If Condolences Could Be Bottled


Sunday. Around 3 AM. Two guys are fighting in the street, wrestling, in a town located in the northeastern corner of New York State, AKA NENYland. A car hits both men, killing one, critically injuring the other. The operator of the vehicle is described in the front page article as an “allegedly drunken driver.”

One witness quoted in the article said she saw the driver stumbling all over the road, apparently intoxicated.

The article also notes that someone left some flowers near the scene of the accident, a simple roadside memorial sitting on the grass. A photograph shows the flowers neatly tucked inside a Michelob Light beer bottle.

What a fitting tribute, NENYland style.
