Wordwhiz: Still Drunk and Lying on a Piano Somewhere
Bornfool here. My friend wordwhiz asked me to guest post for her while she while she toils away in the Caribbean. All I can say to that is obviously she hasn't been reading my blog lately. Here goes. I received this from a friend of mine and thought it was funny enough to pass on.
The National Transportation Safety Board recently divulged they had "covertly" funded a project with the U.S. automakers for the past 5 years, whereby the automakers were installing black-box voice recorders in 4-wheel drive pick-up trucks and SUV's in an effort to determine in fatal accidents, the circumstances in the last 15 seconds before the crash.
They were surprised to find that in 48 of the 50 states the recorded last words of drivers in 61.2 percent of fatal crashes were, "Oh Sh*t!"
Only Wisconsin and the Upper Peninsula of Michigan were different, where 89.3 percent of the final words were, "Hold my beer, I'm gonna try somethin'."
We miss you, WW.

You sure that the beer line wasn't also the most said one in SC? I could have sworn...

I'd be in the "Oh Sh*t!" group. I don't drink beer. I did discover a frozen drink in St. Thomas called the "Bushwacker" however that tastes like a mocha milk shake. Very dangerous!
Thanks for gueting for me Tom and Gene!! And thanks to those of you who visited while I was gone. I have lots of stories to tell when I'm a little more awake. I'll post a couple of photos to keep you guessing!
LOVE YA!

Tom, that last quotation is quite common in Arkansas, too.
