You don't get too many surprises these days

However, the level to which people will sink to avoid responsibility can provide a shock. The father of John Hancock (the St. Louis Cardinals pitcher who recently died in a car accident) is suing those who are truly responsible for John's death. That list includes the tow truck driver and the person whose car stalled.

Let's see, should the blame rest with the person who was drunk, speeding, not buckled, had marijuana in his car and was talking on a cell phone, or a tow truck driver who took an exorbitant amount of time to get a stalled car off the road.

(Oh yeah, an "exorbitant amount of time" is somewhere between seven and fifteen minutes.)

How pathetic.
