Small Town News

Found this gem on my town's newspaper's website. I bolded my favorite part.

Suspicious person

An employee at Safeway Grocery Store at 235 Tennant Station Way reported a man in his 40s comes to the store every day and buys large amounts of soap. The man purchased two 24-packs of Dove white bar soap Monday, and the employee said the customer is not clean. The incident was reported 11:44 a.m. Monday.

Just a dirty boy, lot's of Dove but still no joy. He took the midnight train and smelled up the air."

Oh, my goodness...you gotta love the police blotter... and what poetry. You two were kinda doing a little "pun" there with the "joy" -as in Joy liquid soap...oh, well.

You guys must have missed the follow-up web comments from the person who wanted to know if possibly this dude is making meth from soap :)

Only in MH!!
