HOLY SHIT... The victim, Russell Knudson, is a guy that I used to work in a restaurant with back from 2006-2008. He was the wood fire oven pizza chef, and we got to know each other pretty well. He was riding his bicycle everywhere back then, and this place was probably about 5 miles from where he lived so I used to let him throw his bike in the back of my Subaru and I'd take him home after getting off the closing shift. Last time I saw him was probably about a year ago, I was driving and saw him on his bike, so I busted a U-turn just to say what's up to him. Super friendly hippy. He was probably getting a ride home after work when this douchebag killed him.
I was actually just talking about him the other day while trying to tell a friend the positives of
not having a car when it comes to gaming girls, and used Russell as an example. I wasn't the only person who gave him rides home - he turned me onto keeping note of what girls drive pickup trucks or SUVs. He did, and would hook the waitresses up with food and they'd take him home after work.
He got me with elderly chat. Now... add in a bit of game and intent to hit that, and, well, the opportunity is yours to take or squander.
RIP Russ
I wish I didn't hope this kid would be found guilty of charges, because he potentially has a racing career ahead of him (and Lord knows that's one of MY dreams), but I do.
