From News of the Weird I note this fascinating item:
Three teenagers with paintball guns terrorized kids on a playground until they fired into the wrong group of kids, one of whom returned fire with a real gun, wounding two paintballers (Pittsburgh).
It looks like the old grade-school admonishment, "It's all fun and games until someone loses an eye", should now be changed to "It's all fun and games until someone gets shot."
Also via the same site, any of my readers who sire male children in the future might want to avoid a certain middle name. I've never put much stock in the idea that a person's name steers the course of their life or determines their eventual personality, but this is just scary.
