Boom!! Crash!! Bang!! I feel like Chicken Little...

The sky fell in this morning, and I slept through it! Was woken by a quietly spoken police woman at my bedroom door, to be told that one of our residents, a lovely gentleman who will not be named, has wiped out the support post on my front porch while reversing.

He had gone for the brake, hit the accelerator, and WHAM!!!.

First flood, now the earth moves (or the sky fell in, take your pick). What can happen next? At least the sandbags slowed him down...
