Traffic Accident in Naples

Well, not really. But you really should listen to this voice message. Here is an alternative link. The MP3 file is about 3MB. Supposedly, an operations manager for Jack in the Box was late for a meeting and called his boss to tell him he was running late. As he was leaving the voice mail message, he witnessed an accident and went on to provide play-by-play of the incident. Enjoy.

I can't access either one of those links for some reason. I guess I'll have to miss the action on this one. The gorilla story you posted earlier is just now making news here so I was ahead of the news curve on that breaking story. I enjoy that for some strange reason.

The alternate link (http://www.snopes.com/autos/audio/jackbox.mp3) should prompt you whether you want to open or save the file. That link is from the Urban Legends web site (http://www.snopes.com) which says they think it's authentic. If you have Windows Media Player (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/mp10/default.aspx) or Real Player (http://www.real.com/) installed, either one should play the file. Because it's so large, it takes a while to download. And I think because it's so popular, you may end up with "File not found" or "Error 404" or something occasionally if the server is heavily loaded. You of all people will enjoy the clip if you can figure out how to hear it!
