So February 2010 comes to a close. Thirty-eight (38) murders... Compared ta Feb. 2009's 40, and Feb. 2008... a reduction. Of sorts. But there is progress. Of sorts.
Perhaps the murderers have killed almost everybody on their lists? Time ta start new lists!
Uh-oh...revise those numbers. The final tally:

But they promise ta drive the numbers up...once the snow clears!

Finally...Philly murderers figure out ya don't always need a gub ta kill somebody. Nope. There's dozens of methods... Beatings. Tossing somebody off a roof. Poison. Stabbings. Blunt force trauma. Car. Truck. Bus. [Al deliberate of course!] Pushing victim in front of moving train. [Not light rail!] Drowning. Freezing victim. [Slow] Burning victim. [Fast. Painful]
Perhaps the thugs in Philly have woken up, and realized ya can kill quietly, without a gub.
Finally.

3 shot at Schaumburg convenience store
Updated at 10:29 PM today
March 10, 2010 (SCHAUMBURG, Ill.) (WLS) -- There was a shooting at a convenience store in northwest suburban Schaumburg Wednesday night.
Police say two teens and a 12-year-old were shot around 8:30 p.m. at a 7-11 near Bode and Gannon.
A 12-year old and a 16-year old are listed in critical condition. Another teenager suffered a graze wound.
Witnesses say the victims were walking onto the store's parking lot when someone drove by and opened fire.
"It's way too early to have an idea on a motive. It's pretty shocking to have three teenagers struck like that so were looking at every possibility right now its pretty random it looks," said Sgt. John Nebel, Schaumburg Police Department. "We don't have this happen very often in Schaumburg."
ABC7 will have more information on the shooting Thursday on our news beginning at 5 a.m.

Troll's likely ta discover a few in the back 40 come spring... Overflow from Philly!
A church musician whose gun-packing fellow congregants offered backup, a taxi driver whose cab crash was caused by a bullet and a diner patron who got caught up in a breakfast brawl were among victims of violence in the city over the weekend.
Shortly before 5 a.m. yesterday, a large fight between two factions of men broke out inside the Aramingo Diner, in Port Richmond.
The fight, fueled by alcohol and "just stupid, macho stuff," according to an East Detectives investigator, escalated into an all-out brawl involving more than 20 people.
Punches were thrown and property damage inside the diner, on Aramingo Avenue near Ontario Street, ranged from broken gumball machines to broken tables, police said. About 50 patrons were inside at the time, according to police.
"It was crazy, it was a mess," the detective said.
At one point, a 21-year-old man pulled out a gun and shot a 28-year-old man from the opposing group once in the head, police said.
The shooter, whose name was not released, ran off but was apprehended at his mother's house, police said. He was expected to be charged with attempted murder and related offenses. Police said that he had 20 prior arrests.
The victim, who is from out of town, was listed in critical condition yesterday at Hahnemann University Hospital. His identity was not released.
The weekend's violence started about 9 p.m. Friday, when Julio Augustine, 21, was fatally shot on the block where he lived, Rutledge Street near Cambria, in Kensington. Shot multiple times in the torso, he was pronounced dead at the scene.
Shortly after that, at 10:20 p.m., a musician with the Dunamis Temple Church, on Germantown Avenue near 9th Street, in North Philadelphia, was outside the church when he argued with a passer-by, police said.
Either that passer-by or a man who was with him pulled out a black semi-automatic handgun and shot the 23-year-old musician in the arm, back and chest, according to police.
Two of the musician's fellow congregants, who were licensed to carry firearms, came to the victim's aid, returning fire at his attackers, police said.
It's unknown whether either of the men, who fled on foot, was hit.
The victim, who was taken to Temple University Hospital, remained there yesterday in critical condition.
Less than two hours later, shortly after midnight Saturday, police were called to 61st and Ludlow streets, in West Philadelphia, for a report of an auto accident.
Investigators found that the car in question - a black-and-white taxi - had crashed into a pole and that the driver had been shot once in the back of the head, according to police.
The driver, Aliou Diallo, 50, of Lindbergh Boulevard near Buist Avenue, was taken to the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, where he was pronounced dead at 3:38 p.m.
It's not certain whether robbery was a motive for the shooting, because cash was found at the scene, police said.
Investigators also were seeking a motive in the death of Darryl Walton, 16, who was found at 11:17 p.m. Saturday on Euclid Street near Georges Lane, in Wynnefield, with a bullet wound to his upper left back.
Walton, of Montgomery Avenue near 52nd Street, was pronounced dead at the scene by medics at 11:29 p.m.
