A car struck and killed a pedestrian near the intersection of Buhne and S this morning. The entire block between Buhne and Huntoon was blocked off by law enforcement vehicles and tarps. Children walking on their way to school were being redirected. An officer on the scene was unwilling to provide details at this point only noting that the accident was "pretty significant."

Suzie Owsley told KSLG's John Matthews this morning that the victim was not a student at nearby Zane Middle School, nor is it believed that he or she was in any way associated with the school. Owsley said parents delivering their children to Zane this morning must approach from the north, rather than the Buhne side. The area of the accident will be closed to traffic for several hours.

Crane favored rum, having once noted, "rum has a strange power over me, it makes me feel quite innocent -- or rather, guiltless".  In his honor, we feature the Mai Tai tonight during The Cocktail Hour (6pm). Believed to have been invented by Victor Bergeron (Trader Vic) at his bar Hinky Dink's in Oakland, the Mai Tai is a complex drink but a summertime classic.

Mai Tai

1 oz. light rum
1 oz. dark rum
0.5 oz. Grand Marnier
1 oz. lime juice
0.5 oz. orgeat (almond-flavored syrup)
0.5 oz. simple syrup
1 mint sprig
Fresh fruit for garnish (orange slice, pineapple chunk, etc.)
Umbrella (optional but strongly recommended) 

 Pour all ingredients (except mint, fruit and umbrella) into a cocktail shaker filled with ice.  Shake vigorously and strain into a chilled double Old-Fashioned glass filled with cracked ice.  Garnish with mint spring, fruit and umbrella.

"I am not ready for repentance;
Nor to match regrets. For the moth
Bends no more than the still
Imploring flame. And tremorous
In the white falling flakes
Kisses are,
The only worth all granting." -- Excerpted from "Legend" published in White Buildings (1926)
