Meanwhile, up here, a differently disturbed individual decided that the
best way to end his problems was to leap *from* a busy rush hour tollway
into the Hudson. His problems had nothing to do with gaining attention,
however. They were the dead driver in the seat next to him and his being
ON FIRE. Miraculously, he was safely rescued from the river and is in
the hospital in stable condition.
Their car had been "slammed by a tractor-trailer carrying pasta that
changed lanes." I don't even want to think about what spaghetti like
that would do to your intestine.
Something tells me there will be rolling roadblocks on the Tappan Zee
Bridge for the next few weeks, where the usual traffic speed is about
twice the speed limit.

The pasta spontaneously changed lanes, and the tractor trailer
continued on its course? Interesting.
And was it dried pasta, or cooked pasta? Because dried pasta could be
quite nasty acting as a giant spear. And cooked pasta would just clog
up all the drains as they tried to wash it all away.

enough of chocolate.) -- Faceless Man on ARK
