    I'll bet he has extras in his garage and the car will be all fixed by morning. :D

    As soon as he buffs it out he's good to go. Was he wearing a red coat or a red BOWLING SHIRT?

    Sounds like something one of those 1st Gen shirt folks would do.

    UPDATE - UPDATE - UPDATE

    Local police are tracking a rather large internet order package of multiple bottles of Prima Swirl, Epic, and Black WOW, placed shortly after the incident.:D

    I had a red shirt on yesterday, but was driving a mostly salt encrusted blue MINI. That's my story & I'm sticking with it. :p

    I can see it now, controlled delivery, suspect gets busted and they pick up the Prima folks as accessories after the fact. :D

    Even worse.. I've seen that MINI before, but I think it was at the dealership before it was sold.

    Being this was in the Chicago area....

    And now for the rest of the story...


    A 23-year-old Naperville woman has been charged with leaving the scene of a property damage accident after she allegedly drove her car through the front doors of the Shoe Carnival store at 304 S. Route 59 in Naperville early Saturday, police said.

    Kathryn A. Miller, of 1000 Fairway Drive, turned herself in to police at 12:30 a.m. Sunday, authorities said. Police said she would be released from custody after posting bond.

    According to a police department release, Miller said she had fallen asleep at the wheel of her 2007 Mini Cooper when it crashed into the building about 2:22 a.m.

    Police did not indicate whether Miller was injured in the crash.

    Maybe she was sleep driving and really needed to get a new pair of perfect heels to go with her new Coach bag and cocktail dress?

    Or maybe Crashton called it.

    I'm guessing the 'turnign in' was 12:30P which sounds about long enough for the blood alcohol content to get to a near lawful level.

    Otherwise this Kathryn chick is so uber responsible she turns herself in BEFORE committing the crime!

    Ding ding ding! I think we have a winner here. :Thumbsup:

    I'm glad no one was injured other than her insurance company. Although I'm sure they will make that money back in good time.
