Hard to read

Since my last posting, we moved to Mt. Pleasant, a small community between our two church jobs. The town square reminds us so much of the college where we met in 1971 that we were charmed from the first visit.

The local newspapers, we've learned, might be an unending source of entertainment. I came home this evening after two intense work days and found that my sweetie had circled a paragraph in one of the local papers so that I wouldn't miss it. I actually snorted when I read the following, in an article entitled "Car chase ends by striking house":

According to Mt. Pleasant police chief ____ ______, Miller past an officer while illegibly driving over the speed limit. By the time the officer turned in pursuit, Miller had turned a corner and was out of sight.

I hope that this made you laugh, too. Good night.

Sooo...he couldn't read the speedometer? Good thing he turned a corner instead of into a pumpkin.
