November 28, 2004 COULD THIS AFFECT MY JOB? A driving instructor, on the way to teach a driving class, drove off the side of the Everett Turnpike in Merrimack, N.H., and crashed into a post. Police came and arrested him for drunken driving. SLEEP TIGHT, DON'T LET THE BEDBUGS BITE: A woman wanted to
celebrate her birthday with her boyfriend and a San Diego bar, but
couldn't find a babysitter for her 7-year-old son. MMMPH, WHA? NO, CALL LATER: Kentucky officials set up an automated telephone survey on disaster preparedness programmed to call people between 4 p.m. and 9 p.m. But instead of stopping at 9, it continued to call people until four o'clock the next morning. Amazingly, people weren't really angry. They just said they were too sleepy to answer any questions. DON'T WORRY, I'M HERE, HONEY: A Salt Lake City man was hailed
as a hero when he rescued his wife, two young children and the dog from
their burning second-story apartment. DON'T TELL ME TO WATCH WHERE I'M GOING! ... CRASH! A man was riding down the street in Columbus, Ohio, with a 12-pack of beer in one hand while drinking a beer with the other. One car swerved to miss him, but the other hit the guy, bouncing him off the windshield and sending him and the beer flying. The driver will not be charged, but Mr. Brewski will.
