El Choo Choo Loco: Man attempts to ram USNS Mercy with train

[dennishoddy]

Well, hospital personnel in various places are being told to NOT wear their scrubs to work, but to change into scrubs at their place of work. Seems someone local was shot at in a gas station while getting gas. Shooter was another customer buying gas that went off on the worker "spreading the virus" and then fled the scene. Who knows, it might have been somewhere here on OSA where I saw it.

I've slept since then.

When the police investigated that, there was no crime. The local news interviewed all the video at the location, and didn't get any supportive evidence. It appears to be internet lore.

All I can say is it's the New York area, I am surprised there hasn't been a WHOLE LOT more of this already. Probably at least a few thousand sitting in their hovel with their tinfoil hats expanded to body suits right now.

If he was in NY trying to ram the Mercy, he really missed--the Mercy is in Los Angeles.

This made me think of the story from WW2 where a U.S. subnarine "sank" a train.

I looked on youtube and found the story. Just look for the History Guy, submarine that sank a train, it's a really cool story!

I've had a couple of people try that on us.

Believe me it works. One fellow said to me after looking behind him, "Damn, you're good!" We had a conversation after that.

Yeppers. That other comment threw me off. Mercy is in Los Angeles and Comfort is the one in New York City.

USS Barb was the submarine. Eugene "Lucky" Flucky was the commander of the sub at the time.

So the movie Speed 3 features a train this time? This is just getting ridiculous.
