Things like this make me proud I live in Fresno.

Bizarre crash leaves car on N.W. Fresno roof.




And, of course, this:

Woman breaks gas line during Fresno driving test

A woman taking a driving test ended the exam with a flourish this morning, crashing her car into a large gas line and forcing the evacuation of the Department of Motor Vehicles office in northeast Fresno.


The adjoining Sierra Lanes bowling alley at Blackstone and Sierra avenue also was cleared.

The accident happened about 10 a.m. Firefighters shut down the gas line and both buildings were reopened.

Throw in a bomb scare at the Fresno Courthouse, and by the end of 2012, we may be looking at a full-blown Mayan apocalypse, complete with a 30 foot tall Stay-Puff Marshmallow man.
