He's obviously not a lawyer

If you murder your baby, don't forget to tell your husband to keep his mouth shut when you get caught. Otherwise he may say something like this:

"My wife was not in her five senses. She didn't know what she was doing," Medina said, choking back tears. "I don't know if many people know what postpartum depression is, but in reality it is something very serious and needs to be treated."

Not "in her five senses." Weak. A sad story, but premeditation was likely involved.

Simmons said Hermosillo's behavior showed she intended to kill her son, regardless of her mental state.

"It's not like she's in a fetal position when the police arrived," he said. "She picks a specific location, drives to the top of the building (and) takes the helmet off. I'm sure she's depressed, the post-partum blues, I'm sure she had some of that."

I have five kids, OK? Do you think there's never been pust-partum depression in our house? It's pretty bad, but murder is something different. Rest in peace, little guy.

Andy Nowicki has a new book out

Andy Nowicki has a new book out. Here's an interview thing about it, I read half of it. I might get this one, sounds like it might be interesting. The last one about Columbine was just too weird.

Andy is a nice guy who I jagged around with a bunch of times in the early days of this blog. He usually took it pretty well, as I recall. I guess he's some sort of professor.

You call yourself intense

Check out that last frames with the geeks in the sweater vests. Looks like they're playing a lunch gig at Microsoft.

Oh, I can hardly wait.

Per a tweet pointed out to me by Pikkumatti, Rod Dreher is returning to the blogosphere. Maybe he got tired of having internet searches on his name return Est Quod Est and R. S. McCain on the first page, mainstream conservatives that we are. So rah, rah, yay team.

Update: Picture change.

Killers, thieves and cookies

OK, you may hate Tom Waits, but you have to admit this is well done.
