Perhaps calling the perpetrator the Burning Bed Bandit was an over dramatization on my part. All we really know is that somebody left an old bed by the side of the road and that it appeared to have been set on fire. We don't even know if the dumper and the fire setter were the same person. Usually, when a back woods litterer is apprehended, it's because a letter or something with the guy's name on it is found among the trash, like in the old Arlo Guthrie story "Alice's Restaurant". In this case, the bed may have been burned to obliterate any identifying marks, or it may have been some kids just screwing around.
The latest Russian troop movements in Ukraine might be a tactical withdrawal to consolidate their gains, or it may be that they need a respite from getting their asses shot off trying to take Kyiv. Either way, it doesn't appear that they are planning to go home any time soon. Bummer!
