I hope they go after and charge whoever called it in for wasting everyones time.

WTF?

I think one reason it went crazy was the fact that until recently the son of the man that owns the house had lived there and he is a known sex offender. Could be why they went so gung-ho???? Strange....

You were getting worried someone had found where you buried all the trolls?

Nah, that wasn't a mass grave; these were mass graves.

So, it turns out they are now investigating this so called psychic. She is described as being 4'2", long dark hair, a wart on the side of her nose and carrying a crystal ball.

Police are said to be looking for a short medium at large.

Everybody knows we bury the bodies in west Texas. Houston is too swampy.

There's a disturbing trend of over-reaction and excessive, inordinate use of force by law enforcement. When you have a hammer, everything looks like a nail. An increasingly paramilitary police force, with paramilitary tactics, are creating a frightening them-and-us division, and whether they are doing so knowingly, or this is just a by-product, it's a very disturbing trend.

In 1980, SWAT was used less than 3,000 times. Now, they are used over 50,000 per year.

They were probably just finished watching "Law & Order SVU" guest starring Martin Short. he played a Pshycic who wanted to help the Cops.

Turns out he was the sicko who was raping and killing all the Virgins.

Sorry for the False Alarm - All the Networks were having hissy-fits.

Another twist to this story is that when the law officers went into the house there was a copy of The Changling by the TV. Quite a coincidence really..

Except that there weren't any bodies there.
