i always try to keep one eye open for crazy sh*t like that.

i've almost been killed more than once by some trucker trying to make time and running a red light, or not paying attention and crossing the center line.

luckily the trucks are usually going a lot more slow than that guy. unfortunate. that is the very reason many police departments are forbidding their officers to pursue runaway vehicles, collateral damage.

Probably the worst crash I've ever seen.

I only feel sorry for the people in the other car, their family and friends...

That is truly disturbing , placing yourself in that situation or even say maybe your own wife and kids , Truth be told if he would have lived and killed my wife and kids for say , He would not live much after that for sure , He would be assassinated for sure.


Bye the way Brian I ran into your dad the other day at Plumbers Equipment. I was picking up some Black Iron for a job at Penn State Tool & Die Corporation. We were talking a bit about Evo's Bye the way did you find what you dropped in the driveway ??

Yeah he told me he ran into you. I dropped the retainer/cotter pin off one of my underhood shifter bushings. I got the cheapo bushings 3 years ago and they keep seizing up. I remember they actually came with sandpaper to sand down the busings because they weren't the right size. A wrong size bushing on top of some salt and grime keeps seizing them up. So I just said f'it, I'm not greasing these things monthly anymore so I ordered the Buschur ones. I did find the retaining pin - It was laying on the lower control arm.

Yes...if it rains we'll just go to the lower level of the parking garage to stay dry...someone mentioned that. 40% chance of rain I saw we'll see what happens

There's too many people to reschedule I'd say....

Wow... the thought of hail scares the crap out of me .

However I promised my buddy I would give him a ride to Pittsburgh tomorrow so I'll be there anyways... hopefully the storm isn't too bad. Got an address for the Waterfront I can toss into my GPS?

Btw anyone coming down from around PSU, maybe wanna do a caravan over?
