2 reasons to get up early

6: 40 or so this morning.



The other reason I was up so early:





The car that struck another car, hit a utility pole so hard it cracked the sidewalk, tore out 30 feet of chain-link fence, uprooted a foot-thick tree stump, punched a hole in a brick wall, and knocked a dresser in the house several feet drove away before I could even get outside.

You need some more power poles in front of your house!

well, at least you don't have to work so hard digging up the tree stump....:spingrin:

Same thing happened to me two years ago (drunk driver). The Escalade ended up in my living room. Built a reinforced brick wall in the front yard. I am sure it won't matter but better than nothing.,,,might slow the next Never buying a corner lot again.... I hope no one was injured during your incident.

Use 4" or 6" steel drill pipe,7 feet long. Bury 4 feet deep in concrete, fill pipe with concrete, place 3 feet apart.....tilt them about 60 degrees pointed toward the street, plant trees or bushes in front of them......:lol::lol::lol:

It works.......and the next time you hear some loud noise in your yard, just call the EMT's.......and go back to sleep
