My Life
I see everyone got a kick about what happened last week. Well I'm back, and one day, I will have the whole gang back and we will do it again. I made it Sango and Miroku because of Tuesday's Episode this week. Anyway, I've had the best day, but the worst day, on Friday. As it turned out, my dog, Blue, was put to sleep. We had his funneral yesterday. I ended up making it a Japanese-style Funneral. I still look to the little bed I made for him and set it right next to the computer, he would always be right there when I'm having a writer's block and stuff that makes me go berserk on the computer. Like it freezing up and the internet being slow. The best part, believe it or not, was that I was in a bus crash. No, I didn't meet any celebrities or anything, but it was fun. Let's see if I can describe it, okay we hit a tree, the engine blew, a side-veiw mirror fell off, and the 7 of us who were all alone on the bus (except for the busdriver of course) had a much more fun than we did riding the bus. Although a few people said we are going to die, we just laughed the whole time after all the screams were done.
Oh, and I bet all of you know Valentine's Day is coming up. Well that's the whole reason why I changed my site theme, except for the fact I'm going to change it every month. Anyway, I was looking through my Whodunits book that I got for Christmas and I found a Valentine's Mystery. So I decided to write a contest, the people who get it right by the end of the week, will go through a second round. If there is only one, then there's our winner. The winner get's a special prize for their site like a banner or avatar of the theme they choose. So here it is; and this is credited to Hy Conrad, the author of the book. Oh and please PM me the answer, I don't think you want people reading your answer in the comment's box and cheating off it.
Pre-Valentine's Day Murder
It was the day before Valentine's Day and the police in the small college town were unprepared for any crime beyond the amourous escapedes of a few undergraduates.
Late that afternoon a patrol car canvassed Oakveiw, a small off-campus apartment building. The officers found the body of Gilly Tarpin, a homeless drifter. He was a nondescript man of normal build, lying in the shelter of an open garage bay. THe officers made an inventory of Gilly's possessions: a wristwatch (looking new, except for a vertical crease on the leather band inside the clasp), a box of chocolates (with half the contents eaten), and a crumpled pre-printed note saying "Be My Valentine."
The authorities assumed it was a natural death, caused by the exposure to the February chill. But then the mandatory autopsy came back. There was poison in the homeless man's system. An identical poison was found in the chocolates.
The police interviewed three Oakveiw residents, hoping for some clue as to why anyone would poison a homeless drifter.
"I used to talk to him," said Brick Darden, the school's star fullback. "He was always hanging around, bumming cigarettes and loose change. The guy had absolutely nothing, but he was harmless"
Sawyer Prescott III had a less charitable opinion. "He was a thief, " sniffed the heavyset millionaire student. "A ring disappeared from my apartment. The very next day I saw it in a pawn shop. The shop owner said he forgot who sold it to him, but I know it was that Gilly character."
Peter Peaver held the opposite opinion. "Sure he begged money," said the featherweight math major. "But Gilly was basically honest. We often forget to lock our apartments, and I never found anything missing."
"A homeless guy is poisoned with cany chocolates on the day before Valentine's Day," the homicide captain thought aloud. "I have a hunch how it happened-and a pretty good idea who did it."
Whodunit? And what made the captain suspicious? (you don't have to write an answer to the second question)
Also I just wanted to add this picture. I found it when I was looking for Miroku and Sango pictures, and this is one of my favorites.

Rails Missing; it's hard to keep track...
BERLIN (Reuters) - Thieves have dismantled and carted away some 5 kms (3 miles) of disused rail track close to the German town of Weimar, railway operator Deutsche Bahn said on Friday.
The railway operator said the thieves would probably sell the tracks as scrap metal with the damage amounting to at least 200,000 euros ($241,500).
Deutsche Bahn said it had noticed the missing track after the mayor of a town alongside the train line phoned in to check if the dismantling was planned.
"This was a major criminal operation, because you cannot simply take the tracks and carry them away," said a spokesman for the rail operator.
