ripped from OUR headlines

okay so that's the third MN area story that's showing up on Law & Order. first there was the chick selling fake flu vaccines at my alma mater. then the hunter who shot those people. now next week there's a commuter train hitting a car. sure on L&O they're going to amplify the story with it killing 12 people, and it looks like the train on Law & Order has people falling down from the jolt and probably injured. Hey [livejournal.com profile] lokey weren't you on that train? Didn't you say it didn't even feel like anything? jeez, Minnesota is a hotbed of headlines. I love law and order, but I'm starting to feel a little exploited!

I had a friend on the train in Washington (state not city) when it hit a firetruck. He broke a leg, multiple ribs, punctured a lung and had a concussion. ( and the city won't pay even though he was on public transport, and hit a city vehicle.lame) But basically he had to crawl out of the wreckage. So a car amy not cause quite as much damage, but i think there could be plenty of falling down. And that's a pretty general plot line.
