Why they don't look before crossing just leaves me dumbfounded. It never makes the news. The only way that the outside world has any clue what happened is that there is a train stopped for a few hours while the case work is filled out.

Many of them are quite crazy. I work downtown in Houston, and have seen many levels of craziness and many levels of impairment by various substances.

OK, this is sad, but that's ^ actually very funny.
