Car plunges 20 feet in Somerville
By adamg - Wed, 01/30/2008 - 11:59am.
The Somerville News reports on a Bronco that went out of control and wound up 20 feet down in a pit near Broadway and Franklin Street last night.
WARNING: The story has the most disturbing photo montage you will see today; not because there's blood and guts or anything, but because the images look like they're going to come out of your monitor and drag you down into the pit.

hey, that's the site where
hey, that's the site where Tapatio burned down last year.
it was a good taqueria. I went once shortly before it got destroyed, and I was sad I couldn't go again.
(though Taco Loco is about 3 blocks down and is also really awesome.)
Kitchen sink
What a horrible slide show. I couldn't watch past the 2nd photo. What's with the desire to throw every available option into such a slid show? Wouldn't a nice dissolve have done the trick more effectively?
What? No nekkid college student butts?
If the somerville urinal is going multimedia, where's the frostbitten flesh?
Wrong newspaper
This is their competitor, the Somerville News.
Oh, Nevermind!
Somerville Nudes?
This is why comment yanking is good
If you couldn't understand why the Somerville Journal yanked comments from its site, take a gander at the comments on this article (I know it's from their competitor, but the philosophy here -- unmoderated posting -- is the same.)
First there's a continuing game where one poster is impersonated, then the commenters decide that the driver was a "drunk illegal" and one uses it to launch into a completely non-related rant about how you can't find an American "behind the counter" of any business in Sullivan Square.
Now that's some great discussion.
