You're point on causes is well taken, not to mention the ones where someone swerves to avoid hitting a butterfly, with disastrous results. Yet these things happen, or nearly happen, on the roads every day.Denis Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12786035137418348609noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5722735165669239585.post-49729310891419191182011-06-14T14:06:32.338+10:002011-06-14T14:06:32.338+10:00Bloody hell, a close call.

I would probably have pulled over the the side of the road and waited until he'd got somewhere else (besides the afterlife). Makes one wonder how many accidents are caused by medical conditions. These days forensic archaeologists are discovering that much of history has medical conditions to thank for major incidents and shifts. I wouldn't send back a major medical incident to make a shift in contemporary Australian politics right now. Perhaps a bike accident or a potassium deficiency will do. The latter are quite common among endurance athletes.<br /><br />JoanJoanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04715081266571704126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5722735165669239585.post-88529244202350864472011-06-14T01:38:11.330+10:002011-06-14T01:38:11.330+10:00The last time I punched anyone with some intention...The last time I punched anyone with some intention of hurting them was when I was about 14, so you're pretty right!
