Carma...

Heh. Skidmark sends in this absolutely hilarious story:

Porsche stuck in wet cement: Proof karma exists?
On Thursday, the driver of a Porsche 911 decided he'd take a shortcut around some construction cones and drove straight into wet concrete near Marina Green on Marina Blvd. in San Francisco.

"It was coned off," according to Bobswire, a user of the Paceline bike forums. "He was just trying to sneak in from a side street. [The] concrete looked solid." Bobswire reports that the hapless driver remained stuck in his car. "He didn't want to open the door and have concrete get in; the whole undercarriage and brakes will need to [be] cleaned or replaced."
This needs a picture:

Heh. That's not even the best part. Go read the comments to the story. There's gems like:
  • This baby handles like it's glued to the road.
  • "sorry I am late for work, I was stuck in traffic"
  • $100,000 car and a $2 brain
  • Don't just fix the car, fix the driver.

Now, granted, this is California, so the driver will most likely wind up suing the town for failing to warn of construction in 78 different languages, but it's still funny to see. From the pictures shown, it's pretty concrete that there was construction going on in the area. I wonder what all that cement does to the 0-60 times of the 911?

Porsche: There is no substitute... for brains.

That is all.

...... and it looks like its brand new 2012 991. A quick trip to the car wash and everything will be OK ... or not.

And people wonder why those of us who have 2 functioning Brain Cells do our best to avoid people from San Francisco. Wonder how long he's worked for Nancy Pelosi?
