A quiet day in the Blotter with only one person getting shot. (Oh, and a quick observation about yesterday's Blotter: A woman was in critical condition at Johns Hopkins Hospital after she was shot Monday morning by a man she knows. The woman was walking in the 400 block of N. Broadway about 9 a.m. when the man began to chase her. During the pursuit, he fired several shots, hitting the woman once in the left shoulder. This puts the shooting somewhere between the Sidney Kimmel Comprehensive Cancer Center at Johns Hopkins (401 N. Broadway) and the creatively named "500 Broadway" building at Johns Hopkins. I wonder how much news coverage this shooting would have received if one of those "several shots" hit someone besides the intended target.)

Another addition to the department of screwed up web sites: the city government has added fuel to the BGE fire by creating a site that incorrectly calculates your new electric bill rates. BGE claims their equipment wasn't involved and it wasn't their fault.

wow, according to this WJZ story, the grody burnt human remains found in waldorf were just the lower half of the man's body. the upper half was found somewhere in prince george's county, they arrested a guy in waldorf for it, and guess where the victim was actually killed? that's right, baltimore!
Gee, do you think the O'Malley administration will report it as a murder, ... or will that spokesweasel Jablow insist it was only 1/2 ?
Hm, that's a good question... what counts legally, where someone was killed or where the body is found? I'm still trying to wrap my head around a person (or people, I would assume) killing someone, cutting him in half (what would you even use? Not a tool from your average kitchen), dumping half here and half there and setting the torso on fire... an awful lot of bother, mess and risk. I guess it's someone who ran afoul of a gang leader who's got something to prove. Too much work to just be some psycho.
