    i also visited a guy a very good friend whos up on manslaughter charges who out on bail..lost control of his car because of a bunch of bees that had a nest in his car and they stung him and he killed some-one..
    he was not drunk or on drugs

    its costing him a ton of money..

    @Ireland ... damn, that is aweful about your friend. Did you friend really need to hire that sort of expensive representation for something which no one can really believe was his fault? It's bad enough to have to deal with the guilt of causing someone's death even if its not your fault, but its foolish to put someone through the ringer without good reason. I can see some sort of inquiry to establish that it was indeed an accident, but making him feel like some sort of criminal? I have a good friend who accidentally killed a twelve year old boy who just ran out in front of him; it took him a long time to deal with it but at least the law treated him with understanding and respect.

    from what i under-stand my friend got his car stopped,was about to put the car in park the bees about a hundred or more hit him again and he then hit the gas and at that time he ran over a guy and killed him..
    they are putting him through the ringer,because the car was stopped..
    and was told you must have your car under control at all times no matter what

    It could also be the "ground Hog Day thread again". The "Deja Vu all over again" is original with Yogi Berra, New York Yankee Player and Manager. He had a lot of them. They are Berraisms. Correct me if I'm wrong gerry. I'm brain dead at present and can't think of any others. But this site has some great ones:

    LMAO! I never read those before; I love that stuff! While only marginally related, it reminds me of my mom. When I was a kid, we had an old gas stove and you had to strike a match to light the burner. I struct a match, lit the burner put the match out under the faucet running in the sink and threw the match out when my mother yelled, "Be careful; you're going to burn the house down" when I replied, "I put the match out under the water". She replied "Yeah, but it was hot water!" I remember looking at my dad who had this pleading "Just drop it" look in his eyes. (My mom usually wasn't such a flake LOL!)

    i guess if your a MOD you can say what ever you want here and its ok.
    or you can talk about drugs, alkohol and insult other country's as long as your a mod its ok and you can get away with it.

    Not many of us oldtimers are left, Ireland.

    Many came to this forum to read, learn, and have fun. Seems these days, nothing but hate exists here.

    IMHO, most left because of the hate and ridicule those members received. Same thing happened to other forums, and they died too.

    Sorry, wiki is not always correct. Berraisms can be used for the check of lower intestinal problems...ROTFLMAO!!

    Yogisims,is the correct term used of Yogi Berra quotes. He had a million of'em. He sure made me laugh!! {:eek:)
