Editor: It was about 2:30 a.m., in the wee hours of Boxing Day morning when some drunken idiot turned their black SUV onto our front lawn and crashed into our large Christmas lawn decoration.

Since we are so close to the corner and since that decoration was an inflatable Nascar type racing car with Santa driving and a snowman and a reindeer as a pit-crew, could it be that the idiot driver thought he was following another car at the corner, or that they simply thought it would be funny to run it over?

The noise caused my daughter to peek through the blinds just in time to see the headlights stop right next to our big inflatable carousel, about 12 feet away from our basement window.

The driver backed up onto the road again and continued their journey.

I鈥檓 just sorry we couldn鈥檛 spot their licence plate.

We went outside to see the damage and not only was the Nascar decoration run over but we have a lovely pair of tire tracks on the front lawn.  No point in wasting the time of the police as the vehicle is long gone.

Hopefully the hooligan hit a road-block, gets hit with a drunk driving charge and has to pay real big bucks.

The dumb jerk.  Thank you for letting me vent my anger.
