My wife was born on April 20, too. I never think of it as “the killing season.”

Our family celebrates several happy occasions in April. The Franklin Regional stabbings were at a school where we have been several times for various events. It hurts to think that so many people think so little of human life.

I always wanted someone famous to share my birthday with, but the only thing of significance seems to be the Rodney King beating.
