Arketypical A2
“Police pursue boot camp fugitive in Ark.” Which seemed like a perfectly normal A2 headline to us; there’s nothing like a little light acoustic folk after a harrowing prison escape. But it turns out that “Ark” is actually Arkansas. Well, at least tell us he listened to some “All Things Considered” on the way down there.
I read that to mean that the police had recently acquired a new vehichle for the pursuit of fugitives. I mean, who wouldn’t want a very large wooden boat to chase criminals in?
