Things that make you go

Ron

They were laughing pretty hard on the radio today

Their insurance company isn’t going to like that calim.

Sure screwed up traffic

He sure hit it HARD

Here’s your sign….

yea i drove by this and shortly after my marcum fell on the interstate

that is not a little high. that is way to high.

looks like a bucket off a dragline to me….not a “drill bit”

Yep, I got an upclose look at this little accident as well They have all traffic blocked so nobody can drive over that bridge. From the looks of it, there is some serious structural damage.
It is kind of funny because that bridge gets hammered several times every year and it is usually some big steel odject. A few years ago there was a big boat that got wedged underneath there I think the paint is still there from that one. It looked like a big dragline bucket to me as well. When I went by, they had 2 HUGE cranes lifting it up to put on another flatbed.
Reminds me of an old C.W. McCall song
” The bridge was at the 12′ line, but them chickens were stacked to 13’9″”

Five more feet and he would have made it all the way through.

wow, thats gonna cost someone millions… glad it wasn’t me, but then I always checked my height when I was loading
