So when I said my love life was a train wreck, now I have a picture of what that looks like.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rail_Safet...ct_of_2008
The Rail Safety Improvement Act of 2008 is a United States federal law, enacted by Congress to improve railroad safety. Among its provisions, the most notable was the mandate requiring positive train control (PTC) technology to be installed on most of the US railroad network by 2015.
PTC would have made the difference in these two recent train accidents. When Donald Trump proclaims the infrastructure of the USA is in a sorry state, he is accurate.

^ He also says he doesn't remember the crash at all.
The engineer, ^ Thomas Clang Gallagher, told federal investigators he was going only 10 mph as he approached the station but has no memory of the crash, federal investigators said.
The statements from Gallagher came as investigators learned that an event data recorder that was supposed to record the New Jersey Transit train’s speed and braking information wasn’t functioning.
Investigators haven’t been able to extract a second datarecorder, located in the cab control car in the front of the train, because it is under a collapsed section of the station’s roof.
“It’s likely that it’s a newer event data recorder in the lead passenger car, the controlling car, so we’re hopeful that will have information that will be functioning,” Dinh-Zarr said at a Sunday news conference. “We’ll just hope that the front event data recorder was working.”

Cars, your spelling lately (last few years) has been atrocious, but you are now delving into Ramsey territory with this ^ latest post.
Should I congratulate you?

I fixed it for him. Now he at least sounds like a black person instead of a complete idiot.

I always read his posts with an Indian accent.
Makes it a lot more fun.
I read Maggot's like an old seaman with that think Maine accent.
Most of the time I can't understand anything he's saying.

I get your take on Maggot, that's how I imagine him too. Like someone out of a Stephen King Book. But Cars as a dot head? I don't get that at all. I always picture Cars like this...
