 No, I'm not sure he's retarded. In fact, my brother claims that
 maybe he's pretending to be retarded. Although he (johnny) might
 not be able to respond emotionally (if he's autistic), he might
 still be capable of completing an action that would kill good
 'ole Laura. If Johnny did not kill, then what is his significance??

 Unrelated Sidenote: A used bookstore recently opened in my home town (pop.
 20,000) After going there, I told by brother that the woman who ran
 the store was kinda like the log lady. In the next several weeks, since we
 didn't know her name, we would say things like "are we going to see the
 log lady today?" Then one day, my brother was looking over the books in
 the small store and heard some music emitting from the woman's cassette
 player near her desk. Although it sounded familiar, the volume was very
 low and so my brother couldn't identify it. He then asked the log lady 
 what the music was. She replied that it was music from Twin Peaks. (fill
 in appropriate twilight zone music.) That is why I don't find TP people
 strange, my hometown is filled with such people......
