An infant water rescue?
An infant who was rescued from the water.. perhaps.
I think Dean should apologize to Sharpton. I don't know what for precisely, he just should.
I can't believe so many bank robberies happen like every single day. I guess it's pretty easy money: don't they instruct tellers nowadays to just hand over the dough?
