Wow. I missed our local news about this tonite but just caught up with things on cnn.com.

Reporting now that the shooter was a psychiatrist who was going to be deployed to Iraq and wasn't happy about that. Of Jordanian background but he was born in Virginia and graduated from VT.

Yes, 'psychiatrist'.

Tragic.

I was stationed at Fort Hood during the Luby's Massacre.
Waco happened a year later.
Central Texas breeds crazy, I think.

Shooter is from DC...http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/11/05/AR2009110503467.html?hpid=topnews

Apparently alive, but in critical condition.

Sad situation.

Sorry, I got distracted bt Project Runway. (Thank DOG Logan is finally gone)

Luby's was a strange day. We went out to lunch (Whataburger, I think) and saw all of the emergency vehicles and stuff. We heard about it on the radio as we watched. Crazy.
