    It's weird how me and and you were talking about him and his car the day before.

    I hope him and his cousin a speed recovery.

    Should anyone need anything let me know man.
    Thanks man. They are both home as of today.

    We are all arguing semantics in typical DFWM fashion, speed is definitely the most common contributing factor in automobile accidents.
    And what made the heat shield fail? Heat? Where did the heat come from? Friction. Why was there friction? Speed of the vehicle entering the atmosphere.

    Semantics are very important, if you ask me. They are the differences in most things in life.

    Yeah, 7:15-7.

    They just close a few hours early, closed on Christmas day though.

    Talk about a wasted pay roll. I was scheduled 7-6 but left at 4:30 because sales were down so low.

    Doing 150mph on a road like that, and on Xmas eve is just plain stupid.

    When he recovers I hope he will see this as a very hard lesson

    Leave it to human nature to let us tear each other apart over another person's tragedy.

    I'm out

    Hope you get well Jon
