I promise there's more to my life than news

From the last couple of posts it looks like all I do is read the news. While I do read news stories every weekday, I promise there are other things going on. With that said, here's another comment on a news story. : )

A story about a tornado hitting North Carolina included a quote I liked: "A man who answered the phone at a gas station on Highway 87 said the twister 'just took a swath right out of that trailer park, right down the middle of it.' " A man who answered the phone at a gas station? So this reporter wanted a quote and decided to call a local gas station. What I can't decide is if he didn't ask the man's name, or if he decided that "a man who answered the phone at a gas station" really sounded better than "Bubba Jones."

Here's the full article if you're interested.
