News of the Stupid
Apr. 1st, 2007 10:08 pmOk, so I'm sitting here watching Fox 5 News at 10, mainly because the couch has been holding me hostage since I ate. The newscaster (Lorraine Benton, I think is her name) is going through some traffic accidents & mentions a fatality at Coral Shores & something-about-Gulls. The guy was on a motorcycle, probably speeding, hit a large rock, flew through the air & died of injuries. The newscaster paused & added, dramatically and emphatically, "Metro reported, he was not wearing a seatbelt!"
He was on a freakin' motorcycle! A motorcycle! Last time I checked, motorcycles do not come with seatbelts. Unless maybe it's one of those super-fancy Goldwings that are more like mobile homes on two wheels than real motorcycles anyway.
