Looks like I've been wrong on two accounts in the last week.

First, the impromptu law enforcement convention that was held on our street was apparently not drug-related at all. According to our local weekly's police log, the response was for a domestic dispute involving a knife. The amount of police response seemed a little excessive, but the next entry in the log - about 20 minutes later - was from a guy who was bleeding. Better safe than sorry, I suppose.

Should have seen this coming, given that all the previous police visits we've seen to the building have been domestic dispute-related. But expectations tend to climb when you see guys in vests and such.

My other boo-boo was denigrating the Little Leaguers from Portsmouth. Turns out they got thumped in their second game, but did well enough in their other games to get out of pool play. They did lose a US semifinal game in pretty convincing fashion, but weren't the pushovers I originally thought they were. Mea culpa.
