This happened to my old '92 Dodge Spirit during the October Storm in 2006... it looked very similar, only add snow and ice to the mix. I was lucky enough to be able to drive out from under it. Good thing because there was no way in h-e-double hockey sticks that I could life that massive tree branch.

it is hard to tell, but I don't think there is really any damage to it most of the part that broke is on the ground and you can see part of it is still attached to the tree, so I'm guessing it hit the ground then the top of the car. Kinda like how in wrestling on splash The knees land and the arms land on each side of the body and take all the impact but it looks like the person laying there takes it all. So I'm guessing there is some damage to maybe the roof but it isn't enough to get a new car, but I wonder how you get the car out, what would driving forward do.

Oh, that sucks. Glad it isn't our car. On second thought, maybe we would get a better car if that happend.

My baby nephew is 1!
Category: family
Finnegan, my bro's lil boy, is now 1. Seems like just yesterday that he was born. My brother and sis-in-law have 3 beautiful boys. I'm so happy (and at times jealous) of them. They are wonderful parents. The boys couldn't ask for more. And they also have a wonderful grandma who lives just down the road (well it's Vegas so this of course means like 20 mins away...). Anyways they posted this pic. Apparently lil Finn takes one from his uncle's tree.

Then this one too, just for cuteness's sake.

The well of death
This was my National Geographic pic of the day today:

And that led to this youtube vid:


Is this not the craziest thing ever? One car would be pretty insane. But 2 bikes and 2 trucks, with everyone hanging out the window mugging the cameras?!? Wow.

metalpeter - 06/07/09 09:24
Yes that is a bit insane. I'm guessing that once you get to the point of learning how to do it for the motorcycle it might not be to bad but for the cars that is crazy what happens if the motor stalls for just a second or change falls out of some guys hand and you run over it or something.
