Thanks guys. I have no idea how the driver managed that. I keep thinking if she was going a little faster and had gotten there slightly sooner, that it may have been worse. I'm glad she didn't have any of her kids in the car.

Dodged a bullet for sure! Sorry about her dog.


I had a close one last month coming home where a truck coming at me slipped onto the shoulder (prob texting ). These are 'Oregon shoulders' on a 2 lane where there's maybe 12" of level gravel, then rolls over into the ditch. No way to park a car on the 'shoulder'.
The cab went off the pavement, the trailer followed, he corrected the cab back onto the pavement (heading right for me) and the trailer kept dragging further into the ditch for a little bit then got back onto pavement, where he then straightened it up back in his lane.
I felt blessed for sure!! Got sprayed with gravel that the mask protected but now have 3 'etchings' in the windshield - not chips or stars but I can feel the etching with my fingernail. Thankful to still be a breather!

It's scary to think how quickly your life can change. I was just reminded of that when I attended the funeral of a 17 year old on Saturday that was killed in a car accident. Glad nothing happened to you

Agreed! I've seen it way to often in my line of work and it is certainly a wake up call for all involved.

Just got around to reading the tab I opened from your link. The medical is so awesome! In addition to clothing and soon to be a med customer in 2 wks, I also use the Elixirs on my acoustics esp 12 string. Excellent tone, long lasting.

GORE® ACUSEAL Cardiovascular Patch which utilizes advanced fluoropolymer technology enabling it to "seal" around penetrating suture and decrease suture line bleeding.

GORE-TEX® Vascular Grafts.

ELIXIR® Strings Sometimes it's what's on the outside that matters.
Other manufacturers apply a coating before winding their strings, but that process allows contaminants to work their way between the windings, dampening vibration and shortening tone life. Only ELIXIR® Strings feature a patented ultra-thin fluoropolymer coating around the entire string. Which is why players report with ELIXIR® Strings their tone lasts longer than any other string, uncoated or coated.

Yup, not a good morning for me either, stepped on big pile of dog poo, had to deal with 3 aggressive dogs already(only been at work for an hour) and another one coming in at around 12. Blah, hope this afternoon is better.

Was about to grab a pic of a gorgeous yellow terminator but figured I shouldn't since there was two dudes in a homeland security SUV in front of the cobra
