This damage is considered "totalled"????Man. Dillon is not having a good track record with vehicles. Murray makes a helluva bike, I hear. ahahahahaha

I am not in the driving stage with my kiddos yet - AMEN!!!

I hope he's all right, aside from the verbal lashing I assume he received. I think he should just stay home next year. I certainly wouldn't venture out of the house if I were him.

And, hey, Happy Birthday!

Poor D, poor Volvo... I'd be willing to by him the pretty streamers for his bike!

Happy Birthday, Brandi!!! Wanna go to Fujimama's?? :)

I'll get him a basket... or a horn.

Happy Birthday!

Really. I'm supposed to be packing... We're headed home tomorrow.

But... The frame on Ole Bessy is bent. The end.

Any suggestions on an SUV?

How about an army tank? contact the National Guard.

Wow, that's too bad! I can't even IMAGINE what his insurance rates are/will be! We are facing a good 2200 a year when Kay starts driving - and that would be if she started NOW, so who knows what it will be in two years when she is 16!! Anyway, have a good trip (home meaning Indiana, I presume...?). Oh, and I think I read that the Ford Escape gets pretty good gas mileage, if you are into that (a big deal for us since Rob has a long commute). And of course, Hondas are usually a good purchase (we aren't partial at all since we own two Civics ;-)!).

Happy Belated Birthday!!! Hope you had a good day. Poor Dillon - I hope he was ok and sorry to hear about poor Old Bessy. Have a safe trip back home.

Ouch Dillon. And I thought Volvo prided itself on so few accidents. Looks like you may need a Hummer.
