Sadly and inappropriately I searched for a funny headline in my head for this story.

Your headline was far superior than anything that I could muster.

A sad story, and I'm going straight to hell for laughing.

When I first heard about the crash, I wondered if it was on Highway 50.

Oops, now I get it. I never watch Brokaw so I didn't realize he was on NBC.

On a related note.

Is anyone else finding the Hanes mancrotch ads all over the page a bit... unnerving?

Hell, I don't get headlines all the time. I'm just very rarely ready to admit it.

FTFA: An unidentified Hispanic woman in her 30s was flung from the SUV and landed on the train tracks underneath the Willis Avenue Bridge.

Flung from her vehicle AND she landed on train tracks? I'm thinking the FSM really wanted that woman dead.

Very, very nice headline subby.

See? Seat belts save lives. That woman wasn't buckled in. Darwin wins again!

If Comcast has their way, they will kill everything on the planet.

Murrow tried. Good night and good luck.
Huntley tried. Good night David.
Brinkley tried. Good night Chet.
Chancellor tried. Was promised bail.
Baxter tried. Good night and good news!
Cronkite tried. And that's the way it is.

Nonsense. They want to round us all up to toil in their underground sugar caves.

I wonder how bad it would've been if they just would've hit the spool of cable.

Soo Brokaw was only up on the median avoiding all damage because he's good at avoiding accidents?

Wheres the reporting to show that someone wasn't wearing their seatbelt and could have avoided death if she had worn her seatbelt? The only reason why there was a fatality was because of the lack of a seatbelt.

I was on the Bruckner about 15 minutes before this, fortunately I didn't take a 15 min pit stop and drop the Cosby kids off at the pool otherwise I could have become a zombie and joined zombie Brokaw in the undead afterlife. That is all.

THIS Is why you wear your farking seatbelt!

The only thing that can kill Brokaw is getting him to say his name backwards.

We was camping and having a great time, watching Brokaw on Today,
Till a .... *sob*

Sorry, can't continue.

Exactly. I've hauled reels from 2 feet to 8 feet in diameter and I've seen them up to 12 feet. It also depends on what's on the reel. It can be copper cable, steel strand, PVC conduit, fiber optic cable, or several other materials. I think the worst one I hauled personally was an 8-footer of copper telephone cable that weighed around 30,0000 pounds.

Hi,

If this deal goes through, independent thought has officially lost to syndication. You choose.

Cereally.

Gee, consolidation of media makes sense in these times of trouble...

NO IT DOESN'T.

Thank you for your time.
