Nothing’s Shocking

So a 20 year old man was “found dead behind a Sacramento home Friday morning after apparently being electrocuted by downed power lines.” Pretty crazy, huh? Crazy that in this day and age people still would go near a downed power line? No, what’s really crazy about this story is the following wonderful example of Sacramentocana (I don’t use this non-word nearly enough) And I quote:

“It’s really kind of a shock to us. When we give folks directions they usually follow them and stay safe,” Sacramento Metro Fire Capt. Steve Turner said.

  1. Also, the local electrocution commissioner had this to say: “It’s shocking, it really is. You can feel the electricity in the air here on the corner of Watt and Ampere Dr. where a foolish man could find no other outlet for his emotions, so he took it out on a poor power line. Shocking I say, just shocking.”
