  Fredrikson was having the time of his life. When they begged, he chuckled. When they screamed, he cracked up. When they spasmed, he chortled. When they became silence itself, he cackled. What's more, Fredrikson was able to cause all of these things to happen with stunning regularity; it was like his own personal comedy show! He laughed and he laughed and he laughed, and the more he laughed, the larger the pile of garbage became. Or was it a pile of women's corpses? What's the difference?
