Road cooked grilled cheese anyone?
This time around I am not going to focus on bad reporting.  If that is something you are interested in I encourage you to look at virtually any story written by anyone, big or small, about politics primarily in the United States.   Their level of bias and abuse of statistics to attempt to prove their point will quickly become evident.  I've stopped reading all stories from both sides of the fence for a little while now because all I need to know in order to determine their conclusion is 

* what network / publication wrote the article
* who is the main focus of the article

If you know these two things the conclusion is always the same:  "Our guys good!  Their guys bad!"

So let's focus on something a bit more light-hearted, funny, and in the end a bit tragic if you are a cheese lover.

An 18-wheeler "big rig" crashed a couple of days ago in California, fortunately hurting no one, including the driver.  The cause of the crash is either unknown or undisclosed but the truck flipped on its side and destroyed a guard rail in the process.   This situation is quite rare because of all the restrictions on truck drivers as well as safety on highways being generally pretty good in the USA but it does happen every now and then.

Although no one was harmed physically, the emotional toll on cheese lovers is one that might hit you right in the feels.   The cargo of this monstrous vehicle was nothing other than 14,000 pounds of cheese.   

This kind of made me wonder about when I am driving on a highway and there are trucks around me, I don't really have any idea what they are carrying.  I suppose it would be better for it to be carrying delicious cheese rather than some sort of industrial solvent.  

I'm like a child sometimes even though I am well beyond childhood age and one thing that I never got tired of was cheese sandwiches

<sub> Awwww yeah! </sub> </center> 

I did a little math and found out that if this cheese was sliced that you could have made 225,000 grilled cheese sandwiches out of this one crash.   Or if you want to be more sensible and horde it all for yourself that is just over  6 grilled cheese sandwiches every single day, for the next 100 years.   You might get tired of them pretty quickly though!

happy to hear these are not frequent accidents compared to what we see here in South Africa. Lately we have had a spate of tragic accidents involving trucks so much so that certain roads I refuse to travel now. With the open border policy we have more lucky dip drivers and they are causing these disasters. Speeding with no clue what they are doing is the concern as the number of deaths has spiraled out of control. The one stat showed a fatal accident every two days on the one road where trucks are fully loaded with coal. I have my heavy duty licence and it sends shivers down my spine when I see these clips as these guys have no right to be on the road with a bicycle let alone a truck.

They are the drivers that have come from other African countries who are as corrupt as here and have bought them without doing the tests. There must be close to 40% or more drivers on the road who have never passed a proper test and it is an experience driving here now. You can tell when we have power outages and the traffic lights don't work as it should be treated as a 4 way stop. This lot don't know what to do and will randomly just go out of turn. Seen some drivers go around a round about the wrong way and this is scary stuff. This is a lethal combination as when I hired drivers I used to test them myself. At the one warehouse the container trucks used to have to reverse around a corner to make it through the gate and very few could do this.
