No, the title does NOT say "Smallville".

Some interesting developments in my community over the last couple of days. I'm posting them out of chronological order on purpose.

Part I: It began a few years ago, when a local doctor was charged with over-prescribing medications, resulting in the deaths of a few people. He was restricted by the Arkansas State Medical Board, and not allowed to prescribe medicine.

Part III: The ATF arrested the local doctor Wednesday night, because he had several grenades and other large explosives at his house.

So at this point, I'm thinking, ok, the guy is a wacko. Then my wife reminded me of part 2.

Part II: Last month, the head of the State Medical Board was severely injured when his van exploded in his driveway. It was ruled a car bomb, but there have been no suspects. Dude is still in the hospital.

Coincidence? I think not!! Detective Chewy is on the case!

If your police aren't thick, they would find pieces of the bomb left over from the car and compare it to what was found at the doctor's home. Tools used to make bombs can leave impressions on the objects they are used upon.

As a detective, I think I would be.... um.... probably lousy. I'm a lousy writer too.

The only new development is the local doctor had over $1,000,000 worth of grenades, machine guns, and a grenade launcher at his home. I figure a typical prescription read like this:
Take Augmentin, Nasonex, and 2 grenades and call me in the morning.

And the local paper is now speculating what I presented in the first post. I guess they're not as dumb as I thought. Maybe they read Massassi too.

Heh, that is scary. Hooray for gun control. I mean, grenade control.

A drunk gunman was apparently on the loose a few blocks away from my school earlier tonight. My school sent out alerts to everyone. He was caught, and I'm willing to bet he shot one person and ran and everyone freaked the **** out.

Why would someone NOT freak out because a German was drunk?
Looks like we're not going down after all, so nevermind.

Funny story - apparently he didn't have a gun at all. They told us all he did, but according to the news, he only had a knife. My entire school and all of our parents were notified because a drunk guy with a knife was on the loose about 12 or 13 blocks away from my school. Oh small towns.

*** return to topic - necrothread revived ***

The last month or so the doctor has been on trial for multiple things, including the bombing of the chairman of the state medical board.

A few moments ago, he was found guilty.

http://www.katv.com/Global/story.asp?S=12948123

I called it first.

Now we just have to wait for sentencing.

This is a big deal around here - it's not everyday a local doctor becomes a terrorist-bomber-attempted-murderer.

Sounds like your wife called it first, but it doesn't seem like that hard of a call to make ;)
