Always believed that a shotgun would be more effective:theband: Just point in the general direction of and pull the trigger. And then dial 911.

Thing is ... with a girlfriend like that, one should be able to come up with a better plan for a romantic evening than killing her.

By the way, I hear that homicide is a popular pastime in the Republic of South Africa. Nkosi Sikeleli Africa.

Tuned in to Sky News at 12.30 to hear whether Pistorius was getting bail. It then took the magistrate two hours explaining his reasons for granting bail, which he could have done in two sentences.

2. Pistorius isn't a flight risk.
