Ten second rule?

Published by at 7:55 am under Good reading

From this morning’s roundup:

MORRIS, Ill. (AP) - Got milk?Police say a trailer loaded with 14 tons of double-stuffed Oreos has overturned, spilling the cookies still in their plastic sleeves into the median and roadway. Illinois State Police Sgt. Brian Mahoney says the truck’s driver was traveling from Chicago to Morris on Interstate 80 around 4 a.m. Monday when he fell asleep at the wheel and slammed into the median.“The boxes came out of the trailer and boxes were ripped open,” he said.The crash about 50 miles southwest of Chicago remains under investigation. Mahoney says no charges have been filed but both lanes of traffic remain closed while authorities remove the cookies.

Can you imagine? You screech to a stop behind a truck that has just jigsawed and spilled its contents on to the freeway. You strain to see what is now covering the ground - toxic chemicals? Animal parts? Tires? Feathers?

No baby, it’s your lucky morning - grab your coffee and start dipping!
