I was late to work because...

[Christina]

I got this in an email today.

The story goes: A person was driving to work at highway speeds when he/she heard a very loud pop in the engine bay and pulled over. Thinking it was a flat tire, they pulled over. After popping the hood, it became immediately obvious what was wrong. A co-worker saw the owner of the vehicle on the side of the road and stopped to help out. The co-worker that stopped had a camera on hand and snapped the pictures below.(photograph evidence of why the owner of the vehicle was going to be late to work)

OH! I've seen that before!

I should try to find the picture of the moose and the Jetta. There were no winners.

How sad. I bet it was in there for the warmth of the engine. EEEK!!

Had they driven another 10 miles, it would have been cooked quite nicely and ready to serve...seems like a waste.

haha

I would have been trying to kill a dead snake for snapping one of my belts and screwing up my engine bay. Oh and refusing to get back in the car... just in case there was another:shock:

That's aweful! Poor snake...

And I don't mean to cause an issue or anything, but I thought I read a comment from you on a recent thread that had a posted image of road kill, and I hathered that you were opposed to such photography...? I find these images much worse, seeing as the snake is being burned alive,rather than what I asume is a quick death for small road kill...

Please don't get me wrong on this, I'm not trying to offend, just figuring out where you stand...

I didnt say I was opposed to the poster showing the image or the fact that roadkill was viewed as a photo op. in his eyes, But more or less, Asking what made him, as a person, choose to photograph the road kill.
To each his own, Even if i dont like it(which isnt what i said), Its not my buisness what he chooses to photograph. I was just curious as to WHY.

&& dont worry, Im not easily offended :greenpbl:

shame, was a nice looking snake. Think it was a ball python. I got one of those as a pet.
Makes you think how it ever ended up in there.
