Thanks for sticking around, dear reader! I just wrapped up the October ish, just in time for the Jewy New Year! Shana tova!
Sorry I haven’t written much lately. There were plenty of things I could’ve written about, like these two items:
Al Qaeda or Al Capone?
What is up with all these car-bombings in Lebanon? Did the Federation leave a copy of “Chicago Mobs of the Twenties” behind after their last trip?
In Drugs We Trust, or, The Crank-Driven Life
After Brian Nichols went bananas and killed a bunch of people in an Atlanta courthouse, he took Ashley Smith hostage. The “nice” narrative was that she pulled out a copy of “The Purpose-Driven Life” and helped talk Nichols into surrendering after they read a chapter called “Using What God Gave Me.”
As it turns out, she was using a little more than that. When Nichols asked her for some weed, Smith said she didn’t have any. Fortunately, she had some crystal meth stashed away, so Nichols was able to party down some, and Smith was able to rededicate her life to God, since Nichols bogarted her stash.
