Post Funny Weld story

Hehe I feel so dumb as I write this, but I think its funny as I look back on it...(doesn't it always)

When I still had my 86 notch, it had bad bearings and a bad T5, and almost ZERO oil pressure, but stupid me decided to drive it because my 94 was being worked on. I just put new Draglites on and felt SOOO COOOL. So, I'm going down the highway around 60 mph, and I feel the car start to shimmy and vibrate. I'm thinking OMG the motor is about to seize, so I start to pull over to the side of the road and BAM! the car falls the ground as the passenger side skinny literally flies off the car...and HITS A CONSTRUCTION WORKER IN THE BACK!!!!! I didn't know that had happened at the time, so as I'm cussing up a storm and getting out of the car to look at my destroyed rotor, here comes this worker holding his back and carrying my skinny. He hands it to me, and asks "Ma'am? is this your wheel that just smacked me in the back?" I stood in front of my passenger fender, and in best sweet ol innocent voice: "umm noooooo" LOL!! Luckily he wasn't mad, and since this was in December, they let me sleep in their truck as AAA took their usual 87238546787513 hours to get there!

At the time I was PISSED because the wheel was ruined and so was my rotor, but now as I reflect...it was funny as hell
