From high above the earth, hours after a crazy gunman opened fire in a shopping center parking lot, came these words:
As I look out the window, I see a very beautiful planet that seems very inviting and peaceful. Unfortunately, it is not.
We’re better than this. We must do better.
GOOD MORNING: However, that greeting depended largely on what, exactly, Mother Nature had in store for us weather-wise as I began this column for the midweek edition of The Times Monday morning.
It was, as most readers here in Franklin County were well aware, cloudy, uncomfortably cold and expected to get much worse, as the day wore on, with the possibility of (perish the thought) snow, sleet and/or freezing rain in the late afternoon, evening and overnight hours.
When I was coming up, a popular threat went something like this: even the president can get touched.
It meant that no matter what the consequences might be, if someone wanted to do you harm, they could.
That point was driven home both nationally and locally this past week.

Dear Editor:
