trucks don't just blow up for no reason

I will take the word of the Firemen on the scene who decided it was just a Diesel fire from an exploded gas tank and didn't bother to wear Haz Mat suits or call for the bomb squad.

When a truck with a full fuel tank is rear ended and the nose of the car goes under the bumper and into the fuel tank, all the fuel is atomized and becomes a huge bomb. Just like a Ford Pinto.

Besides, if someone wanted to hurt us they would have set the timer to go off on the Fed-Ex Plane, not on a cheapo truck.

Firemen are not stupid and not suicidal and not part of some big plot. If it had been anything but a fuel fire they would havbe been in their Haz Mat gear and they weren't

Apparently it was for swervie. He seems to think that a tractor-trailer rig has a fuel tank under the back of the trailer...

"We wanted to wait until you'd finished your funkle..."

Speak for yourself. Personally I consider it my duty to save Prentice from his addiction to shameless funkling whenever possible.

I did take pictures. I went to the butterfly field I found last October. Only one tattered monarch was there today, and a few red admirals and a couple of others.... nothing like last year. It was a pretty day to be outside anyway.
