Accident Victim Treated and Released

 

Local police and ambulance services responded to a car accident Thursday evening at the 290th Street bridge over Sherman Creek.

Rusty Tiller, 23, of Kennebec told officers that a drunken bridge railing had appeared out of nowhere, striking his car.

EMTs at the scene assessed Tiller with two broken femurs, a punctured lung, and possible concussion.

The driver was taken to the Onawa Health and Wellness Center. After an initial examination, Tiller was released with a pamphlet on mindfulness meditation and a sample bottle of Tea Tree oil.

Update, 10:00 p.m.:  The ambulance drivers intended to transport the victim to the Burgess Health Center.  Due to a Google Maps error, he was taken to the Willbury Health and Wellness Center, a new-age facility recently opened in Onawa. A GoFundMe account for the Tiller family is under development.

Free Hats Offered to Encourage Vaccinations

 

Monona County Public Health is offering free hats to encourage residents to get their COVID-19 vaccination shots.

Shots (and hats) will be available on Wednesday at the Onawa Convention Center and on Thursday at the Moorhead Post Office.

The hats have been donated by the local chapter of the American Genealogical  Association and Father B. DuBeos, chapter president.

Correction:  An earlier version of this story identified the American Gynecological Association as the donor of the hats. We regret the error.

SUX-PI Welcomes Former President Trump to the World of Blogging!

 

Ex-President Donald J. Trump has announced his newest social media adventure.  After being banned from Facebook and Twitter, the former president has created his own blog to communicate with his dwindling base of supporters.

We of the Sioux City Pre-Intelligencer not only welcome the defeated president, we feel the strongest kinship with his newly-created blog.

Since 2012, we have worked sporadically to produce mediocre satire, painfully obvious humor, and uninformed, but hurtful, fiction.

We know the late president shares a taste for the same.

Also, the Sioux City Pre-Intelligencer has persevered in spite of dreadfully inept staff.  On our roster you'll find the morbidly incompetent, narcissistic  psychopaths, chronic absentees, crooked lawyers, compulsive  liars, and habitual blasphemers.  In addition, our former Assistant Editor in Chief is facing a raft of felony charges.

Again we find a striking number of parallels when we look at the composition of the erstwhile Trump administration.

We wish the past president best of luck with his new blog! Welcome to the team!

Ted Thesaurus, our unpaid intern, helped, assisted, and facilitated this article, column, and posting.  For this we are grateful, thankful, and beholden.
