The Plot Muddles

According to news reports, which is pretty much the only way I get information when I don't know any of the people involved, the following facts have emerged concerning key players in last week's Connecticut shooting:

1. Nancy Lanza was a devoted mother. Examples of this include her bringing her son's homework to school one time when he left it at home, and sleeping outside his bedroom door another time when he was sick.

2. Nancy Lanza was a gun-toting, fun-loving, divorced bar lizard, hanging out at least three nights a week at a local drinking spot and buying a round for the regulars on occasion, when she wasn't out at the shooting range honing her skills for the coming Apocalypse, or playing Bunco with her friends.

3. Adam Lanza was a quiet young man, possibly autistic, and may have had Asperger's Syndrome. What is known for sure is that he wore a pocket protector in high school, so draw your own conclusions.

Based on the above, I am looking into the possibility of turning our TV set into a planter. (We need the newspapers for barbecues and the stuffing of packages so things don't rattle around, and the crossword puzzles to stave off Alzheimers.)
