Even though it is still early in June, we are already in those hazy, lazy days of summer.It's when the livin' is easy, kick back and relax with an iced tea or cold drink of choice. Listen to the katy-dids and buzzing bees and find a place in the shade to doze off and let the rest of the world roll by. Or,go up to Krogers and roll up to a four way stop and pull out your gun and blaze away at the Hummer dude that had shown his gun to you when the two of you disagreed on whose turn it was to go first. Have we seriously regressed or what? Whatever happened to civility? The news reported that the two men exchanged words before firing and waving a gun about. How do you suppose that went? "You first." "No,no, you first." "No, that's OK, I am not in any hurry." Hummer dude pulls gun and is about to say, "I insist." His words were drowned out by the hail of bullets piercing his door and his arm and his head. I always thought of Hummers as being as impenetrable as a Brink's truck! Not so! Of
course, I may have it all wrong, it may just be an unfortunate misunderstanding. Maybe it was Hummerdude's birthday and he just got his fully legal 40 caliber,simi-automatic gun for his birthday and he was just showing it to the ex-cop with no ill intent. Ex-cop wants to show him that he too has a fully legal 40 caliber simi-automatic gun, forgetting that he has a hair trigger and so he got shooting and didn't quit till he had shot up the Hummer, the Hummerdude and the National City Bank. He also shot the lazy day of summer all to heck and back. I'm trying to be understanding about this incident but...

You may have hit the nail on the head with these two senarios. I was thinking the conversation may have been a bit different, but you are probably right! 3:30 on a lazy, Summer Sunday indeed.
