How depressing. This is the headline on a story in the Michigan City News-Dispatch, a newspaper I worked at for eight years: "Former fugative gets jail time." We knew how to spell better than that when I was there, honest we did. And the story reveals that the man was discovered and hauled in after12 years on the run. I guess technically he was a"former" fugitive at the time of his sentencing, but that still seems redundant to me. Oh, well.

That ranks right up there with the Cubans celebrating in NYC who were ecstatic that Castro was stepping down.
One Cuban man proudly displayed a "FREDOM AT LAST" sign.
(Nah, he's still a slave to illiteracy)
Imagine that.
