Welcome to the inaugural edition of The Tomfoolery Report!
On November 24th 2008, I witnessed some outright tomfoolery:
Notice the conspicuous white line on the ground leading to the car... Evidently this guy had a little too much of grandpa's cough syrup before driving this morning. On his way into the parking area, he swung WAY too wide on his right turn, hopped the curb, drove across the grass island, and took out a chunk of the concrete curb. Whoopsy.
After he got the piece of curb lodged underneath his car, he kept on driving... "What's that noise?? Its a funny squeaky sound..." After his attempt to drive his high-centered car off the curb chunk did nothing but leave a sweet white line on the asphalt, he got out and gave the piece of curb a good swift kick... Lets think this through mathematically....
(2,000 lb. car/1 curb chunk) + 1 drunk man kick = FAIL.
So, he just walked off and left it until he'd sobered up a little.
Later in the day I came outside to find his car gone. I'm sure he had to jack his car up to get the concrete out from under there, its a shame I didn't get to witness that. However, he was nice enough to leave the chunk of curb in the parking area for someone else to hit.
This has been The Tomfoolery Report.
