Having nothing to do with Mustangs - but here's a little story with a couple of FORD products in it (indicated in Blue).
A little setup: Today (4/18) is my son Matt's birthday. My sweet wife Sue (Mrs StDr) was "called in" to recover a patient after emergency surgery at about 4:30AM local. Sometime around 5:30-6:00; both Matt and I woke up and started our day. At 7:15 my wife came home from work and suggested a nice Sunday AM dinner at a local eatery for "just the 3 of us, let the other kids sleep!" Since my idea towards eating out is somewhat like that of our resident Hemming's writer (Chepsk8); the thought of paying to feed only half the crew appealed. Well, then Jessie woke up, then Trish (1/2NK); so it looked like the whole gang was going, until Justin (NoKitten) mumbled from his pillow that we should just go as the immediate family (as long as we all got out of the living room and let him go back to sleep
A Little More Setup: The vehicles involved were: A Toyota Tacoma P/U traveling South at a good clip; driver hoping to "make it through under the yellow" (she didn't, it was RED by then
The Part Where NoKitten Freaks Out: Justin (in Dammit the Bronco) comes driving up to the intersection; on his way to his storage unit. Sees the wreck (how can he NOT see it, it's all over the intersection), sees the mangled all-white Dodge, sees me now talking to a local PD, DOESN'T SEE Mrs StDr "checking out" the victims in the Mercury and DOESN'T SEE our Ram (with the kids in it) sitting in the bank parking lot. So now he's sitting there all googly eyed, thinking about 1/2 NK (and maybe even thinking about the rest of us) being in the wreck. I guess he finally calmed down when I answered my cellphone with "Hello, chill out, that's not our truck" At the time we left the scene, only one vic had gone to the ER; the lady in the Sable, who has diabetes and a heart history - the physical shock was messing with her vitals so Sue mentioned her "CCRN, ACLS" title to the EMT's and "suggested" they push for transport. The rest refused.
We're all at home now, and NK mentioned something about shampooing the front seat of the Bronco???
Still Dreamin'
