Cu later.

The body has not been identified but is described by police as a middle-aged black man...

Was that before or after they found him?

/Watt?

So from the article headline, are they not sure if he's dead or not?

tortilla burger: This is why Detroit has such a negative reputation

I am positive this is not the only reason.

Can we resist making more jokes about Detroit, please?

I'm not one to normally cheer someone's death... but sometimes I make exceptions.

I hope, but doubt, this was the douchebag who broke into my grandma's house to steal the pipes when she was in the hospital.

How the f--k the people who buy the metal haven't been held accountable, I don't know. Christ, I had to provide ID just to sell some sports equipment to Play It Again so if it was stolen they could trace it back to me. And that was just some skiing equipment someone in my neighborhood was throwing out.

Got a $30 check and less crap went to the landfill, so no, I'm not above throwing stuff in the trunk when I know it's worth something. Pulling down power lines and breaking into basements is slightly different, though.

PS

Nice headline, subby

roblarky: I'm guessing he saw the potential in the wires and simply couldn't resist.

/Yep, on a roll

Oh my, you definitely are.

alltandubh: Scroll down for the comments... some of them are pure comedy gold

I guess that's a silver lining.

roblarky: This is truly a sad story, I heard he was a really down to earth kind of guy.

If he was a kid, he would have been grounded...
