    Default Thoughts and Prayers for Guru!

    Hey Crowd family I wanted to let you all know that Guru was involved in a pretty serious auto accident. The facts as I know them are that he was struck by a pickup truck running a Stop sign.

    2. seeing the pavement come right up to my windshield during the roll.
    3. hearing my youngest in the back seat say "I think my arm is broken"

    Needless to say, the third one scared me more than the first two.

    He turned out to be fine though. Just a minor bruise.

    Of all the injuries to occur after this accident I get this one.
    I'd like us all to get behind our Chiefs brother here!

    Thoughts and prayers for you and your little Guru!

    Here are pics of the aftermath...

    I thought that using cellphones while driving WAS illegal here but people still do it. I've known alot of people who died while using a cell phone and driving. Guru, you were very lucky to come out of it with just a scarred eyeball for life.

    You know, as much as we like to make fun of it, you have a good thing going up there.

    Yes, you are a sicko. Whats funny is that you would never know I had an eye problem by looking at it. The first few days it was red as hell. It looks good now but still causes me some minor pain every now and then. Hopefully that will fade sooner rather than later. I have my eye doctor on call.

    You found a way to make it sound really bad and really good at the same time.

    We have that law in California too, it really doesn't stop too many people though.

    I can't believe people text while driving. That is worse than talking on the damn phone while driving.

    You would not believe some of the things I have seen people do while driving in California. I recently saw a guy literally reading a newspaper while tooling along at 55 miles per hour the other day!

    I once saw a guy getting a BJ driving down the Nimitz at 60MPH in Oakland.
