Sorry it couldn't be under better circumstances.

Hi, Thorswitch. Your handle and posted name sound kinda familiar. Have we met IRL here in KC?
I got a voicemail from Dave's niece tonight, asking me to call her. She thanked me for what I said on Fox, and said she'd like to talk to me about him a little bit, and that she had a couple of things of his she thought I might like. I can't imagine how the poor girl must feel, but I'm going to call her tomorrow.

Great...Just Great...
It seems that my dead psycho pal had killed before...and none of us knew.
This just keeps getting better and better. Quote:

I am so sorry, spode. What a horribly disappointing piece of news to discover.

I've been asked by David's niece to handle the internment of his ashes. Prior to this new revelation, we were working on a memorial focusing on the man before Ward Parkway and the tragedy of his demise and those he took out on the way down.
Now we're talking about sneaking into the woods under cover of darkness and doing our basic clerical duties as is expected of us as Priests and Priestesses. Fuck.

At last, perhaps a sense of closure
Selene and I met with Dave's niece and her husband last night. Dave's sister (the niece's mother) has decided that she is going to inter his ashes on the grounds of the family home where Dave still lived when he went crazy.
I'm pretty much relieved, to be honest.

Relieved not to be involved because of his fucked up past, recent and distant? Or relieved because your heart isn't into the ceremony you'd be expected to perform?

Relieved because the problem of how to appropriately lay the deceased to rest has been taken out of my hands. I mean, how in hell *do* you hold a ceremony for a killer? With normal folks, you can say all the nice stuff they did and how you'll miss them and such. That doesn't go over so well with a mad dog killer's final sendoff.

Got that. There was a guy at work that was a complete bastard. Wife left him, children wouldn't talk to him, bosses and cow orkers hated him. He couldn't get laid in Bangkok.
Then he died. About a month later I mentioned he was a bastard when we found something he'd screwed up and tried to make it looked like it was someone else's fault. Everybody's suddenly on my case, because I said what everybody knew and agreed with... until he died. Well fuck that, dieing doesn't let you off the hook. I'm glad you weren't put in that position.

Well, here's #2 in the too fucking close to home sweepstakes. At least I didn't know the victim personally. Hopefully I won't know the perp when he's found.
An 18 year old Overland Park girl was kidnapped from a Target store across the state line in Kansas on Saturday. This afternoon, her body was found...in the large park just to the South of my old neighborhood, Park Hills, in Grandview. The apparent exact location where she was discovered is smack dab in the middle of what used to be my teenage stomping grounds, a place where we used to drive our cars across the low water of the Little Blue and go parking, drinking and boinking. The lay of the land is considerably different now since Longview Lake went in, but I have been to this location countless times in my life. The guy who did this to her is the guy for whom the death penalty exists. Fuck him. http://www.myfoxkc.com/myfox/pages/N...Y&pageId=3.1.1

And just as quick as I posted this, police announce that they have a suspect in custody.

No, thank the Gods. If he is guilty, I hope they fry him.
