Wife Runs Over Husband Sleeping In Driveway
Man Says He'd Been Drinking Alcohol
POSTED: 8:44 am EDT August 24, 2006
ROGERS, Ark. -- An Arkansas man who fell asleep in his driveway woke up when his wife came home and turned into the driveway to park the car and ran over him.
Kristine Bolson told the Benton County Sheriff's Office that she drove into her driveway shortly after midnight Tuesday and heard a loud cracking sound. She said that when she got out of her vehicle, she heard moaning and found her husband, Richard Gonzalez, on the ground near her vehicle. Bolson said she did not initially see her husband in the driveway.
A sheriff's reports said Gonzales told them he had been drinking and he must have passed out. He was treated at a hospital for scratches and bruises.
"So, what was the cracking sound?"
I don't know why, but I'm thinking that alcohol may well have played a role here.
When you're parking in the driveway at night
And you're feelin that Wild Turkey's bite.
Don'tcha give Johnny Walker a ride
Cause Jack Black is right by his side...
"Officer, I was drunk. When I got home, the wife was gone. I was so drunk, I thought I'd play speed-bump in the driveway for a while. I did, but fell asleep. I guess, when the wife came home, she saw me playing speed-bump and joined in --- with the car."

"World According to Garp" flashback?
Train tracks are much more comfortable.
You can use a rail as a pillow.
When you've had a few and there's an evening chill and every time you walk toward the front door it moves to another corner of the yard, it's often tempting to lower yourself onto the ground. If it's warm, black bitumen there radiating all that heat it soaked up during the day, putting your head down for a little rest is the most natural thing in the world.
Not that I speak from personal experience, mind you.
hmmm

LOL you must read a lot
Did they check the car for damage?
When in that particular state, nothing beats the comfort of your bathroom floor and the toilet seat as a pillow. Ahhh the memories....
Only in Arkansas.
Maybe the cracking sound was the Geico Gecko checkin on the claim...
It's sort of wholesome and organic, in a polluted sense.
Like they say, there is drunk.
And then there is 'Arkansas drunk.'
If this drunk's a-crackin'
Don't bother...
Oh, crap.
Sounds like he'll have some good stories to share when and if he makes it to AA. (Hopefully for him it'll be soon.)
