I was driving along a little country lane this morning in the SSR with the top
down. As I passed underneath an overhanging black walnut tree, one of the
walnuts fell and boinked me right on the noggin. Better my head than the
windshield, I suppose.
For those unfamiliar with the black walnut, with the husk intact, as was the
case with this one, they're only slightly smaller than a tennis ball and about
twice as heavy. Ouch! Gotta be careful out there. :-)
