Behold! A page from a neighborhood newspaper called The Bee, which is online here, reported on a fire that happened ON MY STREET it's true, on July 1, over a month ago. The report in the print version is reproduced above, & my wife told me she couldn't find an online version. She didn't look around enough, because the web version is here.
When it happened, I was a little hungover & chose to sleep through it all. I regret it now - but in my defense how could I have known it would be the most exciting thing to happen on my street in years? I mean, even with the fire engines & ambulances?
At this point, I'd like to focus on the fellow who wrote the article - David F. Ashton. There is surprising little about him online. There's a Twitter page - with no content - just this alluring photo:
Recently a moving pod thing has appeared in the driveway of the house - the garage is basically a mosaic of boards - the aluminum cans have been removed - maybe redeemed? - so it appears the renters must leave. It's a shame. They have a grumpy rottweiler I always wanted to befriend.
But more importantly - can I get David F. Ashton on my show? Does he search himself on search engines? Wouldn't that be excellent?
