This has been a bizarre week in regards to the news that have been reported.
*The impending execution of the DC Sniper
*The serial killer in Ohio
* Beastiality
*The people who reported a infant missing since 31 Oct, but was found under the bed in a cedar box, with a box of baking soda.
*Army Major Hasan who shot all of those people.
It's gotten to the point that I hate to turn on the news!!!
