The other night there was a huge commotion outside, but that could have been anything. People around here like to argue over dumb things, and rarely is it serious. After eavesdropping (it was after midnight and I was in pajamas…not time to meet the neighbors unless I *have* to) all I could get from it was that a “firetruck hit someone.”

Well, there was a firetruck in sight, and later an ambulance drove through. But there was nothing in the paper about this.

But then I see today’s news article about an armed robbery. A few months ago there was an armed robbery of a pizza delivery guy in the neighborhood.
