And On A Lighter Note...

So Dogpatch made the national news last night. And which civic virtue landed us on ABC's World News Tonight?

Elder abuse!

If you want to talk elder abuse, let's start with Diane Sawyer's makeup. Yikes. She looked like a drag queen.

But I digress.

It seems the head of one of the area's larger retirement homes got fed up with some of his uppity elderly charges and decided the best solution was to drug them into a stupor with psychotropic drugs.

"Grandma used to be so feisty, but then we could never wake her up..."

Grandma is dead now, and she isn't alone, which is why the plan unravelled.

Evidently one poor woman was dosed for simply glaring at the guy.

And to think, if he really wanted to incapacitate the residents all he needed to do was let them drink the local tap water.
