"Do we have time to stop for milk or will they all be dead by then?"

As I walked up to the supermarket today, I noticed a fire truck parked in the parking lot. As one often does upon seeing emergency vehicles, I wondered if something was amiss. I was pretty sure the joint wasn't burning down (that would have been obvious) but they send fire trucks for all sorts of medical emergencies. Anyway, I promptly forgot about the whole thing once I got inside and started looking for groceries.

When I got in line, however, I eventually noticed that behind me were two firefighters, in full uniform, with a cart full of groceries.

Did these guys take the firetruck to the store to pick up dinner??

Helter skeeter

A preemptive strike against a mosquito leaves a smudge of someone else's blood on my wall.

Now I'm worried that if some evil befalls one of the neighbours, forensic evidence exists that could be construed as linking my bedroom to the crime.

If you're reading this, please note the date, as you may have to testify at my trial.
