Cemetery intruder gets pinned under 1,000-pound headstone
It took five officers to remove the heavy headstone from Michael David Schreiber's body, and the family name at the top of the headstone left its mark on the suspect. "The letter V (in the family name) left an imprint on Schreiber's thigh," says a cop. (Munster Times)

His last name means "writer" (and "scribe," "clerk," etc.), but it seems he was the one who was "written" ON, this time. The tombstone left the impression of a V for Victory, perhaps?

We shouldn't joke. It's a grave matter.

his friend was sober enough to leave him to face all those charges and what it's going to cost him...nice

Getting caught really took a load off his back.
It was like a heavy burden was lifted from his shoulders.

I guess he took it for 'granite' someone would rescue him.

Do you all have to be so crypt-ic in your replies?

...and a crushing blow was dealt to those who disturb the cemetary...

He was trying to act like a "Rock" Star! Drunk, passed out and eventually, Stoned.

Hey, crazy things happen when you are RIPped.

Three hours in that night air? Bet he's coffin his head off.

If you've got the time, we've got the bier.

Tomb me, it seems it could have been much worse. He could have been killed. Of corpse, I'd never do something that stupid....I'm sure he'll be haunted by this incident for a long time.

No doubt this will cast a pall over his future.
Posted by: DT | May 8, 2007 9:33:26 AM
Maybe he was practicing for his role in the upcoming play "Dawn of the Dead" and took the term "break a leg" literally?

This story didn't have much plot.

DT, honey, you *must* stop now. If you keep going, you'll hurt yourself. Or maybe I'll hurt you. I'm not sure which one.

How does crap like this happen...who wants to get wasted at a cementary? (-_-)

Weeeelllll, once upon a time, a certain regular poster here (who shall remain anonymous) lived in an area with a huge, beautiful old cemetery where Duane Allman is buried. And back in the day, one could find any number of goody-type things that had been left as remembrance on his grave. So this certain regular poster, who was a college student at the time, and his/her (to maintain anonymity) friends would hang out, smoke/drink/smoke (ahem), and play frisbee football--I mean, do homework--in the nice, peaceful setting.

That is the funniest shit I've read all day. To bad there is not a picture to go along with it.
