In the scary plane crash above...what's with all the parachutes? I see where the pilot is ejecting, but what's with the rest?

Also, what's the story?

I'd say "unintended acceleration" followed closely by divorce proceedings.

There was a thread about that Ford/Ferrari pic awhile back. Basically: Adolescent idiot races through neighbourhood, loses it, gets air on someones' lawn, flies through garage door and comes to rest on unsuspecting F-car.

Our Bon Jovi tribute artist, he is in town from Canada and we are getting promo pix ideas. This guy is a "P" magnet that is just crazy, I'll be his wingman any day as the chicks just are nuts for him He even had strippers coming up and giving us their phone #s, not that I'm going to take a stripper out.

Just had this banner ad pop up (from TheSamba, of all places!)

They say daughters grow up to look like their mothers - run Pradeep, run very fast!

I got that pic in an e-mail with the following text:

Subject: Read before looking at pic


"To my darling husband

Before you return from your overseas trip I just want to let you know about the small accident I had with the pick up truck when I turned into the driveway. Fortunately not to bad and I really didn't get hurt, so please don't worry too much about me.

I was coming home from Wal-Mart, and when I turned into the driveway I accidentally pushed down on the accelerator instead of the brake. The garage door is slightly bent but the pick up fortunately came to a halt when it bumped into your car.

I am really sorry but I know with your kind hearted personality you will forgive me. You know how much I love you & care for you my sweetheart.

I cannot wait to hold you in my arms again.

Your loving wife,

XXX"
