Things are out of control.
Key Quote:"Malone followed the car through Snotty and the Zodiac Club's parking lot eventually the suspect jumped out of the car and ran on foot," Isaac said
Snotty and the Zodiac Club?
Update question: He ran on foot?

Just another reminder that the most common side effect of illegal drugs is to make you stoopid.

If your name was "Nehemiah," you might want to use illegal drugs, too!

Bizzare indeed. Of course some people dont need drugs any to be stupid but the quote for me was "Malone was responding to a call about a house fire..." when he noticed a speeding car ... gasp ... shock ... horror

"Snotty and the Zodiac"?! Hey, that would be a pretty good name for a nightclub in Eutaw!
I think once that Iranian frog-child grows up, we can look forward to LOTS of headlines like this. Even if he doesn't move to Eutaw. God only knows what the hot nighclubs in Tehran will be named in 2025.

This exemplifies the dangers of regionalism (see masthead). Which begs the question... What are John Kerry's two positions on regionalism?

Eutaw? Demopolis? Reporters writing news stories in the first person and assuming what a subject "thought"?
Did I just cross a certain line, and everybody knows it but me?
Oh -- never mind! It's from Alabama. And it's summer intern season. (Does that mean we can shoot 'em, like tourists?)

That is a powerful use of the literary device of repetition.

And this is what you get when you click on "News" in the menu bar: A photo of a truck in a creek (or "crick") with this cutline, also written by Patrick Ellis (who apparently is the sole writer):
A red 1967 Chevrolet Custom pickup truck hydroplaned off of Alabama Highway 43 through the trees and brush on Thursday. The truck once it finally came to rest ended up sideways in the canal by Parrs Chevron in Demopolis. The driver wasn't injured, but his father was very upset over the fact the classic truck was damaged.

and all ths time I thought *I* was Mr. Toad!
How can they charge him with 'eluding' if
they caught him?

At first I thought it was Eutaw as in "Sawlt Laik Sitty."
Posted by: Stash | June 29, 2004 at 12:46 PM
Am I the only one who wondered why 7 law enforcement officials couldn't catch this guy running "on foot", but had to settle for towing his car?
Posted by: looney girl | June 29, 2004 at 01:59 PM
No looney, you are not... I wondered the same thing myself...
Posted by: leigh7911 | June 29, 2004 at 02:11 PM
Yeah, he got away on foot. Just the one, though.
Posted by: Sharlit | June 29, 2004 at 03:05 PM
"ran on foot"
As opposed to pegleg (Har).

Sorry... just needed an excuse to quote Mallrats...

Is Eutaw the way stupid people spell Utah?
