Random Rantings

Two observations/rants today..........

I stumbled across this article, I know many of you may have read it before it is not new, but is interesting. I am not sure how cell phones and their signals would scare bees away. Then again, maybe the bees know something we don't.

I was driving out of work today and saw an accident probably about 4-5 minutes after it occurred. There was quite a bit of glass on the road and one of the cars was up on the sidewalk about 10 feet, and was actually on the grass. The interesting thing about the crash was where it occurred and who was the first to respond.

The accident occurred at an intersection (a 3 of business on a scale of 1-10, with 10 being the busiest). So I am not sure how it even occurred (my guess is it involved a cell phone). The ironic thing was that the one car ended up on the curb right in front of the hospital and this is directly across the street from the police station. When I was driving by (was actually stopped at the light), there were no police or ambulance there yet. However, the first to respond was a fire truck, which actually had to go almost a mile. I am not sure how the fire truck got there first, but it did. There were also about 2-3 doctors/nurses in scrubs at the scene, but no ambulance or police. The whole scene was just kind of ironically funny.
