FDE is alive but the Scooby Van is dead

[stevieray]

(this is the wife)...

Stevo was in an accident this morning and it wasn't his fault. He was in the middle lane and some bigwig in a dealer Tahoe decided he was in a big hurry to get on the highway, shot across to the middle lane from the onramp and clipped Stevo's van's front right corner with the back left end of his vehicle. The van spun around, flipped onto it's left side and slid and then landed back onto it's wheels. Stevo was holding onto his custom steering wheel (that I bought as an anniversary present many years back) so hard that he ripped it loose. He's okay (bruised and very sore) but his 1965 Chevy Van is totaled. FDE is very sad but very thankful that he's gonna be okay. I know you all are his friends and I'm not sure why I wanted to start this topic, but I wanted you all to know...

[KC Kings]

but did it mess up his hair?

[BigRedChief]

Tell him that we are glad he's okay and expect him to ready by the 24th. I'll give him a ride if he needs one...

[Saulbadguy]

Glad to hear he is OK. Send my best wishes from his favorite pinko commie liberal, Saulbadguy.

[ptlyon]

Glad to hear Steve is ok!

Get better man!

[Sydd]

Dang... glad he is ok.

[shakesthecat]

NOOOooooo! :cuss:



Glad Stevie's OK though.

[Phobia]

How in the hell are we supposed to be expected to believe this after the fake motorcycle accident 2.5 years ago?

[seclark]

i'm also glad stevie's ok. it's a bad deal about the van though. i suppose rain man had it pegged in the death pool thread.
sec

[Rain Man]

I'm glad to hear that he's okay. That'd be a scary wreck.

I'll bet this wasn't an accident, either. I'll bet that the Scooby Van was sabotaged by some guy who wanted to take control of an amusement park and was pretending to be a ghost.

[Bob Dole]

Damn.

You sure he's not First Down Super Dave?

[Radar Chief]

Wow! Glad Stevo’s alright though.

[go bo]

glad stevie wasn't seriously hurt...

tell him get well quick!

(sorry 'bout the van - it was a classic...)

[Brock]

How in the hell are we supposed to be expected to believe this after the fake motorcycle accident 2.5 years ago?

Yeah.

[go bo]

Damn.

You sure he's not First Down Super Dave?ROFL ROFL ROFL

[Phobia]

After he recovers from his bruises, maybe you can start on a new costume for him.

It is my belief that Tackle Me Elmo would play well at Arrowhead.

[Demonpenz]

Elvis has NOT left the building

[Lzen]

Glad to hear Stevie's OK. Get well, bro.

[Scaga]

I'm glad to hear that he's okay. That'd be a scary wreck.

I'll bet this wasn't an accident, either. I'll bet that the Scooby Van was sabotaged by some guy who wanted to take control of an amusement park and was pretending to be a ghost.

Everything would have been fine if it weren't for those meddling kids.
:cuss:

Glad to hear he's OK

[Frankie]

Dang!... Coulda been one less vote for Bush. :hmmm: ...
Just kidding. ;) I'm glad he's OK.

[ChiefJustice]

Thank goodness that FDE is alive to fight another day!!

Does anyone else think that Jazzzlovr or Slayer might
have had something to do with this?

[Brock]

Dang!... Coulda been one less vote for Bush. :hmmm: ...
Just kidding. ;) I'm glad he's OK.

Good one, Osama. wink.

[Dartgod]

I'm glad to hear that he's okay. That'd be a scary wreck.

I'll bet this wasn't an accident, either. I'll bet that the Scooby Van was sabotaged by some guy who wanted to take control of an amusement park and was pretending to be a ghost.
And he'd have gotten away with it too if it hadn't been for those meddling kids..

[stevieray]

Here's the funny part...

When he got into the trooper's car to follow the van off the highway, the trooper asked him,

"Anybody ever tell you that you look like Elvis?"

That is no lie...

We're home now but getting ready to go to where they towed the van to. There's paint spilled all in the inside (go figure) and we have to start clearing it out, pulling speakers/stereo, rims, etc. The accident was not his fault and the van was in very good condition so who knows what that means...I know it's not replaceable though. Stevo was moving pretty good when I picked him up but he's starting to get a little stiff and uncomfortable. Thanks for all the kind words.

Glad to hear he's OK
Dammit. Too slow..

So was the other driver insured? Or did he even stop?

[Phobia]

Sure - EVERYBODY's a victim. Sack up, TackleMeElmo. The sun will come out tomorrow.

[PastorMikH]

I know you all are his friends and I'm not sure why I wanted to start this topic, but I wanted you all to know...



THANK YOU FOR LETTING US KNOW MRS. STEIVIE!!!!


Steivie, THANK GOD YOU ARE ALRIGHT!!!!


I don't know how I didn't catch this thread sooner.

[Phobia]

I don't know how I didn't catch this thread sooner.

Sooner than what? 20 minutes ago?

[Alton deFlat]

Glad to hear that you're OK, FDE. Don't pig out too much while you're laid-up. You could become CTE.

[PastorMikH]

As for the van, you might seek legal counsel on that. It is old enough to be considered an antique and with the shape it was in, it may actually have more value than what one would initially think.

I had a wreck back in 91. I was driving an old datsun pickup (it was 20 years old and in really good shape) and was rear ended. The lady's insurance company tried to total it and give me a few hundred bucks for it. I held off and argued with them. I ended up keeping the truck, fixing it, and putting more cash in my pocket afterwards than they initially offered.



BTW, I'll second Phobia's motion for an First Down Elmo suit.

[Bob Dole]

(Bob Dole is patiently awaiting the Tackle Me Elmo Photoshop job...)

[Kylo Ren]

I know you said he is "OK", but does he have any injuries, bumps or bruises?

After hearing that his van spun around, flipped on its side, then rolled back upright and onto its wheels, I must ask if he will be changing his name to First Down Evil Kenievel? (sp?) Then, he'd be FDEK.

[PastorMikH]

Sooner than what? 20 minutes ago?



I've been sitting here in the office for the last hour doing nothing but watching the history channel and cruising the planet so, yeah, I should have caught it like 18 minutes sooner.

[Iowanian]

I'm glad Steve's alright........Send the Iowanian clan's best wishes for a speedy recovery. Tell him to be sure and have his neck checked out in a couple of days if it is bothering him at all. The biggest mistake he can make is being too "tough".

Good thing he had the FDE hairspray helmet on, or there may have been some drain bamage.

[Phobia]

That's actually funny. Shockingly funny. I'll throw you some rep, I guess.

[Bwana]

Ouch! I'm glad he came out of it fairly well. :hmmm: As a bonus, it's the bye week so no chance of him jumping up and down after a bad call. :) He won't have to "Elvis up" until Oct 24th. By that point in time, he should be off IR and ready for game day.:thumb:

[Iowanian]

FDE...........relax my man...........you've got the bye week to recover.

Give a jingle if you need any FDE Security we discussed. I'd look cool in a cape.

[milkman]

Is FDE stevieray?

Doesn't make any difference.
Whoever he is, I'm glad to hear that he's ok.

[ROYC75]

Oh My, tell him that both Roy's and family says hello and heal up fast !

Most Thankful he's OK........

[milkman]

No. stevieray is FDE.

Oh, ok.
Thanks for clearing that up.

[WarCry!]

Glad to hear stevieray is ok. What a crappy way to start the day!!! Get well soon - oh and by the way, did I mention my mural ROCKS? I'm still pretty much in awe - I just go downstairs and stair at the damn thing! Incredible job.

[Megbert]

Well good to know FDE is all right. Everytime I see him on the TV its like Cheers but instead of "NORM!" we yell "First Down Elvis!" or "ELVIS!"

[Raiderhater]

Thanks for letting us know. Glad stevie is NOT seriously injured.

[milkman]

Thanks for letting us know. Glad stevie is seriously injured.

So what have you got against him? ROFL

[Bob Dole]

That's actually funny. Shockingly funny. I'll throw you some rep, I guess.

Bob Dole was going to suggest that he might get his own material (see previous "Super Dave" reference). Thanks for encouraging groupthink.

[KC Dan]

I am so bummed about this news. I really enjoyed riding in the Scooby-mobile. I am very happy you are ok, Steve. Just get yourself better & don't worry too much about a vehicle. All it is is metal, it can be replaced. I will give you a call when I get a chance, in San Jose at the moment.

[teedubya]

Sad news about the van. Glad to hear Steve's okay.


my sentiments exactly... That dude in the Tahoe needs neutered.

Bummer about the Chevy Van... sounds dope. However, with your mad painting skills, youll have the cash to get something even cooler...

Glad you are okay.

[Raiderhater]

So what have you got against him? ROFL


He's a dick. :D



Thanks for pointing that out.

[Alton deFlat]

Say... did anyone notice that can of B to tha E is only 10 ounces?

Yea, I noticed that too. Guess they thought 12 ounces of that swill would be too much.

[Phobia]

Bob Dole was going to suggest that he might get his own material (see previous "Super Dave" reference). Thanks for encouraging groupthink.

Oh - well I guess I didn't know who Super Dave was.... Maybe it's all your fault for choosing a lesser known daredevil.

[Mark M]

Damn ... good to hear he's okay. Shame about the Mystery Machine, though.

Tell him I'm sending positive energy his way.

MM
~~:)

[Phobia]

Bummer about the Chevy Van... sounds dope. However, with your mad painting skills, youll have the cash to get something even cooler...

It's hard to get much cooler than the Snoopy van. That thing kicked ass.

[Bob Dole]

Oh - well I guess I didn't know who Super Dave was.... Maybe it's all your fault for choosing a lesser known daredevil.

Lesser known daredevil who had his own topic this week... Of course, you were so busy tweaking the rep system that you probably missed it.

[Phobia]

Rep to you for that.

[mikey23545]

Damn, sure am glad to hear Stevie is OK...FDE would be lost without his business manager.....

[teedubya]

Good thing he had the FDE hairspray helmet on, or there may have been some drain bamage.


I dont care who you are... that is funny right there..

[teedubya]

It's hard to get much cooler than the Snoopy van. That thing kicked ass.


I was trying to make him feel better about the situation. :banghead:

[Phobia]

I was trying to make him feel better about the situation. :banghead:

Oh. Well, the only way to get cooler than that would be to restore a 1950's hearse. Now THAT would completely kick ass.

[Frankie]

.....
Thanks for all the kind words.
Rana

Just curious. Not getting personal I hope. But "Rana!?"... Is that an American name? Back where I come from that is a gals' name. Means "of elegant stature."

[ptlyon]

It was written by his wife, Rana

Good one, Osama. wink.

I was just kidding...... Sheesh! ;)

[Frankie]

Yeah I figured as much. Just was wondering about the origins of the name.

[Frankie]

I hope you have taken it when you read my post again as well as 68. ;)

[Phobia]

Yeah I figured as much. Just was wondering about the origins of the name.

I'm not sure if this will answer your question, but that name came with her when Steve picked her out of the catalogue.

[Logical]

Glad you are alright Stevie. Sorry about your van.

[ExtremeChief]

Glad your OK Stevie. Sucks about your van, man.

[Rain Man]

Just curious. Not getting personal I hope. But "Rana!?"... Is that an American name? Back where I come from that is a gals' name. Means "of elegant stature."

That's odd. Where I come from, it means "of a stumpy build."

[Frankie]

I'm not sure if this will answer your question, but that name came with her when Steve picked her out of the catalogue.
ROFL
What kind of catalogue? ;)

[Rain Man]

Y'know, it just occurred to me. Are there now only 49 ways to leave your lover?

[KCTitus]

Sorry about the van, but look on the bright side, now you can get a real car like a 85 Ford Thunderbird or something.

[Radar Chief]

Sorry about the van, but look on the bright side, now you can get a real car like a 85 Ford Thunderbird or something.

Screw that, get a big gas guzzl’n SUV that never leaves the pavement. It’s the American way.

I fact, FDE, if your interested I’ve got a friend that’s selling his Suburban due to divorce. It’s an older one but its 4X4 and in good shape.
Let me know if interested and I’ll find out the specifics.

[KCWolfman]

Steve - Address of the perp is all we need.

Glad to hear you are okay.

[morphius]

Sorry to hear about the wreck, hope he isn't too bruised up. Had to be a heck of a ride.

[dtebbe]

This thread is worthless without pictures...

DT

[Mr. Kotter]

Bummer; glad to hear he's are doin' okay though.

[Boozer]

Get better soon Stevie!

[Taco John]

Said a prayer for you Steve-io...

Hope it's nothing serious...

[BIG_DADDY]

Hope your feelin better soon, car wrecks suck. Best wishes from BD and lil momma.

[tk13]

Glad to hear you're alright. Get well soon!

[grandllama]

The Scooby Van.... sob.... The beautiful Scooby Van... it was so young and full of life the last time I saw it...

Glad you're ok Stevie, that sound like one hell of a morning wake up...

[Dr. Johnny Fever]

Give him my best and tell him I'm glad he's ok. Thanks for letting us know.

[Bowser]

Good to hear you are still in one piece, Steve.

[stevieray]

thanks for the well wishes...

[old_geezer]

Just got home and read this.................Glad you're ok Stevieray. You can always replace the exoskeleton, but not the valuable commodity inside (you). :thumb:

[Darkwolfe]

:cuss: :cuss: :cuss: Dealer Plate Drivers!!! :cuss: :cuss: :cuss:


Well Steve, time to go shopping for another classic. How about a '68 Sport Fury or something like that? (No you can't have my wagon, I got plans for that thing!) :thumb:

DW

[JazzzLovr]

So sorry to hear about the van, Stevie. Very relieved to hear that you're okay, tho. If you need to catch a ride anywhere, I probably still owe you a few. :)

Glad you're safe.

Let me know if interested and I’ll find out the specifics.
Yeah, find out specifically about the gas mileage. Those older ones got 8 miles per gallon IIRC.

[Inspector]

Glad he's OK! Sounds like a close one.

Check out the Yellow pages under attorneys - maybe get enough for another classic van - although it will be hard to repalce the classic he had.

Good luck.

[POPpystar]

Glad to hear you will be ok.


Take care we all need our FDE!!!!!

[Misplaced_Chiefs_Fan]

Let me add my heartfelt thanks that you're all right!

[stevieray]

thanks MCF and Popystar, It always helps to know who your friends are.

[Gaz]

A moment of silence, please, for the Scooby Van…







..oh yeah, I'm glad FDE is okay and all that stuff.

xoxo~

Flying at half-mast today, in honor of the van.

[ROYC75]

FDE, glad to hear that you are doing OK,sorry about your buddy Scooby. Better him than you !

[Phobia]

thanks MCF and Popystar, It always helps to know who your friends aren't.

What does this mean?

[stevieray]

What does this mean?

typo.

[gblowfish]

FDE: I know "The King" made a movie called "Spin Out..." but this is ridiculous!
Hope your soreness goes away soon. I'd like to see the "Scoobyvan", do you have a pic? I had a cool car in college back in the '70s, it was a 1971 Chevelle. I got hit by a drunk driver and it was totalled. I loved that car and was really depressed for a long time after losing it, so I feel your pain. Hang in there, dude.

[Phobia]

Oh. Well, Popystar isn't your friend. She's a groupie. Now that you're rich and famous, you need to know the difference.

[Phobia]

I'd like to see the "Scoobyvan", do you have a pic?

No. He doesn't. http://www.chiefsplanet.com/BB/showpost.php?p=1988958&postcount=89

I'm thinking he'd look good in a '71 Caddy.
If the shoe fits.....

[Jenny Gump]

Glad he's okay.

Wonder what the odds are of crashing into Elvis? That idiot in the Tahoe should play the lotto.

[Chief Henry]

Elvis,

Get well soon....

[Rausch]

Good to see you up and posting again. :thumb:

[CosmicPal]

Wow....that sucks about your van, FDE. But, thank goodness you survived the rollover- somebody's looking out for you.
:thumb:

Chiefs fans don't die, they just roll over and play dead. :D

[RedNFeisty]

Damn the bad luck, glad that FDE is doing good considering.

[Skip Towne]

I'm thinking he'd look good in a '71 Caddy.
If the shoe fits.....
He'd look like a pimp for sure driving that.

[Nzoner]

Stevie I been on a work deadline and haven't been here much,so sorry about the van and glad you're okay.....well not hurt.

[Darkwolfe]

He'd look like a pimp for sure driving that.

Paint it red and get the Chief's Cheerleaders to hang all over it. If he can pull that off then.... :wayne:

[2bikemike]

Wow, Glad to hear you weren't seriously injured Stevie. Too bad about the shaggin wagon though.

[stevieray]

update: just got off the phone with the insurance company, my witness corrobarated my story, and they are going to send someone to appraise my van.

Humbling experience. It is a miracle I wasn't hurt, I'm not playing that up at all.

Thanks again for all the kind words.

[memyselfI]

I can't read the thread but the responses seem to indicate that SR was in an accident and is apparently ok. I'm glad that it wasn't serious. Bummer about the wheels.
