Meanwhile,
Meanwhile, at the other end of the scale from the Torch:
A sleeping homeless man rolled into the Spokane River near Mission street bridge Saturday afternoon. The man was sleeping under the bridge when he rolled into the river. He was able to grab a branch and prevent himself from flowing down the river. A person in a nearby apartment complex witnessed the incident and called the fire dispatch. Two firefighters arrived at the scene and were able to pull him out of the water.
The "nearby apartment complex":
Hmm. Doesn't look like the sort of place where you live to gain maximum altitude and maximum prestige. Looks more like the sort of place where you live because you're lucky to have rent every month.
One of those somewhat more lucky people paid attention and cared about the somewhat less lucky homeless dude.
As I was saying, Point A to Point B. When you've reached Point B, you can still see Point A and you remember what it was like.
