The thing that came from the sewer

Last week, we told you how to survive a monster attack. Little did we know that such knowledge would come in hand to our readers so quickly. The residents of the city of Lewiston, Maine are facing just such a crisis right now.

After all, the man had died only a matter of hours earlier, his body was scarcely cold and I refused to show humanity. But still, I don’t care about Heath Ledger’s death. Why should I? His life had little effect on me.
