Great. Now there is a murderer on the loose in my neighborhood

Great.

There was a double-shooting across the road from me.  The husband died, and the wife is at the hospital; she was shot too.  The gunman is on the loose.

I live in a really nice city/suburb too.

Fabu. 

Sometimes I do wish I had a shotgun.  In fact, there have been a couple of times where it would have been beneficial to have one, and I have been thinking about getting one.  I am not one for handguns, but shotguns don’t go through walls, and the sound of cocking a shotgun in the dark is a very scary sound to any intruder.  At least, it’s better than my fricken’ double-sided knife and baseball bat, which is hard to use from a supine position.

    I’ll try. I take it either you really want me to co-host your show with you, or you can’t replace me in time. I would imagine it’s the latter. ;-)

    Maybe they sell those little portable sound-makers that makes a sound just like a shotgun being cocked. Maybe some enterprising person could make and sell a bunch of those.

    Oooh, ooh, oooh! and then it can make a sound of a husky man whispering “you stay here, honey, watch what I do to this bastard, heh heh heh (pause) YESSS, I promise to clean it up this time”

Come on man. You know you want to say something!
