I just heard the news about Riley's car. It was vandalized last Saturday. There is no
doubt Jordan did it. I went to the bowling alley that night. I bowled a 160! Anyway, I
saw Jordan there and, although it was barely noticeable, I definitely saw paint on
Jordan's shirt. It is unlikely there would be paint on Jordan's shirt unless Jordan had
spray-painted Riley's car. It is a shame, really, since it was such a nice shirt. It was the
green one. Oh, and you know Jordan has motive. After all, Jordan has a well-known
grudge against Riley. You remember when Riley borrowed Jordan's lawnmower and
did not return it. And there was opportunity, because Jordan does not work on the
weekend and usually stays home watching television. But the lightning storm earlier
last week short-circuited Jordan's TV set. Besides, they canceled Jordan's favorite
Saturday evening show.
