It's still friday, so here I go.
A few days ago in Calgary a guy drove off the road and up onto the
sidewalk killing a woman and seriously injuring a child.  The guy
drove off and parked at his house a few blocks away.  It has been
established he was drunk, and driving without insurance or
registration.  Which suggests a prior DUI.  This probably happens all
the time, but when you look at this case his actions have destroyed
two families.  He is 38 years old, three young children and a house
in the suburbs.  If convicted, he will do time.  At the moment it's
about 4 years.  The publics tolerance for this type of behavior is
wearing thin.
