Wow. Carla completely annihilated Rose. Rose tried, and tried to be aggressive, but Carla just went all Homolka on her and now Rose is dead and Carla’s testifying against her husband and getting out of jail in no time at all, and man, this got dark fast.
Hey, question to my non-Canadian friends. Was the Paul Bernardo/Karla Homolka thing even on your news? Like, has anyone here even heard of that whole thing? (If a real discussion gets going about this here, involving more than 5 people, I will give everyone involved a point – consider that your Easter Egg for this card).
