Mine is green, but after the initial hit of the thunderstorms that hit here this afternoon, it was in the neighbor's bushes.

Guess that's not a serious as the semi that blew over on its side on I-70 near Wamego.

Was the driver ok?

I was driving home from work today and had to chuckle. While i was driving I noticed a Blue Man with an open lid and a trash bag laying about in the middle of the alley 3-4 feet away as if the Blue Man had thrown up.

They do that..

They didn't really say on the news. They just said that I-70 was closed for a while because of it.

It appears the driver is fine.

The overturned truck even made the Wichita news. The damn thing completely went across the entire 2 lanes.
