Truck Carrying 58,000 lbs. of Explosives Detonates ...

It blew the hell up, 35 miles from my house. I heard the blast. One of my favorite roads to drive, too.

Here's the news link.

Stay tuned, folks.

Wow, that's gnarly. I've been through that stretch of road a few times myself. Crazy stuff.

Well, rest assured not all of us in Utah County are idiots. I'm here.

I heard about that one first-hand, NismoPick. Two of my brothers are volunteer firefighters/search-and-rescue down here, and they were a couple of the many that responded.

Bad luck for the U.C. ... no good.
