Yeah, I was being sarcastic when I said I wanted to live in Sudan, Congo, & Somalia. |

Most of the original posts said that it was an instructor that died. So there were no paying guests involved in the accident.  |

Paco- Watson was not a professional driver. According to the Associated Press he was a hotel bellhop. |

| Fleastiff Member since: Oct 27, 2012 Threads: 62 Posts: 7831 | Not necessarily. It would be to a public relations hack's benefit to describe a bell hop who from time to time parks cars as a "professional driver". Somewhere a publicist or lawyer is trying to put the Mouse's best paw forward. |
