It is fantastic! Dexter is a serial killer and cop who kills other serial killers! The supplies reminded me of the show! heh Dexter is played by the guy from "Six Feet Under." I think his name is Michael C. Hall. He is amazing and creepy! Love him! Is he gay in real life?

I'll have you all know that there are several fine gas stations in beautiful Cheney, Washington, along with a Bi-Mart and a Ben Franklin's Craft Store.

I skipped 45 days of school that year.
And @11: probably lecturing at EWU, the college campus with more Brutalist architecture than I've seen anywhere outside Berlin. It's like a Stalinist party for concrete!

I recently finished rereading Truman Capote's In Cold Blood. The killers wanted to get black stockings to use as masks. Since they thought it would look too suspicious getting them at the same place as their other supplies they tried a Catholic hospital to see if they could buy them from a nun.

You're much more likely to find one in Seattle than in a town like Cheney.

Then it gets all queasy and defensive.

But seriously, all I'm saying is that I think it disingenuous of Sloggers to remove comments because commenters are saying things that might upset the family of a missing man, and then post about a one-stop shopping location for serial killers.

It's struggling a bit lately, especially with the Bi-Mart going in, but it's still a good store for a college town.

Liberty's having it tough lately with all the snow--they've missed 10 days of school so far because of all the back roads getting drifted over.

Or are you just trying to reinforce stupid stereotypes? Your lesbian friends, who have actually visited a hardware store, could tell you; that while it is unlikely that one would find them all an one wall, all these items (plus shovels) are readily available for one stop, albeit not one aisle, shopping. In fact if you are on a budget you can find them all at a dollar store. By the way, I have rope, duct tape, gloves, a hatchet and a shovel in my truck, also a fire extinguisher, first aid kit, a couple of blankets, water, an assortment of tools and jumper cables, Oh, I also have a couple of flashlights and a Sharpie™

Hall is a lot cuter in Dexter than he was in Six Feet. Don't know why - could be the hair.

Anyway, he's married but separated. Rumors persist. Consider this blind item:

This cable B list actor who is now getting a shot at the big time wanted everyone to believe that his separation from his wife was all about not getting along and not making their schedules work. The actual problem was that he couldn't get away from his boyfriend enough to make his wife happy.
