Friday
Ending the week with a confused, angry, upset blog is not my favorite of things to do.
The blog has nothing to do with me but with the events of yesterday and the day before.
So, rest in peace Emily Keyes.
In other news, there was another shooting. A former student in western wisconsin shot his principal. They won't say much but if this is the end of the week that is very relieving.
The sad thing about any kind of school violence is how much I am not surprised. I'm not jaded over much in life but with teenagers very little surprises me. Depresses, but not surprises. I didn't grow up in a school system (middle school and high school especially) where school shooting was a regular or even feared occurence. If someone had a problem with you they stabbed you. Or cut you. Or beat the hell out of you and then cut you.
I managed to get through those years not getting cut. It's good to be quiet sometimes.
Suburbia has to worry about shootings. Urbania just has individual minor things that occur.
Well, I'm still sick of course. But have used time to keep up with artwork and work on halloween costume.
Happy friday!
Now, there are quite a few things that are mentioned frequenty in this blog.
Peanuts is one of them.
*SOB!*

it's horrible what happened
It sometimes seem as if the world is getting malevolent, but as horrible as individual acts might be, two things are true:
1) Thanks to modern communications, more incidents are being reported than ever before
and
(2)As populations increase the small percentage of "bad guys" get more numerous, but they are still outnumbered by the good guys.
As much as possible, try to hang out with the white hats.
Have a great weekend.
Hurrah for the good guys and you are very very correct.
It's hard sometimes to discern the white hats from the...every one else
But they most certainly do exist you're right
I had something else I wanted to say but after watching Charlie Brown I'm all teary and can't really see what I'm typing.
Don't forget to pop in at the new Crawfordslist location to sign the new group portrait.

It would be a good brawl without birdie feathers.
Hey there,
I think in a society where we solve problems by violence, we shouldn't be at all surprised by these incidents. Horried and sick ( I got a huge headache after hearing about the Amish children), but not surprised.
Take care of yourself!
