    It’s odd how one small event can influence another larger one– from the classic “Does the flap of a butterfly’s wings in Brazil set off a tornado in Texas?” to “Does Boog’s forgetting his lunch send the school bus careering through the countryside?”

    Have to agree with HectorPriam; the Pyes were an unwelcome wedge issue.

    Don’t start hectoring us.

    I’m just wondering if we find out that Slim & the GA Garage had the maintenance contract for the school bus brakes.

    My prediction - The kids on the right side of the bus will all get up and go to the left side so they can get a good look at the ravine. That’s an expected reaction for kids. The bus will then be out of balance and tip to the left and roll down into the ravine. Any bets?

    What I hope is school bus company does a break job inspection to see why bus went out of control. Must be steep hills there. Need better breaks.

    Kab, please give us a break! The word for the thing that stops the bus is “brake”!

    I’m going along with David…the kids will all go to the one side and look at the steep ravine. BUT…somehow, somewhere someone will show up and stop the bus from rolling down. Axe, saw your post a couple days back. The reason why I haven’t been posting lately, is this storyline doesn’t interest me too much so I don’t check it before I go to work, and before I go to bed I’ll check GA, which would be too late to put a posting up. Thanks for asking about me though.

    I think we should fill a bus full of spammers, and see what the net effects would be if it rolled over a cliff…

    Sounds great. No lawyers. Then, instead of suing the bus maintenance company, we can all just burn it down and lynch the owners. Maybe the driver , too.

    Lawyers are evil- until you need one to help protect your civil rights.
