Title: Why You Should Always Keep A Camera Handy
Post by: cjmonty on July 24, 2010, 11:52:11 am

You never know when these 8 common events will happen in sequence:

   1. You leave your car parked on a hill in Colorado, without engaging the emergency brake.
   2. A large Black Bear opens you car door, looking for food.
   3. The large Black Bear accidentally puts the car in neutral
   4. The car begins rolling 150 feet down the hill into a series of bushes
   5. The bushes and/or collision slams the door shut, trapping the large Black Bear.
   6. The large Black Bear trashes your car in a fury & poops on your seat, while honking the horn for 45 minutes.
   7. The cops have to come and open the door with a rope, to avoid possible mauling incidents.
   8. You wake up just in time to snap a photo before the cops release the large Black Bear.

Nice shot! - definitely a reason to always have a camera handy. Hope this wasn't your car.

Noticed what looks like an am/fm and perhaps tape/CD unit on the top dashboard.

I'll bet that bear removed those two units much faster than any install shop could !  

(forgive my humor if this was your car)

Not my car- someone in CO who left a peanut butter & jelly sandwich in their car overnight.

Yikes.  

Saw it on tactlesstech.com

Peanut butter & jelly? Has the bear no taste?

Hey.  I would break into a car for a peanut butter & jelly sandwich.

Which accounts for a lot of what's going on today.

Personally, I'd blame those lovin' it for the general decline in everything, including the design of the automobile. Bring back the garrotte.
