Life is a bi!@#, that would have been almost a whole months truck payment on a new one. lol It sounds like you got on end of it ready for the long haul anyway.

Why was she jailed for an accident, I literally hate the way some cops block part of the road, when the car in front of them has enough sense to get out of the road.

Oh Yea I know all about ****** county, and their justice system. lol

I got a speeding ticket in sour lake once, and I had to see the judge and pay it before I could go.lol
My uncle spent 7 days in Kountze jail with no phone call and no charges filed. My grandad hired Tonahill after we found him, They turned him loose, but the sherriff from jasper hauled him up there for something that happened while he was in the kountze jail.
three more days and still no charges filed.
I also remember Hardin county getting in a big bind one time for locking a guy up that was on leave from the army (no phone call) the army listed him as awoll, but found him thirty days later.
We used to have crap games at deer camps around the area. The sherriff would always come and we gave him the money to play on, he always brought a couple of deputies to stand guard outside, so we wouldn't get busted, We could get away with murder in them days. lol
