Penny who?

This is another random tune buzzing around in my head all day for no reason. At least its not as bad as some of them.

They're useless for so-called 'self defence' as well. All they give is a false sense of security which makes someone more likely to wander into a dangerous situation. Last I read 80% of cops who were killed on duty were killed with their own weapon, just one reason why British police prefer...

At least they weren't all delivered on the same day!

There's no way of knowing. He could be a totally reformed character in five year's time or made worse by his experiences between now and then. At some point in the future he could be living next door to a family with a small child and they would have no idea who he was unless something terrible...

He won't be kept in for life though. He'll be free in five years time, given a new identity and the media banned from revealing who he is.

Recreational drugs! I've seen it round here. I saw a group of young girls who were normally very well-behaved visiting a nearby drug dealer on a saturday night and around two hours later they were spoiling for a fight with anyone and everyone. I think they were on amphetamines although it...

I'm not criticising them but did they ever consider what sort of "life" he would have if he did survive?

If things seem slow at the moment it's because it's a bank holiday weekend in the US (of sorts). "Juneteenth" There's another one coming soon too, July 4th Weekend.

Mine died recently and not a single relative mentioned it on Facebook. It was as if he never existed. It was four days even before I found out he was dead although it wasn't entirely unexpected.
