@achewood My bicycle is parked in the living room. A tub of tartar sauce sits open on the counter. Truly, the evidence of a wife being away too long.

The scene at the end of A Christmas Story where he watches Ralphie open his BB gun gets to me every time.  snuf

See, when I heard a mini-soundbite on the radio this morning that "The Night Stalker" was dead, I thought that the serial killer of the same name had died.  And when I scanned the other posts, I was confused, especially by why Aug would be touched by a serial killer/rapist giving anyone a gun.  I remember the dad from Christmas story, so thank you... for the education.
