eat fresh, everyday
*Humm... Humm... Doo-dot... Deee...* I was just humming away, delivering the papers yesterday when I walked into the airport and saw three Native ladies seated directly in front of the door chowing down on Subway. They looked vaguely familiar, but I wasn't sure why.
After I passed them and was filling the newspaper rack, I felt eyes burning into my back. I turned around, made awkward eye contact with all three of them, while they paused chewing, and then I looked down at the paper. I looked back at them. Back at the paper. Back at them. And back at the paper.
They were on the front page! They were the two sisters and mother of the lady who MURDERED her boyfriend in Angoon or whatever little village! The newspaper explains that the woman had her trial in Sitka and that she would be sentenced to 45 years. Above the article was a picture of the murderer and the three female family members (in the background).
As soon as I finished filling the rack, one of them hurried over and bought a newspaper, sat down, and all three of them hunched over the paper, while continuing to eat their Subway.
-It almost seems like a commercial... "So, consumers, when you find out your daughter/sister has been charged with murder and is going to be in jail for the next 45 years, just grab a Subway sandwich... Eat fresh, everyday (despite the circumstances)..."
