More Rumors...

[The Watcher]

Anyone know about a deputy who smashed his personal vehicle into one of Ralph Johnson's Campaign signs early this morning. If they did, are they OK? I just caught wind of this.

Deputy Crash

I saw that this morning on my way to the office. Looks like whoever it was just didn't stop at the light and went straight on through.

Good thing it didn't happen back in the '70s. There used to be a solid wall of low billboards there. You could see the concrete footers being dug up when they widened Hwy. 98.

Anyway, I heard Channel 7 was going to have a story on tonight about the crash. I'm sure it will be posted on their website after it is broadcast. www.wjhg.com

OK, thanks. I am assuming the officer is OK... I'll wait for the broadcast and then I'm sure someone will have something ignorant to say about it in relation to the election...

Hope the driver is okay

I too hope the deputy is okay and nobody was hurt. But you know if the sign is readable this is definately gonna end up on one of those humerous websites.

candidates will do about anything to get some free press.

I didn't see a story on WJHG on the wreck. Someone had told me to "watch the news tonight." Given the context, I had thought that was going to be the story. Apparently, my information was wrong. Not the first time.

WRobert, I'd like to thank you for not erecting a campaign sign/billboard at 98/331. That is going against the grain, since every other candidate seems to have at least one posted at that location. Thanks! The absence of your signs being illegally posted is a joyful thing in my opinion, and it is noticed! Thanks for doing the right thing.

Yeah I heard something about it, heard the individual was arrested and after they performed the breath test then was unarrested and charged with wreckless driving. My question is how can someone be arrested for DUI and then after they blow under the legal limit then can be unarrested ? Just curious

 

[Smiling JOe]

I don't know about the breath test stuff, nor arrest, nor unarrest, but I do know that the guard rail which used to be between the signs and the road, is now mangled. Holy CoW! Who cares about one of the many illegal Sheriff's signs at that location getting creamed? That had to be some serious speed to remove western half of the heavy-duty guard rail.

The part that had everyone talking yesterday was the fact that it just happened to be RJ's sign that got creamed. I am glad that the driver is OK.

Back in the 1970's, my cousin ran the stop sign at 331/98 and went into the billboards. He was very seriously injured. He did recover from his injuries, except for his larnyx being punctured. But even with that, he wasn't supposed to be able to speak again...but he can. Voice permanently changed, but he is fortunate to have one!
