Back in the Bay Area. Traffic sucked and it didn't help that someone dropped a ladder in the middle of the freeway. Hitting one is one of my worst nightmares. Knock on wood that I'm not the next poor sucker on the side of the road after hitting one.

I hit a 90 lb. sack of concrete, once. It launched my truck into the air. Worst think I've hit was a very large deer: not fun. I clipped the back end of a cow once at about 60 mph, but only hard enough to scare the hell out of me and the cow.

That happens alot up there.

Hey Chris you were lucky. One of my parents were driving a Bug and swerved to avoid the same dog but ended up rolling the car over, back on the wheels again. The car was new so they replaced the roof.
