Pictures Of The Day: Hopes, Dashed

Just got these, thought I'd share them with all of you... Tomorrow I take delivery of the Town Car's replacement. The new monstrous "Britax Pinnacle 90" child seat showed up today. So after tomorrow, no more looking back. But for tonight, let's take a look. Look at the way the entire dash beam called it a day, huh? Now let's take a gander at what happened on my side.

Easy to see how my spleen got KIA and I fractured nine bones, all but one on the right side of my body. That bench seat completely exploded. I wonder what would have happened in a bucket-seat Panther like a Vic LX?
Here's the most important shot:

John's child seat, undamaged. Thank God. But that doesn't mean I didn't buy him twice as big and safety-feature-filled this time!
