    Be warned. I am BORED.
    This could be dangerous.

    When you get cold just go stand in the corner.
    They are usually 90 degrees.

    A giraffe's coffee would be cold by the time it reached the bottom of his throat.
    Ever think about that? No? You only think about yourself??

    She must've been a basket-case by the time her ordeal came to an end. I know one thing for sure. I'd be getting rid of that car pronto! No way would I ever trust it again.

    Wow that must have been terrifying!! I agree if it were me I wouldnt touch that vehicle again either. How did this end? Did she have to wait until she ran out of gas?
    Finished is way better than perfect!

    She was talking to the highway patrol on her cell phone, they told her to push on the gas and the brake at the same time, and she did that and the car finally came to a stop. That was the story that NBC had on this morning, Sandy heard a slightly different version.

    Oh wow... thank goodness they figured that out. What a thing to do, push the gas and brake at the same time. Who'da thunk? Good thing she had the phone on her, I know who dosnt these days but sometimes I forget mine at home. Glad it turned out the way it did, thanks for letting me know that!

    Local news here reported that a highway patrolman was able to get beside her and get into the car where he turned the key off - evidently she didn't have the strength to do it or something. I check three local news sources all the time and they all have a different twist on things. Only those who were there know the real truth.
