Its ok, Your Neo Samurai forgives, he knows that forgiveness is like setting a prisoner free, only to discover that the prisoner was you.

Hey, I dont have a scanner because I dont much care for the patriot act. So I dont have any info regarding this head on. I dont miss much on 299"the Mother Road", but didnt hear of this one. There are unfortunately tons of accidents on this highway involving all walks of life and their victims. They range from impatient commuters, semi truck drivers, teenies coming back from the river with a belly full of suds, or even some texting misshaps. One thing they allmost have in common is excessive speed. Any info on this accident from anyone and I'd be obliged. The Times Standard did not have anything online as of late.
