Very "lively beginning to the wedding" - INDEED! WOW.

We didn't crash into the gate, the limo was basically smoking the whole ride, though the driver kept telling us it was just "burning off extra oil". Anyway. If anyone has pictures, could you email them to me at yellowfarmer@hotmail.com so I can add them to my crazy wedding album? Thanks! Also, the limo company was Discover Boston, and they have done NOTHING to compensate us for this - they haven't even refunded our money? Any lawyer looking for some pro bono work?

The limo in question was carrying a belated bride to her wedding at the Memorial Church in Harvard. It arrived about 30 minutes late, and the passengers exited in a hurry, accelerated by the fire they saw coming from the engine as they got out. The car exploded after everyone got out and safely away from it. It did, however, make for a lively beginning to the wedding. My cousin, a friend of the bride, was sitting in the church when it exploded." So that's your story, Rascal King, and you're sticking to it, huh? Sounds like a good cover story, no? Especially that family touch, with the cousin at the wedding.... If the Dowbrigade had been a "real" journalist we would have stayed on the scene until we had nailed down an eye-witness to the explosion and who saw who exited the vehicle and how, but we had miles to go on Saturday afternoon, and promises to keep, so we'll never be sure.

I thought you were a professional journalist. I had mine up in 2 hours! http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/fensterm/2005/04/30#a28 You were there earlier than me though. I had to close the library before I could go. Everything was out by then. But the front of the car was burned. See my third pic. Mobile meth was one theory I had. The other was Cocktail Molotov. It looks to me like the fire started inside. -r

Mobile cyrstal meth lab goes boom. Plausible given the totally "pimped out" ride (as the young people say). I wouldn't think there would be much of a market for Cyrstal Meth in Harvard Yard. Maybe the dudes were just passing thru.
