Ron told me how a newcomer to town had taken a liking to one of the gals in town, which was a friend of his. In speaking to her one day, Ron had unknowingly offended this fellow, who then hunted him down in the middle of the night and beat him mercilessly--beginning with a forceful blow to the back of his head with a 2x4. That rendered Ron unconscious, but the beating continued. Both jaws were broken, all of his ribs, his spleen punctured. He'd been pronounced clinically dead four times during his hospital stay.
The National Safety Commission outlines the dangers of hydroplaning and warns, "Cruise control will want to keep your vehicle going at a constant speed and speed only adds to the problem. Cruise control is disabled when you step on the brakes but that is exactly what you don't want to do in a skidding situation unless your car is equipped with anti-lock brakes." To drive safely when it is raining, or the roads may be at all slick, refrain from using cruise control and drive at a reduced speed.
A couple of cars had slid into the ditch between the highway. Tow-trucks were already on the scene helping them out. But something worse had happened further on, beyond our seeing. One fire truck, then two. An ambulance and police cars. We were still inching along at about 5 miles an hour. Fernley was a long ways off.

Like Albert Einstein says, we use less than 10% of our brainpower. That other 90% that we rarely tap into will alert you to the veracity of anybody's words. You are your own master teacher.
One I recommend is Presumption: An Entertainment by Julia Barrett. It is a cute sequel to Pride and Prejudice. It is the story of what happens to Mr. Darcy's sister, Georgiana.
As I watched the Talladega race on Sunday, April 26th, 2009, I was torn between admiration for the exciting racing the track brings and the extreme danger it entails. Carl Edwards' regular car sponsor is AFLAC but for this race he was sponsored by Claritin. The number 99 started 16th and spent a little time in front before dropping to the back purposely to try to avoid what is known as 'The Big One', the wreck that always takes out multiple cars. He did a good job all day of avoiding all the accidents, though he did get a little damage from the first multi-traffic pile up. Towards the end of the race, the Claritin 99 car started making his way to the front. He got a great push from behind by the driver of the 09 car, rookie driver Brad Keselowski and together they passed every car in the field.
The car wheels spun as I tried to get out of the snow. I kept thinking the storm would pass. I got back out of the car and started down the road, thinking I would see someone who could help me out. The wind roared through the trees and I thought of A Three Day Blow, then the road of pines the girl and the man walked down in Up In Michigan. I trudged on thinking of the lone camper in Big Two Hearted River and how he saw no one for days and the utter loneliness of the landscape. There were no houses anymore, just snow and the forest and I turned back and returned to the car.
Are you flying high in your career? Everything is lining up right and you are hitting it out of the park every single day. You just can't ask for more as it just seems to be going so well for you.
