"We're not going to allow one individual to disrupt our education, to disrupt our lives, to disrupt our economy."

- Maryland Gov. Parris Glendenning, responding to the sniper currently shooting people in Washington, D.C.

With today's fatal shooting the count for the sniper stands at eight dead, two critically injured. But don't worry, residents, we will not let the economy be affected! Our economy is sniper proof! This most recent shooting took place at another gas station. Perhaps the sniper is some kind of environmentalist. Or a fundamentalist Christian.

Cincinnati at Indianapolis — This Bengals' team really could use a hug. Remember that one Keanu Reeves' movie where someone said, "Life is about showing up," and made it seem like a big deal? Like being a neurosurgeon is just a taxi ride away from the emergency room, or being father-of-the-year means knowing which cul-de-sac to make a left turn into? Here's a little FYI for you: The Bengals will show up on Sunday. Their owner will make sure of it. The Bengals will run onto the field, and for a few moments, under the high wattage lights of the dome, the score will be 0-0, and then, as a direct result of showing up, the Colts will hand them their soup, repeatedly. The only question is, how do they like it served? My instincts tell me it will be served cold, creamed and in the nuts. Hard. Prediction: Indianapolis.
