Joey,

Glad you made it out safely. You can get another car. What did you tell your date when you called from a hospital? I hope you didn't use the "I was so hot thinking about you I burned up my car." line.

Heal quick.

Glad you're ok. Sorry about your car.



Amazon.com 14.95

Two years ago I gave one of these for every car owned by family and close friends, after hearing a particularly horrific story from an EMT friend of mine. Mount it wisely. Getting into a glove box can be a strange thing when inverted - never mind how I know that.

I will not carry more than two until lines are replaced. I can't imagine kids trying to egress the rear seats in a panic.

Sorry to hear of the loss. Glad you're ok. Fortunately, there are loads of good 928's out there right now. Hope you stick with the sharks...

Terrible thing, glad to see your alright. Bummer on the insurance, but at least you can part the car out, some of it and recoup some of your investment. Best of Luck, Joey.
