Why is St. Louis not pronounced "Sant Lew-EEE" or at least "Saint Lew-EEE?"

When I was a child, I thought of Bob Hope, Johnny Carson, Palm Trees, the Beach Boys, The Rose Bowl game, The Showtime Lakers, and Three's Company when it came to California.

Now ? Looks like Bartertown. With the lawlessness to match.

RE: Random thoughts at 2 in the morning...
I was out cruising a few hours ago on a back road in a pretty rural area and after a big curve came up on a crew cab (think it was a chevy?) that was flipped upside down in a 5-6 ft deep ditch with windows busted out and everything in the cab slung all over the road around it. The cab was partially crushed.

It was dark and I couldn't see in the cab, so I jumped out fearing a gruesome scene. The truck was also making some muffled sounds that I thought was a person moving around at first. No one was inside through and no one in sight. No blood either.

Not sure what the whole story was, but it looked really horrific like someone might have been killed or crushed when I got out. Thankfully there was no sign of anyone and no sign of serious injury. I circled the area to make sure there was no one staggering around for help, but saw no one.

Hilarious story about Randy "Macho Man" Savage getting in a knife fight with the late night Waffle house cook and getting bit by a police dog on arse.

Ted Kennedy's dead, so couldn't have been him. And besides, you'd have found a dead blonde in the truck.

Likely a drunk that survived that. I saw them survive awful crashes when I was a volunteer rescue worker years ago. I think it is because they are loose from the booze and just flop around in the vehicle instead of being stiff bracing for impact. I remember a similar call in which we could not find anyone upon arrival at the scene. We found out later that the driver lived about a mile away and walked home to avoid the cops. He tried to claim that the vehicle was stolen.

He tried to claim that the vehicle was stolen.

We rolled up on a wreck one night that looked like a missile strike. The car was torn to shreds. I was still an Engineer at the time so as the crew was getting out to try an locate any patients I was trying to point the cab mounted spotlight on the scene. Came to a dead stop when the light settled on a dude sitting on a torn off tire & rim in the middle of the road eating handfulls of corn flakes out of the box. Car was literally ripped to dozens of pieces and he didn't have a scratch on him. Yes....sport was a tad bit drunk.


Had another one where we were called back to a wreck scene we had already been to and cleared. Arrived to find a second wreck on scene. The rollback wrecker was removing the previous wrecked vehicle from the scene when someone ran under the bed at a high rate of speed. Took us about 20 minutes to cut the guy out of the car and he doesn't have a scratch. We are doing full spinal precautions on him due to mechanism of injury and the whole time he's complaining about the wrecker pulling out in front of him. The Trooper, who was still on scene, finally says "You are aware the wrecker is sitting about 30 feet off the road in a field right?" As we are loading him in the ambulance he finally admits he had been drinking vodka. EMS crew gets to the ER and we hear them advise they'll be out of service for a lengthy decontamination. Seems once he got in the back of the ambo he got extremely sick. The medic told us later "He pretty much puked up everything he ever ate, including his 8th birthday cake." 03-lmfao

At 2 this morning I was only concerned with a satisfying scratch of my nuts.

Worked at an emergency room while in college. One night we get a radio call and we can hear a guy screaming in the background......"get that damn thing outta me, get that gd thing outta me".

Dude was flying down the road and came to a big curve, which he underestimated. Conservation of angular momentum took over and he left the curve airborne coming down on top of a cattle guard.

Here's the good part.

Ever looked at a bulldozer shovel? There's always a heavy strip of metal, basically a blade, bolted to shovel's cutting edge. The idea is to wear down this blade as opposed to the shovel itself.

The cattle guard had one of these used blades incorporated into its construction. The vehicle came down on top of cattle guard and the end of the blade, still with a huge bolt attached, pierced the bottom of his vehicle, entered this guy's body between his legs and exited his back somewhere around the kidney.

The tropper who showed on the scene first was a black woman and the ambulance personnel had to tend to her as well as the guy because she was so shook up by what she found. They finally lifted the guy out of the vehicle, blade still in place, extending a couple of feet off the gurney.

In surgery they backed it out the same way it went in.....bolt and all. The guy lost only a single testicle......not guts ruptured or lost. BTW, I checked out the blade in pathology afterwards and it weighed a ton.

Bet he slowed down after that.
