Was at a farm party many young-and-foolish years ago - we were runnin' low on beers. Several of us were offerin' to take a ski-doo into town to the beer store for resupply. At one point I offered to make the trip. But another buddy of ours got his way and headed out. We'd all been drinkin' pretty heavy at that point.
On his way back, he ran into the rear of a parked pickup truck on a dark sideroad. They estimated he was doin' around 80mph. He was airlifted from the scene by chopper and flown to Toronto for emergency surgery. He was busted up real bad.
Never walked again.
Always wondered how things would've been different had I made the trip instead.
