10. Hey, I know where that is...

My employer sends me to one of our customers located about five blocks from the RR Xing on Main St. in the Fairport NY Business District. Although the town doesn't appear all that wealthy, the business district is one of those pretty little yuppified suburban downtowns, not yer typical biker bar neighborhood. I kinda vaguely remember a sports bar over there. The police department is maybe 200 yards from where the accident took place...

Too much alcohol will make anyone act stupid and reckless I guess.
