Signs of the apocalypse

So I was sitting around today, reading the Largeville News online. The Largeville News is out of the capital city of our state, and covers news statewide. A headline out of Samoaville, Mr. Samoa's hometown, caught my eye. Now, normally the most newsworthy thing that happens in Samoaville is when Tagalong and I get into it at the Memorial Day barbecue, so I investigated further.

The name "Sandra Smith" in the article caught my eye. I couldn't remember how but I knew the Samoa family knew her. Which was exceedingly unfortunate, considering she had been murdered! She was apparently murdered in her bed. I immediately rushed to the phone to call Mother Samoa, Mr. Samoa's mom, and figure out how the Samoas knew her. As it turned out, she had been the principal of Mr. Samoa and Tagalong's elementary school, and was well known in the community. Ms. Smith was apparently also well known for her Springeresque marital strife. I said to Mother Samoa, "You don't suppose the husband did it, did you?" She said oh, goodness, no, he never would have done such a thing. I made agreeable noises, but I was thinking to myself, "Upstanding guy, huh? Call the sheriff- we found our suspect!" :P In any case, the family of the victim can certainly use your prayers and thoughts.

In the Chin saga, photos and video have been procured. Should Mr. Samoa ever get home and get his butt onto Messenger, I will show them to him.
