Eksempler fra This Is True

SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS: A police officer in Burlington, Mass., was a bit surprised when investigating a suspicious person call to discover the suspect was just out for a jog. At 11:30 at night. In the nude. Steven J. Claiborne, 43, was charged with indecent exposure, but officers couldn't figure out his motive.
»He was completely sober,« a police spokesman said, »and didn't seem to have any mental problems.« »He was talking like a rational person,« the spokesman added. »Talking about computers.« (Lowell Sun)
...Fools! That's the very definition of a mental health emergency!

THE BIG ONE THAT DIDN'T GET AWAY: Keith Blauvelt was fishing near Sea Girt, N.J., when he hooked something strange. »I thought it was a piece of wood and then I realized it was moving,« he says. »I said, 'I think I see a dog,' and my dad looked at me like I was crazy. But my brother said, 'It is a dog'.« Not just any dog, a pit bull. The animal had fallen off a boat into the water while its owner was scuba diving.
Shortly after Lorraine Rooker surfaced to find her dog was gone, the Coast Guard called her to say Blauvelt had found it, and it was OK. »It was like terror« when she couldn't find it, she said. (AP)
...As opposed to the warm, comfy feeling Blauvelt got when he realized he was reeling in a pit bull.
