Car in Charles...
So i'm sitting at home taking a dump. TMI i know. But it goes along nicely with the rest of the story. So i'm sitting there reading time magazine and i hear sirens, well living in the city my whole like, that mine as well be birds chirping. I never pay attention. Well i'm sitting there and it's starting to distract me from my article, so i'm like wtf? That's a lot, maybe i should go check it out, and sure enough, more and more... then i hear the helos, i know something is up.
I get me sh\t together , literally, and get my gear, head out the door, try to see where the helo is. Over the charles... great, no parking even if there is something, i get halfway down JFK street and see firetrucks over the MIT bridge. I park at HBS and get out, run over, and see divers in the water, in the background i see a lady being taken into an ambulance with a blanket over her. I head down to the scene and here's what i got;

To make a long story short, i call the usual suspects when i get back, WHDH says they'll take em, i send them over 3 samples, he told me which ones he wanted first, i send them, we negotiate a price, and bammo off i go. Meanwhile i'm processing the other pics, i get an email back, he's going with another photographers pics, wtf.... i try to broker them around, and everyone else had them too. Unless i had ones of the lady being taken out, nobody wanted them. Shiezer! Shiezer i tell you! |

Because in today's society, no one is REALLY "handicapped", if I could even dare speak such a horrible word. Everyone wants to pretend like they weren't and were as capable as everyone else, which is quite natural I think. But it's not reality, and this is the result

Carfax will probably say slight flood damage.
That Saab looks like it got hit by a trolley. |
