Trio loved speedy cars

Nope; just a single Darwin. Two out of the three had already bred, though not to each other. Twice each. Neither of those two was married.

One of the commenters on the Camera’s pages said he was driving in that area earlier in the evening, and there was also ice, and he saw people sliding, too. Not just drinking & speeding, but bad conditions as well.

First rule: Do it alone.

First rule for idiots: If you need an audience, tell them where you'll be, don't take them with you.

First rule for survivors: No body is going to believe you anyway, unless there's a police report.

His movies would have been better if Fonda, Peter had been killed at the beginning of them.
