What a horrific accident. Sad to hear they all lose their lives. The roadways are extremely dangerous, even without recklessly changing lanes at high speed.

I member coming off the Autox last month and driving back home on 95 Southbound near the 476 exit and nearly rear-ending someone in the far left lane because someone decided to come to a complete stop with the rest of us going about 65MPH behind them. I cursed the driver in front of me a few times but then realized how carefree it was at the autox learning to push the limits of the car in an orderly and safe place. Out on the roads it's a nightmare, nothing is safe its your driving skills against the track of chaos.

This reminds me a couple of weekends ago I was driving on the AC expressway in NJ and some truck in front of me drops a 2 x 4 onto the road covering 1/2 of the right-hand side of my lane. I had about 10 seconds to figure what I was going to do, the lane to my left had a small car speeding up toward a left lane exit up ahead. The lane to my right had a lot of heavy traffic just like what was behind me which would mean I would have to hit someone either to my right or behind (with braking) to avoid hitting the 2 x 4. I decided to swerved quickly to my left and got really close to the small car taking the exit and then back into my lane as if I were avoiding a cone and on a slalom course. A Toyota Corolla behind me ate the 2 x 4 and had to pull over. I continued on but the traffic in my lane behind me started to pull over, they had to slow down and stop for the Corolla.

i googled it and there were several things to try to get it working. what worked for me was to hold the on/off button and home button simultaneously for 10 seconds and it restarted.

My 1st gen iPhone froze all the ****in time, I just got the 3gs and the performance has definetly improved. The processor also feels faster because apps load alot faster and don't stall at all. Which iPhone do u have bc maybe u just need an upgrade if u got one of the newer ones idk, take it to the "genius" bar lmao

Car feels great with the COP and new plugs on, but no tune yet. It rained Saturday, and KHC had their big yellow truck detailed for an upcoming show, so they didn't want to leave it outside. I'm trying to go up there this weekend.
