Thanks for the posted website link beeline. I think I have a more detailed link of the story but I can't find it but I will post it in a day or so and no I have NEVER been so drunk that I wanted to drive anything in front of a locomotive. I'll think I will keep the O'l John Deere in the yard and off the tracks but I live a good two miles from the tracks so I would probley get hit by a car before I would make it there anyway. With all the farmers that drink around here I'm shocked I have not read about a train and tractor accident. Anyway keep safe and check back for the link. - Knox [8D]

Thursday morning at Trinidad, CO an alcohol impaired gent had an up-close & personal meeting with Amtrak #3 and lived to tell about it. The guy has scratches and a sprained knee. Amtrak was just rolling to a stop at the depot.

Where do they all come from?
Mudchicken Nothing is worth taking the risk of losing a life over. Come home tonight in the same condition that you left home this morning in. Safety begins with ME.... cinscocom-west

I would collect pay checks on top of the refrigerator. The company I worked for would call me up and tell me by the check number, which checks I needed to cash, so they could balance out there books. But I fell in love and got married. Now I have two boy's who out grow clothes in less then a year, and a morgage bigger then a steam engine and I have not been to a bar in five years!!! I should have stayed drunk and stupid.
