2020 Pending Review
Smoking' Rescue
So... a desperate French smoker tried to drive to Spain to buy cheap cigarettes there. But he was turned back at the Spanish border because Coronavirus. But that didn't stop our enterprising soul! Rather than just paying more for cancer sticks in France, he figured he'd WALK to Spain, across the Pyrenee Mountains... without a map! No surprise, our bumbling friend got lost, and had to be rescued after he ended up exhausted, shivering, cold and lost. For his valiant effort at an Honorable Mention, he was fined 135 Euros for violating Coronavirus lockdown.
Our friend only gets an Honorable Mention this time. But I won't be surprised if we read about him again some day!
