Man Suffers Seizure While Driving

BSR says...

What do you do if someone has a seizure?

First Aid

Call 911.
Keep other people out of the way.
Clear hard or sharp objects away from the person.
Don't try to hold them down or stop the movements.
Place them on their side, to help keep their airway clear.
Look at your watch at the start of the seizure, to time its length.
Don't put anything in their mouth.

And don't laugh.

Tower distructtion

I love that the tower went down in a free fall at the end.

I was gonna make some 911 truther joke here about explosives but the election's tomorrow and I don't have it in me.

Brave Men Save Pelican Tangled In Fishing Line

I love 84!

I had some friends into exotic cars and we'd take 84 over to the coast now and again, mostly because we had a shit-ton of money and a shit-ton of spare time to kill -- the Dot-Com fucking rocked!

There's a bend in the road just outside La Honda on the coastal side that's a 15mph hairpin with a tree at the apex. It's a lovely goddamn thing, especially when you forget it's there. So here we all come, lane-trading and exercising general assholery in cars that cost what a nice single-family home does.

Oh FUCK, the turn!!

My friend in the 911 does this beautiful trail-brake and swings through the curve. Elise follows suit, complete with smoking tires. Next up is Countach. He BARELY holds it together, but gets through without any real drama.

Now it's my turn.

Did I mention I was driving a '97 Camaro Z-28? Yeah, Camaros of that year are good at exactly one thing: driving very fast in very straight lines. Corners? Yeah, not so much. I realize I'm in trouble and I'm coming into the turn WAY too fast. I grab the shifter and get ready. My plan is that I'm going to slam it into first, let the rev limiter do its thing to save the engine, pull the e-brake and swing the tail, then punch it and swing the ass-end around and launch out of the curve with smoking Z-rated tires and all!

And HERE WE GO -- grab the shifter, yank it all the way down and...

That's when California emissions standards fucked me.

You see, when you buy a Camaro Z-28 in California, you don't actually get first gear. You get what's called a California First, which is actually SECOND gear, because if you were actually able to use FIRST gear, the goddamn car would belch enough emissions to make a farting Brontosaurus blush. And second gear ain't exactly gonna work for my little plan.

tl;dr is that I hit the no-lock brakes hard enough to get my speed down and was able to bring the ass around with the little e-brake trick. I wasn't out of the woods because I over-corrected on the way out and spun. The same God that I spite and don't believe in actually saved my ass and I didn't end up going off the road. Apparently, he loves fools and Z-28 Camaros.

I honestly had more fun in that car than the law allows: sometimes literally, like when I got clocked at 110 coming onto the straight at King City. Good times, man, good times.

I love that stretch of coast.
As a teen I used to party at hidden beach a few miles North. The only access was a sketchy 6" wide path on the cliffside, so we knew cops wouldn't bother us there.
Should've taken 84 home, less time driving in the stink and you could've gotten great BBQ in La Honda. ;-)

Bob.
Call 911. You've had a stroke.

Democrats control the house. Republicans the Senate. (For now)
Besides that, you're actually correct about which house has which plan.

The House plan ( Republican control) is to have a paper trail The Senate plane ( Democrat controlled)has no secondary counting method... Who really wants to steal votes?

Verizon's throttles firefighters data during wildfire

Jinx says...

I prefer the version where they phone 911, ask for firefighters, and are told that although they have an unlimited fire protection plan they will need to pay to upgrade if they want the hoses and engine, otherwise they'll have to make do with a man and a bucket.

As I understand it, there was some misunderstanding about what "unlimited" means (hint: it means limited...), and that Verizon should not cap emergency services regardless.

newtboy said:

Fuck you Verizon.
This commercial is a huge fuck you to the firefighters they claim to serve and the citizens those firefighters do serve,, but firefighters have instead been totally ripped off and put in danger by Verizon. I hope their buildings catch fire and no one comes because the fire house only has Verizon so never gets the call....they deserve it.

Florida man said he mistook ex-girlfriend for intruder

lurgee says...

Is it me or is everything these days is labeled "breaking news"? It reminds me of the pager days when I would get a text ending in 911 when it was not an emergency.

How does racial bias lead to unnecessary calls to police?

Country Time | Legal-Ade

newtboy says...

Hilarious.
I hope they deny the water girl in SF.

A girl and her mom set up shop in front of a residential building they don't live at and all day screamed their water selling slogans at passersby. They were repeatedly asked to move by building security, and they refused. Eventually, a resident came out and asked them to move and called local police (not 911) to see if they needed a permit. She is being portrayed as another BBQ Becky (the woman who called police about people illegally charcoal grilling in a public park annoying park users) as if there's something wrong with calling police on people breaking the law.
She, not the water sellers, should have access to free legal advice.
It's disgusting to me that so many have jumped on the 'lets call them racists and viciously mob them if they're caught in public because they are white and they called police on black people....people who were actually breaking the law and being exceptionally rude and disruptive about it when asked to move to a legal area.' bandwagon.

So dumb...
