Tragedy on the Highway...

I almost cried when I saw this picture. It is absolutely gut wrenching. It shows the importance of being properly strapped in.

A friend sent this photo of a horrible highway accident in Germany . The picture may be kind of hard to take for some of you. If you look closely you can seewhat appears to be survivors still in the wreckage. Although the picture is quite graphic, it makes you realize how quickly our loved ones can be taken from us.

My friend stayed on the scene to help and even though he performed mouth to mouth on quite a few of them, none apparently survived.

OH! THE HUMANITY!

I actually like Grolsch. I never met a beer I couldn't agree with.

I don't care what you say, the one in the lower front of the screen looks like a survivor. How could he just leave it out there all alone. Suppose it's still just lying there............................

Grolsch is great, and it's my wife's favorite. But then again, you haven't tasted a real one until you're sitting in an outdoor cafe in the spring in Amsterdam. Of course, if you're there, you're not only enjoying the Grolsch.

This is just another reminder how careful we should be when we drink our beer. Look at all those sad beer bottles that will never find their rightful bellies! This is truely a crime...
