"The crossing guards were down. The gentleman was able to make it through," explained Sgt. Nelson. "She tried to stop, realizing she probably couldn"™t make it and the dog dragged itself and her into the train."
Capitol Corridor train No. 535, bound for San Jose, was likely traveling at approximately 70 miles per hour when it struck and instantly killed both the woman and the dog, a pit bull. Amtrak operates the Capitol Corridor line, according to a company spokesperson.

I love Christmas lights. They remind me of the people who voted for Obama. They all hang together; half of them don't work, and the ones that do, aren't that bright.
For those who understand, no explanation is needed. For those who do
not understand, no explanation is possible.
A golf course is a willful and deliberate misuse of a perfectly good rifle range.
I just saw a video of the latest Darwin award winner, some guy who was on top of a stopped train in what appeared to be a middle eastern country (judging from the people around the train and dialect). He reached up to an electric line for balance and got fried with two jolts of electricity. Upon collapse on the rail car, blood and liquid oozed down the side of the train. His body was smoking and head burst into flames. Must say I felt bad for him though.

"The danger to America is not Barack Obama but a citizenry capable of entrusting a man like him with the Presidency........... Blaming the prince of the fools should not blind anyone to the vast confederacy of fools that made him their prince. The Republic can survive a Barack Obama, who is, after all, merely a fool. It is less likely to survive a multitude of fools such as those who made him their president."
