My supervisor came by late yesterday to discuss a candidate we had interviewed earlier in the day and I ended up leaving work a half hour late. And today I am extremely grateful.
You see, 5 minutes before I got home 2 huge shelves full of all sorts of stuff (car ramps, golf bags, wood, carpet scraps, lawn chairs, etc) ripped loose from the wall and crash down right where my car would have been. The 2 shelves were 4x12 sheets of fiberboard, weighing about 40 lbs each. The damage to my new Murano would have been extensive.
I was shocked when I opened the garage door and it looked like a tornado had ripped through there. Cdubya said it had just happened and totally sounded like that, enough to freak the dogs out big time.
So, the lesson of the day is: always work late, you never know what you'll be saving from certain disaster.

That was a bit of good luck . . in a bad way!
I would have told Cdub that it was time to go buy some lottery tickets, today is your lucky day!
I never thought of that. Now I'm afraid to even put the shelves back up and park in the garage again. I'm going to have to use 14" screws on that mother f'er before I put my car back in there.
