The Globe reports Howie Carr smashed his car into a telphone pole in Wellesley yesterday afternoon. He's OK, but was cited for disregarding marked lanes. The telephone pole, however, did not survive.
Yeah, that's one angle. Alternatively, he could go the anti-regulation route -- NStar or National Grid, or whatever it's called these days is a private enterprise forced to put a pole there by overzealous regulators.
Surely, somebody here can imitate Howie Carr's writing style in crafting an op-ed-like column about Howie Carr's mishap with a wooden column (i.e., telephone pole)?
How does someone manage to do something like this sober? Seemed a little weird to me. I suppose his insurance will be paying for the damage to the pole...?

Oh god, what a terrible tragedy
That poor telephone pole.
Glad he is okay
Can't wait to see him work that telephone pole into his Howie Carr Mad Lib column generator to produce an anti-liberal, anti-socialist screed.
It's clear...
...that a concept so SOCIALIST as a PUBLIC utility would place itself in a place that might injure hard-working Americans like himself.
I guess he just disagreed with their liberal polling results.
Yeah, that's one angle.

But will he thank Ralph Nader?
One wonders if he will start railing against all the regulation of cars that likely saved him from injury.
Happy 50th Birthday to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety

By any chance, did Howie kill a woman in the accident?
