Remember Diane Schuler? That's her pictured above with her husband.
Funny we mentioned her today in a post when opining how Long Island may just be the most awful place in the western world.
In any event, she was drunk and stoned and drove the wrong way on the Taconic Parkway last summer, killing herself, her daughter, her nieces and some total strangers.
Well, the total strangers' families are suing her estate and some evidence seems to have been discovered that reveals Diane was in fact a big fat pothead.
Personally, I think everyone might have survived if she'd just been stoned. I believe it was the quart of vodka she drank with the doobie that turned her into a directionally challenged driver.
Her best friend and sister-in-law told police: "Diane smoked marijuana on a regular basis. She usually would smoke at night after the kids would go to bed."
I hate reporters. Are her best friend and sister-in-law one and the same person or two different people? I have no idea.
Police say the information they uncovered tends to support a new theory: that Diane was not a regular drinker and not an alcoholic, because she had trouble handling the 10 shots of vodka she downed during her deadly drive.
Say what? Don't most semi-normal people have trouble handling 10 shots of vodka in like five minutes?
The probe also showed that Diane was so disoriented, when her brother phoned her just before the crash, she kept calling him "Danny" instead of "Warren."

Figures you, from New Jersey, no less would find LI to be the worst place in the Western World. Ever hear of Locust Valley? Cold Spring Harbor? Huntington? The Hamptons? No, you stay stuck on the south shore which is more akin to your dunpy state right along with Staten Island. I have a saying and it is "Friends don't let friends live in New Jersey".
Sickitten (which I'm sure you are) you misread my post. I was pondering whether or not Long Island is the worst place. It's been getting a lot of bad press recently.
No fair calling NJ dunpy! We may be lots of things, but not dunpy! And what does Staten Island have to do with anything?
BTW, I have seen most of Long Island and some of it is very beautiful. I particularly like the North Shore area around Muttontown. You'd be surprised at some of the beautiful spots in NJ.
Any problem I have with it has to do with some of the inhabitants. And no fair comparing the whole state of NJ to just a middle finger sized portion of New York.
