Waiting for the bus

Freakin' hell, we can't even be safe waiting for a bus in Las Vegas.

LAS VEGAS (AP) - Authorities say one person was killed and another was hospitalized after they were hit by an SUV that crashed through the bus stop where they were waiting for a bus in southeast Las Vegas.

Television traffic helicopter views showed Las Vegas police questioning the driver, who appeared not to have been seriously hurt in the crash a little after 5:30 a.m. Monday on Boulder Highway near Flamingo Road.

The road remained closed through rush hour while police conducted their investigation.

Fie diddlie dee.

Meh.

To gild refined gold, to paint the lily,
To throw a perfume on the violet,
To smooth the ice, or add another hue
Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light
To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish,
Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.
-Shakespeare, from King John

Now playing : "My Secret Garden" by Depeche Mode. Le sigh.

Sigh. Atrophy.
