Yeah, I'd say he was "distraught" alright. Can't believe he did that on purpose. I think I'm gonna throw up now.... Shouldn't the captain go down w the ship

The story on the right side of the page says: "a distraught man drove his car into the lake and had taken to the water aboard a small paddle boat.", this stupid ba$tard drove it into the lake and went in after it with a small boat? How drunk do you have to be? Luckily he didn't take anyone with him.
Nice color though! I have always like that red!

Would insurance cover that. I know if it was stolen it would but deliberately doing it or accidentally?

Wonder if Ted Kennedy had insurance cover the car at Chappaquiddick.
