Witnesses Claim Man Asked For Directions
Unconfirmed reports are currently coming in to the postdocme.net news bureau that a man was seen asking for directions last night near an intersection in downtown Olympia, Washington. If true, the development will be the first known case of its kind in the Western world.
The man, Frank B. Costas, 34, was on his way to meet friends to view "Star Wars: Episode II--Attack of the Clones." According to the witnesses (four teenagers each sipping a separate 128-ounce Dr Pepper outside a 7-Eleven), Costas, who was coming in from nearby Tacoma, had been driving around in circles for a good twelve hours.
Despite trying to present every appearance of knowing his route, onlookers report it became clear after only a few minutes that Costas had absolutely no idea where he was going.
"He looked like he would rather starve than ask for directions. Finally I guess he just caved in," commented one bystander.
For his part, Costas denies the allegations and asserts it is simply pure coincidence that a map fell out of his glove compartment and wide-open into his hands at the same time he was heard to blurt out the words "Which-way-to-Oak-Street" in succession.
