i should have asked this a LONG time ago. but howdo you pick only 1 to be a keeper? and i thought you had 3 keepers. but how hard is it for you to pick? its easy for me. anything with the slightest zig zag. its mine. my husband likes the snakes with the 2 joining saddles that make an "X". Albert is starting to get a lil more red on him now... hes growing up nicely. i think after it warms up again i'll take a momma/son photo for you he's already on LG fuzzies!! ok i'm blabbling enough. hope you had a nice new years!!! here at work it looks like alot of people were drinking and driving. tons of wrecked cars!!! talk to you later!!

Kin, do you happen to remember sometime in early 2006 a bunch of cars receiving damage from an 18 wheeler that dropped it's trans-axile on 295 East? Close to where you get on 64East? It was on a Friday night around 6:00-7:00PM. There must have been dozens of Tow-trucks dispatched that night. Cars had everything from punctured fuel & transmission tanks, flat tires, cut lines, etc. Our car was in that mess and was curious if you remember that incident. I'd say it was anywhere from eight to ten months ago.

Our car had a single, clean puncture in the transmission tank, so we had to be towed that night as well. It ended up being a 175.00 repair, but was paid in full by the trucking company whos truck had caused all the damage. With all the vehicles involved, it's amazing no one was hurt or killed. I'm sure our damage was minor compared to some of the others. A pretty wild Friday night for sure. You could see disabled cars lined up on the shoulder as far as the eye could see.
