Subject: DML: Ever had one of those days?? (3RD TIME!!)
| Yup, it happened again. I got rear-ended on the freeway tonight (in my
| tow truck). I stopped to change a flat tire on a Ford Contour, and when
| I looked up while I was changing the tire (the flat was on the drivers'
| side front), I saw this bone head coming right at me in his Corolla!!
| So, I executed a not so graceful but very effective bail over the hood
| of the Contour (Those who've seen me go ahead and laugh, and those who
| haven't, I'm 270lbs people!!) and watched my truck shake violently and
| this person hobble to the shoulder. He tried to make his exit, but hit
| my truck instead. He tweaked my rim (again) buckled the body (again!!)
| but he had to get towed, he lost his radiator, ripped out the pass. side
| suspension, and peeled back his door. So, after that, I checked my
| pants, called my shop to bring a spare tire, changed it (10 bolts
| btw!!), and was on my way. I got pics of course, it's scary looking at
| the ones of my last wreck, and comparing them to what happened tonight.
| Very similar damage.
| Oh, I also saw Jay Leno go by in his Bugatti. I see him almost every
| day since the NBC studio is right off my beat.
