tell us the story !

I worked on a casing crew in the oil fields. Lots of life and death stories. Lots of men die there. Seen quite a bit in just 8 years of it.

I pulled into a convenience store in Panama City Fl., and when I opened my car door to get out a robber put a gun in my face and demanded my wallet. I don't know if I stared death in the face ,but I sure could see the bullet at the end of that barrel. He recieved a grand total of eleven dollars and a pretty nice eelskin wallet.

Yep, more than once or twice. Not telling the story, though.

a number of times

some health related
some job related
some just being in public

ive made peace w/ it
i just get sad to think of missing my kids whole life
but i cant live forever...

i do however have a living will
a health directive
and everyone knows to part me out and burn whats left
funerals are a gigantic waste of funds

why is it such a dangerous bussiness ericr64 ?

i bet you've got a few interesting stories to tell mindful !



why are funerals a waste of time then ?

Had a car accident, skidded on oil in middle of road and carriedwas across carriageway, and had a head on collision. Had to be cut out of car, was aware of what was happening as if i was watching it. Luckily no one died

i don't think i would fancy that

did they ever catch him ?



you know what chillinbama... i can't understand bank staff that challenged arm bank robbers for the money ..when its not their money ????

oh my god !...what went through your mind during those few seconds during the skid...and then all the time you stayed trapped in the car then????

New years day 87, we were snowed in at a
bunkhouse in Glencoe in the Scottish Highlands.
Later in the day we got the word, the road had
reopened. We jumped into the car and headed
for home.
Not long into the journey whilst crossing
Rannoch Moor, a notorious accident black spot,
the car skidded off the road.
It was totally dark as the car rolled over and
over for what seemed an age, eventually
coming to a rest on its roof.
The funny thing was, there was no fear, just
an acceptance of, this is it, goodbye cruel world.
The fear came when we realised, just one wrong
move and maybe the car would start rolling again.
We managed to climb out of the windows and in
the darkness, covered in mud and blood, scrambled
back up to the road.
A lucky escape i wouldnt want to repeat in a hurry.

oh no bodleing !... i need time to prepare before i can even seriously think about that one !



thats a nightmare on wheels ...in fact its not even on wheels ...its a possible sledge in the dark ...thats some serious first class shit !



oh my god

Before the crash fear of seeing what was happening and not being able to do anything,
I was wearing seat belt but was in passenger seat , i could hear the voices around me in between blacking out, telling me not to move, it took them i bit over an hour to get me out, iwas thinking about my children. Have to say the paramedics and fire men were fanastic. But i can remember every detail as if it happened yesterday

Worst of it was gilly, it wasnt my car, i'd
borrowed it off a friend

sorry i missed your one !

that sounds like serious as well ...the worse thing must be seeing whats going to happen to you ...when you got no control over it ...you just got to sit there and watch it happened in front of your very eyes !



what went through your mind when you saw the vechicle coming towards you when you skidded ?????

Yuppers.........is the reason I am divorced now! He had a loaded shotgun, pointed right at my head, told me I would be better off dead! Told me i was a fat, lazy c**t, I said then go ahead and shoot me....................picked up the phone and called 911.....................and that was the last time I ever spoke to him.....in divorce court the judge spoke to me for him and told him to not even look my way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LMAO

Yep on a plane some years ago.

everything seemed to happen in slow motion, and you are right it is knowing you can do nothing. I truely believed i was going to die, but i wasn't on the list that day!

are you shy ?
