Knock Knock... Who's There?... It's a Bum Eating Your Cheese and Sleeping in Your Child's Bed

Many things go bump in the night. Sometimes it's the wind. Other times it's a machete carrying hockey mask wearing psycho who wants to kill you and all those naughty teenagers what with the sex and the doobies.

Or maybe, if you live in Billings Montana (and who doesn't?) it may just be Tracy Mullins, a 47 year old man who looks eerily like Charles Manson but in reality has no more evil intentions than to eat your cheese and sleep it off in whatever bed happens to be handy.

Last Monday a woman in Billings was awoken at 8:30AM by the sound of snoring coming from her child's room. She investigated, found Mullins, woke her husband, and went to the neighbor's house to call the police. Meanwhile, her husband menaced Mullins with an unloaded shotgun, keeping him there until the police arrived.

Apparently Mullins is crazy and he has been receiving treatment. One interesting note from the story is the tid bit that he 'made a mess' in the bathroom. What exactly does that mean? Did he pee on the floor? Did he poop in the shower? Or did he just leave a towel on the floor? I hate it when they leave out the details.

The guys trial began last Thursday. I'll be hoping for an update.

About 7 years ago I lived in Sioux Falls, and a dude broke into my apartment and ate a bowl of cereal. He even put the bowl in the sink when he was done...very respectable psycho if I do say so myself...sometimes a guy just has to get his snack on.
