If the butcher sends up a piece of tough streak just before dinner time one may overcome one’s annoyance by holding one’s head over the gas stove and inhaling several deep breaths of gas.

Wikipedia says: The Bath School disaster, sometimes known as the Bath School massacre, was a series of violent attacks perpetrated by Andrew Kehoe on May 18, 1927, in Bath Township, Michigan, that killed 38 elementary schoolchildren and 6 adults and injured at least 58 other people. Kehoe killed his wife and firebombed his farm, then detonated an explosion in the Bath Consolidated School, before committing suicide by detonating a final device in his truck. It is the deadliest mass murder to take place at a school in United States history.

From Wikipedia: Marie-Florentine Roger (in some sources Royer, 1869-?), better known by her English-sounding model name Sarah Brown, probably an affectation due to her Celtic-looking long red hair and pale skin, was a French artist’s model famous as the “Queen of Bohemia” in 1890s Paris. Her arrest along with three other well known artists’ models for posing scantily clad as part of tableau vivant floats at the 1893 Bal des Quat'z'Arts in Paris’ Latin Quarter, provoked one of the most famous student riots of the late nineteenth century. She modeled for Jules Lefebrve, Georges Rochegrosse, and Frederick MacMonnies among others.

Is any man good enough to decide that another must live willy nilly, to suffer pain and distress beyond hope and help?
