24-Hour News Cycle

Scott's cell phone rang at what is an ungodly hour for him, and after a brief conversation, he walked back in the kitchen and sighed.


Scott: "I never can understand why co-workers, who know that I'm at work at 5 a.m., call me late at night to ask me why I-20 is backed up."

Me: "Ugh! You don't work traffic 24 hours a day!"

Scott: (sheepishly) "You know what the worst part is?"

Me: "What?"


Scott: "I know why I-20 is backed up. A truck turned over, caught fire, and it caught the woods on fire."

Me: "Oh, that's a cool story."

Scott: "I know, right? I almost cut a report."
