My Dad was an engineer for the Colorado Dept of Highways. After they opened a new stretch of I-70 that had an extreme decline, he predicted several big-rig wrecks there.

He was right, all sorts of crashes until the word got out about the drop!

He said the worst was a watermelon truck turning over, because thousands of crushed watermelons turned the road into a skating rink.

When I lived in Milwaukee there was a truck spill of cranberry juice. It fell off an overpass onto another interstate below, so a major interchange was closed down for the better part of a day while it was cleaned up. Made getting around the city a real bitch.

When I was a newspaper reporter, I was once dispatched to the scene of a truck that overturned and spilled horse parts all over the road.

memories...

I wish I'd been there for the great Doritos spill.

The only thing I ever spilled on the road was 25 tons of dirt, doing 45mph on a city street the dump switch shorted out and opened the dump gates. Fortunatly there was nobody to close behind me that they couldent avoid hitting it.

People are strange.

WEIRD. Imagine if some of those happened at the same time...
Like Sunny D, chickens, rotten wieners, watermellon and Doritos? It would be like a giant, twisted and really smelly block party.
