HIX8 home safe & sound back in the Clear Lake area. I-10 was smooth sailing. Except for one severe interruption of getting rear ended at Shulenburg. I would say that it was an unpleasant experience except that the chicks in the car that slammed into us were hot. A pair of UofHouston students. Even the blonde cop who documented the incident was a cutie.

I guess if you have to be rear ended...

Ok, on a serious note: While no one was injured in our crash, the reason why traffic came to an abrupt standstill (where I subsequently got smashed) was for an SUV rollover that looked horrible. A chopper was called in to get them out of there.

 

man that sucks... how bad was the damage to your car?

Glad to hear everyone in your wreck was ok.

 

While the chicks who hit us got a face full of airbags, we had surprisingly little damage. The bumper did its job. We were in a Saturn, by the way. My 8 was garaged for the duration.

Ironically, I originally wanted to evacuate in the 8. Would have sucked even worse if it happened to my baby.

...or maybe a reason why it happened was because we were driving an "invisible" car. Hmm.

 

I am finally home after that whole terrible ordeal.

 

glad you made it home safe , sorry about your whole ordeal , was looking forward to meeting you . always next year !

 

Dude, that was horrible news. Your Egyptian dude must be playing the blues.

 

That was horrible news. Your Egyptian dude must be wailing the blues.

 

Took me 17 hours to make a normal 1 hour and 45 minute trip. Highway 59 was rediculous. My 8 would have ran out of gas had i taken it. All that idling would have been a gas guzzler.

 

I'm ok--I ended up riding the 'storm' out at the house. We lost power for about 2 days though, and I still don't have DSL at the house.
