What Came First: The Murder or the Story?

I love watching CSI: Crime Scene Investigation. It's a great show, lots of interesting story lines, and it has gotten to have a lighter side. However, the latest show, which aired on 11/04, was really quite disturbing. Someone was cheerfully chopping up vegetables, a credit card and put an ear - a human ear - into the New England clam chowder. Umm... eeeiiiuuwwww? Seriously? Really? And - as if all of this wasn't gross enough - the cheerful chopper then feeds it to someone who is bound, missing his ear, and has his mouth clamped open to ingest his ear, credit card and... New England clam chowder.

Where do they find this gem? In a huge container, you know, a truck container that contained a ton of shredded person along with garbage. Yum...

So my question is, what came first? Did someone go traipsing through the gazillions of case files that police deal with to find this delightful little tale? Or did someone on the television writing crew come up with this? I think I'd feel better knowing that this came out of criminal files. Because otherwise, this means someone is thinking this up. Tell me how this isn't the making of a serial killer?

Again, eeeiiiuuwwww.

I suppose we all have active imaginations - I do - but if this is what my imagination ran to, I'd never get any sleep. It's just a weensy bit too disturbing. Seriously disgusting. What was funny was that I was behind all of this season's episodes, so I caught up on them all tonight - all six or so of them. The one with the werewolves versus the vampires was amusing; so was the dinosaur one (very cool job, though) and the hoarding one, which touched on a fascinating topic (hoarding, duh) was interesting. And then there was the one with the cop shot, which was rather disturbing and unhappy. And then I got to this one. Which brings us back to "eeeiiiuuwwww".

Yikes.

In the bad shooting episode, there was a brief scene where Sara Sidle is being shown a new program that has a full database of gang related crimes, ballistics, names, etc. In that scene, Sara tells the guy working with the software that the COD (cause of death) was from multiple GSWs. On the screen, it reads "multiple G.S.W.'s. WHY? Why does no one see this? The abuse of the apostrophe is unbelievable. Even people who normally write really well do this! AAAAAAA! Who missed this?!

I give up on the human race where the premise of good writing. Most people just can't handle it.

Interesting Aftermath a From Season Five of "MasterChef"

Do I agree with this? You will have to read it first and decide for yourself. I had long since made up my mind before finding this article. MasterChef Season 5 Fixed: Courtney Lapresi Won Finale After Getting Preferential Treatment – Former Stripper Favoritism BY  STORMY ELIZABETH  ON SEPTEMBER 23, 2014 "They say if you can’t take the heat, you should get out of the kitchen, but what if you like it hot? If you’ve been watching  MasterChef this season 5 , you may have noticed that one contestant in particular seems to  be “winning” challenges  when her dishes don’t seem to be quite up to it.  Courtney Lapresi  has been billed as an “aerial dancer” on the show. So what exactly is that, you ask? It’s a fancy word for stripper. You may term what she does as burlesque, but nekked is nekked and she takes off her  clothes  when she dances, so you have to call them as you see them. Plus is it really...

The Longairc-Green Family

This is a family that was on Nanny 911 , the precursor to Supernanny , which airs on Wednesday nights. While Supernanny is a better production and leaves out some of the dopey American-isms of stupidity (such as the opening scene with a much older nanny head whose television showing the family and their issues turns around into a painting on the wall), this show has its value. These families are clueless or don't bother to try and definitely need help. This family is an exception in that the mother couldn't care less what the monsters do and will do anything to mollify them. The father is more consistent and definitely takes a much more disciplinary stance, but the mother undermines it at every step of the way. The two boys are so unbelievably rude, I'd've killed them where they stood. The little girl only wanted a moment of attention and was not doing anything negative, and the mother was awful to her. The nanny, Nanny Stella, spent the first day observing. When she s...

Shocking!

I always open my day at work by starting up my various programs that I'll bounce back and forth between throughout the insanity that is my normal workday. And they are always in the same order: Internet Outlook Microsoft Excel Microsoft Word The timekeeping program, GenPro, is always running. This is not me being unbelievably anal or just a little OCD, this is logic. I know excatly where everything is. It's just good organisational skills. When I open Outlook it is almost entirely for the e-mail. Yes, I do know how to use all of Outlook (well, 80% of it, any way, but since I use my belovèd Franklin Covey Time Management system (the physical book, not the electronic solution), I only use Outlook for e-mail. What is so shocking, you may ask? Be patient, I'm getting to that. I open the Internet and the default page is Wikipedia, in English. I happen to love that site and skim over whatever interesting things it may have, such as: Today's Featured Article The word thou was...
