1997 -- In November in Santa Maria, Texas, Luis Martinez Jr., 25, was
stabbed in the neck with a broken bottle by his uncle, allegedly to punish
Martinez for not sharing his bag of Frito's. In October a 20-year-old man
was hospitalized in Guthrie, Okla., after encouraging his friend, Jason
Heck, to kill a millipede with a .22-caliber rifle; after two ricochets,
Heck's bullet hit the man just above his right eye, fracturing his skull.
