BELOVED MEMBER OF COMMUNITY KILLED IN CAR CRASH
LUKE & LORELAI, YOU WILL BE MISSED
CAR CRASH TAKES LIVES OF PROMINENT MEMBERS IN COMM. LIFE
And all of these were on the same front page. Not much news in a small town, right?
You don't know me, and that's alright. I'm not a player in this tale. Truthfully, it isn't really my story to tell, but I'm here, right? And we've both got the time.

A/N: So, there it is. Please tell me what you think. I know, it's been done. (Actually, I don't know, but I'm assuming something like this has been done already). But I wanted to try it.
Look, at that the bottom of your computer screen. See that purple button? Don't press it. You really don't want to press that button. I'm telling you, DON'T press that button.
(Doesn't it look just so appealing now?)
