I don't know who exactly you were responding to here, but the
always-happy, Egyptian, Jack in the Box fast-food guy I referred to in
my post - I did not make it clear enough - I did not see him as a
potential serial killer - but more as the one-shot-deal flip-out
artist who kills a bunch of people when he snaps because he just
couldn't take being nice all the time any more. I don't like serial
killers although I find them interesting. I really prefer the one
shot deal type. I would never do it. At least I don't think I
would. But I can identify. I think everyone does at times.
