Graduation Elation

2006 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

Hector Soto had just graduated from a trade school when he decided he wanted to trade his apartment for one occupied by a state prison employee. It seems Hector was extremely proud of his trade school diploma and took part in the great American graduation tradition of getting himself totally, completely, but not quit blind drunk.

One of Hector's friends at the graduation celebration drove Hector back to Hector's apartment complex. Obviously, Hector with his newly acquired diploma and accompanying smarts had scheduled a designated driver, but not a designated apartment spotter.

Hector, due to his anticipated increased earnings potential, had recently moved into this apartment complex where all the individual units are nearly identical. Hector being somewhat confused, drunkenly tried to insert his key in the wrong apartment door. Hector using his new diploma smarts decided the key and the door were not working. Miraculously finding the front sliding window open Hector entered the apartment.

Once in the apartment Hector did what highly inebriated graduates do - take a whiz. In the bathroom he encountered the state prison employee. The state prison employee, gun in hand, deciding the state of California prison system already had its burglar quotient ended all of Hector’s quests.

Neutral: For Darwin's Eyes
We have this story. In the event it is considered, perhaps Darwin would like a look at the write-up you submitted. IF it jibes with the KNOWN FACTS as per the various news articles we recieved, AND IF a previous submission of this story is accepted (ie one with a LINK attached), this write-up may prove useful...,

I agree with James. This is one of the better write-ups we've gotten. Thanks, Mike.
