[DMCForum] Re: What's up with Death?

["Josh Porter" <joshp1986@xxxxxxxxx>]

It's starting to look like that dosn't it. Thr first one was a buddy 
of mine was killed when he wraped his Ford Ranger around a tree, 
literally, after running over a big highway sign. The secound one was 
a close aquantence that was one of my cadets in my JROTC class, he 
comitted suicide with a shotgun. The last one happend Monday, a 
sophmore was walking home along the railroad tracks from fishing and 
beat the train across the crossing and obviously lost. All the police 
found of the latter was his fishing pole and the five gallon bucket, 
you can imagine a train gong 56mph coming in contact with a teenager, 
there's nothing left of the kid. This year looks very close to what I 
hear of 1980. something like 3/4 of one generation of my family died 
all in the same year.

Time for some good news!!! From what it looks like I will be going to 
state for SkillsUSA!!! That is a program for students in trade 
classes. Like my auto tech class, shop, or cosmitology. I placed 
fifth in my school out of 16. Not bad. Not as good as I had hoped 
but, not bad. It's funny, I've learned more about cars from the 
DeLorean sitting in my driveway then auto tech, or my VW. I need to 
explain my VW. 1966, terrible restoration on it, everytime I went 
somwhere I had to adjust the carborator. I was driving home from work 
and the gas pedal fell off. I had to drive with all fours. Braking 
with my left foot, pulling the accelerator cable thingy with my right 
hand and shifting with it, steering with my left hand. And no one 
would come help a guy out. Good thing my emergency mecahnic drove by. 
I say he was my emergency mechanic because the motor and tranny had 
to be rebuilt within three months of me buying the darn thing. It 
only had 7Kmiles on it. 

I talk too much :)
