MARIETTA, Ga. - A drunken driver ran off the road and sideswiped a telephone-pole support wire, decapitating his best friend, who was hanging out the passenger window, police say.
John Kemper Hutcherson, 21, then drove 12 miles back to his suburban Atlanta home early Sunday and went to sleep in his bloody clothes, leaving the headless body in the truck, police said.
A neighbor walking with his baby daughter Sunday discovered 23-year-old Francis Daniel Brohm's headless corpse in the parked truck and called authorities. The head was found in the bushes near the pole.
Hutcherson was charged with vehicular homicide, driving under the influence and other offenses. He was jailed Monday on $100,000 bail.
It was not immediately known whether he had hired a lawyer.
Police said Hutcherson and Brohm — best friends since high school — were drinking at a bar Saturday night and left after Brohm said he felt sick.
Brohm had been hanging his head out the window when Hutcherson swerved off the road. Police do not know how fast Hutcherson was driving when he hit the nearly vertical support wire. A broken sideview mirror was the only noticeable damage to the truck, authorities said.
Officers said Hutcherson appeared remorseful after they found him sleeping inside his home Sunday morning, covered in blood and visibly drunk.
Hutcherson was jailed in 2001 on a number of traffic charges, including driving under the influence. He pleaded guilty to underage possession, and the other charges were dismissed.

There's been some debate over here about how long an aluminum bottle will keep beer cold. Iron City claims it will keep it cold for an extra 50 minutes. I'll let the science geeks fight this one out in the comments... I'll buy it just because it's 'cool' looking!
Beer in aluminum bottles on the way
Your suds should stay colder for an extra 50 minutes
PITTSBURGH - How much would you pay for a bottle of beer that stays cold nearly an hour longer?
Pittsburgh Brewing Co., maker of Iron City Beer, is asking an additional $1 per case.
The brewery has partnered with Alcoa Inc., the world’s largest aluminum maker, to produce aluminum bottles that keep beer colder for as much as 50 minutes longer, Alcoa officials said.
About 20,000 cases of the new aluminum bottle beer are en route to as many as 28 states and should be on shelves this week, Alcoa and Pittsburgh Brewing said Tuesday.

A former professor of fine arts at the University of Colorado, Propst was at the time inventing things for a wide range of companies, developing a new way to produce concrete and better seats for pilots of supersonic aircraft. D.J. DuPree, founder of the Herman Miller company, asked Propst to try his hand at office furniture design, giving him and his team carte blanche to come up with whatever they thought might work.
I HATE THIS GUY!!!!!!!

LONDON(AFP) - "Bladerunner" by British director Ridley Scott is the best science fiction film ever made, according to a poll of 60 of the world's top scientists.
The 1982 movie came top in a Guardian newspaper poll of scientists including British evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins and Canadian-born psychologist Steven Pinker.
In the film, a retired cop, acted by Harrison Ford, hunts down renegade human replicants amid a dark futuristic vision of Los Angeles.
Stephen Minger, stem cell biologist at King's College, London, said "Bladerunner" was the best he had seen.
"It was so far ahead of its time and the whole premise of the story -- what is it to be human and who are we, where we come from? It's the age old questions," he said.
US director Stanley Kubrick's epic, "2001: A Space Odyssey", came a very close second in the vote, followed by the first two films of the Star Wars trilogy, "Star Wars" and "The Empire Strikes Back", directed by another American, George Lucas.
The other films in the top 10 were: "Alien", "Solaris" (the 1972 version), "Terminator", "Terminator 2: Judgement Day", "The Day the Earth Stood Still", "War of the Worlds", "The Matrix", "Close Encounters of the Third Kind".
The scientists also voted for their favourite sci-fi authors, and Russian-born writer Isaac Asimov topped the list for his "Foundation Trilogy" and the novel "I, Robot" which has just been made into a film starring Will Smith.
Englishman John Wyndham, author of "Day of the Triffids" and "Chocky", came second.
The scientists were polled by The Guardian as part of a science fiction special to be published Thursday in "Life", the newspaper's weekly science supplement.
