Tim --Thanks for posting the pics.

Jack--Thanks for your useless prattle. It is really tiresome.

I don't usually have the time to post on these boards so that when I do it is usually a concise message, just to inform people about events of interest. We live in a rather large rural area
up here in "Oh Canada" eh? and when stuff happens it takes a few hours for the info to get to the media. This was another magic hour, 4 am accident. The people involved were more than lucky this "beaver" type bus did not roll over. Check all 4 pics in the above post to really appreciate the scene where everybody waded to shore.

Suck it up, brake hard, HIT IT, and stay on the road!!!

You have to go with the statistics, it ends up much worse if you leave the road.

Ram the damned swamp donkey,

DO NOT SWERVE YOUR COACH.

happy coaching!

Bob, I appreciate your useless assessment of me
as much as you do my useless prattle...

I have a fascination for people who think their public assessment of everyone else has credence,
it usually is a manifestation of a person who derives pleasure from the belittlement of others.
Thanks for the insight into your character..!

You could ask the person holding the gun to your head
that forces you to read my efforts to relax,
but I doubt you pay much attention to yourself either.
:-)
BTW ...Tim posted no photos, that was a LINK
I thought you might appreciate knowing the difference...
