How Do You Crash a Sushi??



The full headline read "Driver Charged in Sushi Crash". On our local tv station, a caption displayed during the same story read "Sushi driver charged with murder". I'd like to know how he drove the sushi and how do you crash a sushi? Is it a new form of transportation I've not yet heard of?

Incidentally, the driver drove his pickup full speed into a sushi restaurant, killing two and injuring six, for no apparent reason.

eek out

One friend of mine looked at the headline and didn't really spot the mistake. It is, of course, the word "eeks"; it should be "ekes". Eek!
