Well the Canadian Winter conquered me and my little ol'car. Whilest I was returning to University to wriute my last two exmas of the year, I caught some ice or slush and lost control.

I was travelling at 100-110Km/h North on Regional HWy 11 here in Ontario. My tail started to swing out, I could not regain control, next thing I know I am upside down sliding backwards through snow.

There I was hanging upside down in the good solid steel frame contructed Buick. Still in my seat, by the seat belt the sterring wheel and me still holding the wheel. When I unbuckled, I felt like Will Smith in Men In Black as i landed.

I got out of the car by myself, and walked up the ditch to the people above. I had no visible signs of injury. I talk with the people that stopped to say I am alright, there was no one else there. One of the people was an Emerg. Room Doctor. He stayed until the police arrived. Abulance checked me out said i was in better shape than most people after something like that.

After having it towed, and file the paper work i waited and a rural OPP (Ontario Provincial Police) station just of the highway for the rents to pick me up and take me the rest of the way to University.

I am fine, though I was warned that I may feel extremely sore depressed and weka for the next week after a trauma like that. I may even get out of one of my exams.

But apparently I was too relaxed while it happened so i havent strained any muscles, and I am I guess better for it.

I will see about sketchign a small picture of what happened so show.

things happened so fast SC, i had very little if any time to react after i could not gain control. I think that because it was so fast, and i ended up upside just as quick that snow was blocking all the windows so I was blind to what was happening around me. I think that is what made me unaware of what was actually happening.

i also just found out my buddy was in an accdient on friday the 17th. on the 401 caught some ice on the left shoulder avoiding an accidnet in front of him, did a 360 into the side of a 18wheeler, cause him to do another 360 backinto the left side guardrail. The front end of his f150 is crushed the other side (passenger) is like 1 foot by 1 foot now. no cab intrusion, or anything so he was lucky. The abulance arrived on seen with the body bag ready and were amazed he walked out of it.
