Default The last few weeks have been weird...
Six weeks ago (I posted about it that day) my friend was killed in a rollover accident.

Three weeks ago someone that I knew of casually, but we knew quite a few of the same people, died when he was hit by a tractor trailer.

This morning my next door neighbor that I've met and seen a couple of times (we weren't close) died.

They ranged in age from 28 (my friend) to 37 (my neighbor).

Do NOT go out of the house. If you do so, there will be bad repercussions, like your ball sac falling off.

I'm starting to feel that way. The crazy thing is they all happened while I was at work on my Wednesday shift. I think I need to call in and stay at home on my next Wednesday.

Not sure yet. The Captain on the next shift heard it on the radio right before he got in to work this morning and said it didn't sound promising. My wife called to find out what was going on because there was an engine, med unit, and multiple LE cars there when she was headed to work. When I got home three LE and the coroner were still there.
