To: GirlNextDoor
Didn't Neil Diamond have a song called I am, I Cried? Has anyone heard from Neil lately????
To: GirlNextDoor
"Burning Bush" = "I Am". I hope and pray the killer is not referring to the President.
To: Miss Marple
Moose on Fox now ... not saying ANYTHING! He accuses Pundits of just trying to get face time .... ?? He got snippy with Brian and E.D. when they asked questions. If he is not going to answer questions about the investigation then why do interview AFTER press conference?
To: Alas Babylon!
I know you were prolly joking
( While Neil Simon isn't the sniper, listening long enough could move some to violent reaction. ;-)
But, it's raining, I'm on vacation. SO...
I actually looked up the song :-).
I Am, I Said
...
Well I'm New York City born and raised
But nowadays, I'm lost between two shores
L.A.'s fine, but it ain't home
New York's home, but it ain't mine no more
I am, I said
To no one there
An no one heard at all
Not even the chair
I am, I cried
I am, said I
And I am lost, and I can't even say why
Leavin' me lonely still
Did you ever read about a frog who dreamed of bein' a king
And then became one
Well except for the names and a few other changes
I you talk about me, the story's the same one
But I got an emptiness deep inside
And I've tried, but it won't let me go
And I'm not a man who likes to swear
But I never cared for the sound of being alone
I am, I said
To no one there
An no one heard at all
Not even the chair
I am, I cried
I am, said I
And I am lost, and I can't even say why
Leavin' me lonely still
Hmmmm......Strange, but as I just said to my brother, What about this case isn't?
To: Lil'freeper
We can thank KKT for spearheading that. :) I'm going to be adding the following to my email signature:
"Did you know that if the Maryland Shooter is caught in Maryland, he won't have to face the death penalty? You can thank Kathleen Kennedy-Townsend for that -- she lobbied for a moratorium on it. Does this creep really need to keep using up our precious oxygen? Save the Environment! Stop the madness! Vote for Bob Ehrlich!"

Good morning, Peach
Checking in this morn from sniper alley I have some thoughts.
First, I'm convinced the perp will not shoot on rainy days. Indeed when I woke up yesterday and heard the soft ping of rain my first thought was...it's raining...they'll be no shootings today.
Which means, oddly, that by living in the target range, I consider that I may have framed some sort of profile of the sniper my own Merryland citizen self. Which is really scary when I think about it.
Moose was on this morning refusing to comment about "evidence" found at the scene. Said evidence consisting of a note with the words "I am" scribbled upon.
I think the sniper is going to continue circling DC for a while then eventually hone in on someone BIG. OR pull off a shot at a major outdoor event. The Redskins play in PG county and the reporters are hammering on Moose about protection, et al. This is the sort of event the sniper's going to pull off a shot.
I say this with my newfound psychological insight to the sniper. Obviously the guy is quite enjoying his notoriety. Sooner or later the killing of average citizens gassing up their cars is going to be passe. I predict that he'll be hitting on a big politico soon (yeah, I'm thinking the President though I'm not convinced he'll pull it off). But also could be the Governor, perhaps a cop. If he doesn't get stopped, on to such as football games, outdoor soccer matches...that type of thing.
Just my thoughts this rainy Merryland day.

Did you know that if the Maryland Shooter is caught in Maryland, he won't have to face the death penalty? This is a factoid currently flying low under the radar here in Merryland, cyphergirl.
But I'm taking bets now....come on I'm giving 50 to one odds, that when this perp is caught, that moratorium is going to be lifted right away.
In fact, as I type I'm thinking focus groups have already indicated to the Dems who would love to exploit this situation, that it would be best not to mention anything about taking away our guns.
We may be liberal idiots here in Merryland but no way even the most radical left will stand for the sniper getting to keep HIS gun while the gubmint industriously works to take away OURS.
I say it won't fly. Right now we're worried about getting shot but let this perp finally get caught and the groundswell to put this guy to death will be breathtaking.
Moi predicts.

I heard the Prince William sheriff deny yesterday that there had been any communication.
To: GeorgeandtheDralgore; Peach
Furhman really did say that. It was on the same set of tapes that he made with the bimbette "screenwriter" that got played during the trial. Most people don't remember that quote, just all the times he used the "N word".

To: GirlNextDoor
Oh brother.
Per FOX: There WAS NO second note. Lord, why don't the reporters verify before they fly off a report??
To: Fishtalk
I share your concern about the President being the ultimate target. This is a great time for both of us to be wrong.

If anyone has time today and is so inclined, you can listen to the Prince George County or Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Dispatches on the internet at http://www.sconfire.com/livedispatch.htm. The links are on the right side about halfway down.
I will try to be tuning in through out the day as well.
