Comments on: Sometimes things go really wrong really quickly http://bowilliams.com/2008/09/sometimes-things-go-really-wrong-really-quickly/ Rarely senselessly vulgar; frequently slightly tacky Sat, 11 Feb 2012 01:08:13 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Lea http://bowilliams.com/2008/09/sometimes-things-go-really-wrong-really-quickly/comment-page-1/#comment-9351 Lea Wed, 03 Sep 2008 03:26:54 +0000 http://wmwmsblog.com/?p=777#comment-9351 Several years ago there was a bakery here that went out of business and sold all of their equipment. I was driving past when a pickup truck filled with commercial baker's racks pulled out in front of me. It was like I had an audible voice inside my head saying, "Boy, it sure would suck if that guy doesn't have those tied down the right way." I immediately started slowing down. I had just managed to get a decent gap between our vehicles when the first baker's rack hit the pavement. After I realized I had avoided being hit by a flying rack or hitting debris on the road, it was almost amusing to watch. It was like watching really big dominos topple. I know it lasted only seconds but it had that weird slo-mo quality to it, too. Anyway, this picture reminded me of that incident. Sometimes, a few feet can make a lot of difference on just how bad your day is going to be! Several years ago there was a bakery here that went out of business and sold all of their equipment.
