Sky I Grew Up Under Still As Intimidating as Ever
Sent to me by my parents-- a clipping from the Watertown Daily Times-- my parents' favorite-- the crime notes. This young man, my near-age-mate, apparently didn't escape Northern New York to a place with a friendlier sky like I did.
- City Man in Public Square Accused of 'Yelling at Sky'
Corey J. Wiley, 28, of 201 Sterling St., Apt. 8, was arrested Wednesday morning on Public Square, where Watertown police said he was "yelling at the sky."
He scuffled with an officer who attempted to quiet him down, police said, and he was charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.
He was released following arraignment in City Court and awaits prosecution.
One never tires of the fact that in our small community they publish the entire name with middle initial and exact, complete street address of everyone who gets arrested. It's a great way to keep up with the kids from back home... and far more inspiring than my college's class news column, which is full of news of advanced degrees, exotic research trips, new family members-- it usually brings out that old yell-at-sky urge.
