Fuck, I hope this isn't my fault

Attention psychos:

When I idly mused that Carolyn Bennett is a strange choice of target for sabotage, I wasn't saying that you should go out and find a better target! I was just thinking out loud is all!

Shit.

Also: check out the photo in the CBC article linked above. That graffiti is in absolutely gorgeous handwriting! I can't write that beautifully with a pen and paper and all the time in the world, but this person did it with spray paint on a vertical surface, presumably in the dark and presumably in a hurrt. That's quite a skill set, especially in combination with the knowledge and tools to cut brake lines and phone lines. If this was a police procedural, that would be all the information they need right there.

Also: it would be helpful if the media would include in their reporting tips on what (if anything) a driver can do to check if their brake lines have been cut before they start driving.

Also, everyone should learn the difference between the words "break" and "brake". You wouldn't believe how many bloggers wrote that people's "break lines were cut". Many had it in their titles. Argh.
