Yep ;

In 197......9 (?) I was driving my pristine $250 1964 Chevelle sedan home late at night when I fell asleep, the road curved left and I jumped the curb doing about 35MPH and slammed into a light standard .

It went between the right front wheel and the (very peppy) 250CID i6 engine, shearing off the accessories as it went and stopped when the pole embedded itself into the firewall .

As the way things go, I was of course less than 1 mile from my house and a warm bed / safety .

Good thing I believe in seat belts, it had lap only , I hit my chest on the base horn button and broke the steering wheel in half , I had a black bruise and couldn't take a deep breath for close to a year .

The stupid things we do as kids ~ I was always the driver so everyone else would get home O.K. .

DUH .
