I''m watching my back now

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

I''m watching my back now

This is what's happening where I live. This story hasn't scared me much even though it's been going on for a while but now since they have a suspect, I think I've seen this guy. The other thing that spooks me is that this guy wasn't using just any gun in the shootings, but an Army Baretta. This guy could be walking around outside right now and I wouldn't know it.

Here's your link

Unfortuantly, that has happened in California several years ago and in the washington/virginia area sniper shootings. Just use caution as I heard he is shooting at moving cars verse those stopped at stores, ect.

Mmm, I guess that you have a good incentive to stay inside and play FL now .

Post Tue Mar 16, 2004 4:29 pm

That reminds me, Esq. I was going to play FL for a while.

And Finalday, That's happened in D.C. and California, but in Columbus, Ohio the biggest thing here is the statehouse and the Budwieser plant. I guess you could add the Victoria's Secret warhouses but that's all of importance here. You don't think some looney is gonna try to shoot a lot of people.

They found him in Las Vegas...... Funny, I think this is the second or third bigtime fugitive that has ended up in Las Vegas or close to LV when they were caught.

You'd think that they'd try to leave the country ...... but...nooooooo.... rather have some fun while on the lamm.....

Yeah, they caught him in a bar in Vegas.

And Stinger, do you know where Easton is? Thats where all of the Victoria's Secret stuff is.

I grew up in New Albany where Les Wexner lives. I'm familiar with Easton, it's a bit on the expnsive side but sure is nice to walk around and check out the "sights" if you catch my drift. 9 out of 10 people are talking on cell phones at all times.

And there's a Gameworks there.

A New Albanite, eh?

You live in the rich suburbs of the city, I live in "the hood". We have a running joke on how Columbus is the largest suburb of New Albany, and how Wexner pays for all of the mayoral candidates. I don't like Easton much either. Too expensive and way too crowded. The only places even near Easton that are good are the Army Surplus Store on Morse and the Galyans in near there.

Back on topic, Chuck McCoy (My name for him) wasn't found in a bar, but in a casino. He was staying at a Budget Inn (Best a Columbus Resident can afford down there) and still had his dark green Geo Metro. He could've learned a lesson from FL: "Get a new ship, they're after you."

McCoy's sister had a lot of guts to say what she said to try to get him to surface.

As long as he is the one and no others doing some of the shootings, or any coy cats that sometimes turn up just to iritate the police. Hopefully the police do their homework and cross their T' and Dot their i's so he can't get off.

Finalday, this is Columbus we're talking about. Of course the cops will dot their T's and cross their I's. (That was intentional, if you didn't get it, read it again.)
