Color Me Dead

Ah, the joys of remodeling: Couples can spend endless hours bickering and picking out the perfect colors of paint. Usually, the arguments subside and life goes on, possibly in a home with Provence Creme walls and Morning Sunshine trim. But a German man found out the hard way just how stressful redecorating can be on a relationship when his Polish wife of 30 years stabbed him in the heart amid an argument over what color to paint their house. "It's a tragic story," said a Hamburg police spokeswoman of the man's death. Police, who said the couple had been drinking, could not pin down the colors the couple had been considering.
