Ladder @ MP 6.5 at 8:50, then near state line a minute later… that’s nearly half the speed of sound.

Deer wandering and wood chips? is this really worth a call to the 911 center? Incredable!

@ Liz re: “rabbits at large.” A few weeks ago, I heard a Scanner Traffic report that the rabbit invasion has moved a block south to Davis, east of 15th Street. It appears the rabbits may be headed toward that upscale neighborhood east of 15th & Best. HBO, of course, is closely watching this development. (OK, HBO isn’t watching that closely. But it’s hard not to chuckle when you hear the term “rabbits at large.”

It’s a bad day for ladders I guess. I also saw a guy pulled over on 1-90 and Spokane street exit at 7:30 this morning. He retrieving a ladder that had apparently fallen off his truck…strange

silly to threaten a butcher who is skilled in the arts of cutting flesh up

@ “A yellow ladder is lying across the fog line on the w/b lanes of I-90 @ M/P 6.5 (near H41).”

What’s a “fog line”?
moscow_minidoka on November 16 at 11:42 a.m.
It’s the white line on the side of the road, usually reflective. It’s so you don’t (ideally) drive off the road in fog.

Someone needs to put Tim’s Specialty Meats together with the rabbits at large.

Noon: 2 youths are “making out” in a red Jeep Cherokee, behind the Canfield Middle School sports complex………..another re-run of the movie Greese was on yesterday.. How long ago was this kind of thing seen as taboo? I think, Old enough to drive? then old enough to score with the ladies….:)

@couergenx: After reading your post, I’ve never been more glad that I don’t have daughters. Of course, now I’m worried about my son who drives that classic makeout-mobile: a Dodge Grand Caravan.

Cindy, tinted windows? :)

Cindy, lay down seats? :~)

My Camaro was good for that and I was parked on Sherman, back in the day. ;-)
Cindy_H on November 16 at 3:53 p.m.
@CB and hmo. Yes and yes. Oh Lord!
Liz on November 16 at 4:07 p.m.
@DFO so are the rabbits mutating as they are migrating????

Re: the youths making out in the jeep: tell me again how this is worth the waste of a call to the police???
