Granby, Colorado - Marv the Muffler Man was angry with everyone on the Granby Town Council, and he stayed angry. Marv Heemeyer, owner of the local muffler shop, had a long standing dispute with the city Coucil and his neighbor, Mountain Park Concrete. On Friday afternoon, Marv jumped into a D9 bulldozer which he had fortified himself, and began a drive down the main street of Granby. The first stop was the buildings of the concrete shop which Marv flattened one by one, despite the efforts of the owner to stop him with a front loader. Marv then headed toward Granby proper, brushing aside like flies two county workers in earth movers who tried to head him off. Phones in town rang with the opposite of 911, as emergency workers urged people to flee their homes. Mountain Parks Electric, the local utility company was next. After that, Marv targeted Maple Street Builders, pushing a yellow pick-up truck completely through the building. The Town Hall and Library followed in close order. After that, the local playground and two police cars were the next to bite the dust. Liberty Savings came down after them. Then Marv took down the building which housed the local newspaper whose publisher had taken an editorial stance against Marv in his long standing dispute with City Hall. Next came XGel Energy and the home of the former town mayor. The final target was Gambles Hardware where the D9 came to a stop inside the destroyed building. Onlookers heard a single shot and then nothing more. Mr. Heemeyer had taken his own life. Amazingly, no one else in Grandby was killed or even injured during this afternoon of wanton rampage.

And you guys on the East Coast think you have it bad!

Is it true that while this was happening, Marv was yelling -

"ALL YOUR BASE ARE BELONG TO US"?

Deuling heavy machinery? Cool...............................
