IN FLORIDA, THIS IS CALLED 'PARKING'

The car drove through the front windows of the Bedding Experts store in the 4800 block of West Dempster Street about 9 p.m. Wednesday, according to Skokie fire officials. It traveled 20 to 25 feet into the store, shattering glass and smashing into beds, officials said.

20 to 25 feet into the store? Sounds like a perfect landing to me. Might as well just paint the lines for the parking spot around the car right where it sits.

Bothersome quote: "I think she probably would have went through the other wall if it wasn't for the Tempur-Pedic."

So ... "product placement" is now usin' the "news" to further their own agenda ... I guess that means that the "reporters" are gettin' payola frum the business world every time they use a brand-name in their stories ... *gonna refrain frum usin' a descriptive werd about such folks here* ...

She was in a hurry flurry to get there before the store closed at 9 p.m....She barely made it, but
forgot why she came....? Hypothetical but possible...

There seems to be a lot of this lately. I wonder if we need to revise those drivers manuals that no one ever reads ?

The car's sleep number was 23.

Well, there's the problem, right there - 23 is WAY too soft for alert driving!

Asleep at the wheel. Tsk. Tsk.
