Last Time She Leaves Her Glass on My Dresser!

A 98-year-old woman was indicted Friday on a second-degree murder charge that alleges she strangled her 100-year-old nursing home roommate after making the victim's life "a living hell" because she thought the woman was "taking over the room."

Indulge me in some black humor here. Yes, it is very sad, but that had to be one of the slowest murders imaginable.

I am also chuckling over the man who killed his wife - he wanted to take down the Christmas lights and she didn't, so the solution was to shoot her in the head with a .22 rifle. That's one argument they won't be having again!

Why do I laugh at these things? To cope. Because the tragedy that seems to come around the holidays can be overwhelming.

Don't tell anyone though - I cracked up too.
