“Three die in Dump truck accident” Hearing that was horrible enough – But Then, I found out I knew One of the victims – I didn’t know him personally But just talking to him a couple of tymes He had so much ahead of him – Just barely 18, just outta high school Getting ready for college in the fall… I just don’t know what else to say… From The Martinsburg Journal “Police are not sure about some details of the accident, but arrived to find a red jeep, identified only by a hubcap, crushed beneath the dump truck’s front wheels…” “…Part of the Jeep was covered by a white sheet and another sheet covered a body on the road.” Looking at the article again today…they have 2 pictures of the accident that really shouldn’t be in the paper, they have one with a white sheet in the road, and another with a white sheet covering part of another car involved… Have you ever heard that "No shirt, No shoes" rule? My question is...Why doesn't that rule include pants? |

That really sucks. I can't think of much else to say except that the situation sucks. One time, my mom was driving me to school and there was a big tractor trailer thing and a little truck slammed into it and it went right underneath it and the two highschool students who had been driving to school were killed and it was just really horrible. I don't think newspapers and news channels on television quite understand that there are some things you just don't publish. I hate a specific local news channel simply because after a friend of mine was murdered they showed a pair of rubber gloves that were recovered from the crime scene and they were covered in blood and I couldn't help but think that, ya know, obviously that was my friend's blood and it was just really, I don't know, emotionally scarring. I've never seen you on the streets of this town, I've never seen you just hanging around, But you still tell me that you know me... ~Justin Sane |
