Mass and the films trying to make sense of senseless violence
n 20 April 1999 18-year-old Eric Harris and 17-year-old Dylan Klebold walked into their high school in Columbine, Colorado and, with one act of violence, changed America forever. Harris and Klebold's plan, which they had been working on for over a year, was to set off homemade bombs, but when those failed to detonate they instead walked through the halls and used the four guns they'd acquired to injure 24 people and kill 13 more before taking their own lives.

It'll still be a problem once the adrenaline wears off.

This is your roving reporter Anne O. Nimity – Yes, my parents wanted a girl. Get over it and move on. I’m down at the police station where I have just been speaking with Officer McGruff.

It's a little past midnight and I am sitting alone in my new apartment. Two weeks have passed since the move here, and there's been plenty of time to get accustomed. The place is located at the back-end of a complex of four apartments; it only has one room and bathroom, with a small corridor leading to the kitchen, and it has a/c, which was a must in my book. The environment has been perfect to read and relax, the one thing that impossible for me to do in the place I used to live.
