The "bag man"

It looks as if the NYPD has caught the latest serial killer operating in the city, Salvatore Perrone --


-- yet another sociopath with those weirdly thin lips. (Can't explain it, can't think why it would be so, but I keep seeing it.)

John--Hey man, you're treading on this ice when talking about thin lips as I've been accused of. After all, when I looked up in the dictionary "caucasian" it said "thin lipped" describing me. Now I have to live with the idea that I might be a bad guy because I have thin lips! Just another burden I have to bear. Well, at least I have lips, rather than those like Dan Rather who has no lips. Anyway, thin lips does not confer to being a serial killer, but also doesn't help either, I guess. Thanks for the interesting article. Brian

Brian --
Don't take this the wrong way. I never said that all people with thin lips are evil, merely that a surprisingly high percentage of the (heterosexual, white) serial killers seem to have thin lips. I know it sounds nutty, and I can't think of an explanation as to why, but it's something I keep seeing again and again.

John--Hey, for all we know there is such a correlation, but of course, just one facet among many. No, I don't take this personally, however, I've been made fun of (jokingly) by my Eurasian family that I'm a "thin lipped Caucasian". Thanks, Brian

I know you were joking. And as far as your family, just chalk that up to jealousy. (And, well, maybe a little suspicion.)
