A gunman on the verge of losing his job opened fire at an auto parts warehouse today, killing six people. The attacker also was killed.

This job market is killing people... It really is getting tough out there... Employers better watch who they're thinking of firing.

People seemed so shocked when stuff like this happens... I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often. How did all those Enron employees who lost everything not go target practicing?

In a way I kinda blame Science Fiction for all the troubles we have...

Back in the old days SciFi had people thinking the future was going to be all clean with robots and jetpacks... It really looked hopeful, then SciFi changed and we had a bleak future with nothin to look forward to but grime and crime and Solent Green... And that about what we have today.

We should have been living on Mars instead we are still looking at it with telescopes. Ray Bradbury just had his Birthday and we are still no more closer to living on Mars than we were when Orson Welles and the Mercury Theater did "War of the Worlds".

Everyone is so shocked about poor safety procedures at NASA when we lose some Astronauts... Everything just shuts down and no progress is made because we don't want people blowing up on live TV.

I say, let's put disgruntled employees into space before they go shooting their co-workers and don't worry so much whether the hatch is so airtight.

By losing a few air-breathers in the pursuit of progress we can live a better life in the future.

For 13 nights, Annie Lewis slept on the street just feet from the area's first East Lansing Krispy Kreme store, setting a record ahead of its opening.

The East Lansing resident smiled as her son, 12-year-old Gregg Pullano, cut a ribbon, signaling the opening. Gregg, who is autistic and is obsessed with Krispy Kremes, was the first customer through the door.

Sometimes it takes an autistic kid with a sugar rush and an obsession with Krispy Kreme donuts to wake me up to just how great my life is...
