I sent it into the Chive...wonder if they are affiliated. Or my neighbor (who owns the Honda) may have sent it in. Guess my car is now more famous than I am.

If your a$$ feels funny, it's the horseshoe. Like others say, go buy lots of lottery tickets.

It happened last Saturday. I was in Charlottesville, VA for the night and came back on Sunday to the base of the tree bent over inches from the back of my Z. I assumed the city did a "controlled fall" of the tree and was a bit pissed. The base of the trunk being bent over seemed odd, but I thought that was more likely than me being so lucky. The next day my neighbor texted me a few pics explaining how lucky we were. Until I saw the pics, I had no idea it fell between the cars so close. I live in the building beyond the pic...no damage done. There are usually cars parked on the other side of the street...not sure if any were damaged.

Oh, and I am about to make a final payment on the Z next month...not sure if having it paid off would have been a good thing or made it worse had it been totaled. I'm guessing I wouldn't get enough from insurance to pay for a new one. It's an 09 and only has 35k miles on it.

Wow. Have trees begun to evolve to avoid cars? I hope so. :D

Though, it is like it's ******* with you. "I'm not touching you. I'm not touching you."

I keep thinking about what I'd have done if I saw the tree falling...

Jump in the car and try to move it? I'd probably have tried to push it toward the car behind me. :o
