White trash defined

Who needs a dictionary when you have this visual?

White Trash La-Z-Boy

This, dear friends, is a motorized La-Z-Boy recliner.  Built from American-made ingenuity and a gas-powered lawnmower, complete with stereo, cup holders, a steering wheel, headlights and power antenna.

And yet, the story doesn’t end here.

Dennis LeRoy Anderson, 61, of Proctor, Minnesota, was the proud owner and creator of this fine piece of workmanship.  Estimated speeds reached 15-20 miles per hour.

Did I say “was”? 

I think I did.

Because Mr. Anderson, on a particularly wild bender that started in his living room, left a bar and drove his La-Z-Boy into a Dodge Intrepid innocently parked in the parking lot.

Police arrived, administered a field sobriety test, which Mr. Anderson failed, and carted Mr. Anderson’s backside to the slammer.

Mr. Anderson’s blood alcohol level was 0.29 percent.  Just to give you an idea, the legal limit in Utah is 0.08 percent.

Mr. Anderson was smashed.  And driving on a revoked license.

Bad day for La-Z-Boy cruising Mr. Anderson.  Bad bad day.

The La-Z-Boy has been impounded and is up for police auction.

Just in case you wanted to know.
