It’s sad that anyone feels the need to jump. Sounds like she almost chickened out before being chased.

Hi Hildy. Yes, I’ve seen the signs. I think my sister-in-law once used it. I know she once stopped her car on the bridge and threatened to jump off. She’s fine now; a very religious lady who volunteers at Scripps Chula Vista.

Really?

I have to say, most things the gooobermint does defy the imagination, but that’s actually a rather forward-thinking idea.

Who’da thunk it?

It’s funny, I was just talking about this last night. When I was a reserve on North Island, we would routinely get stopped in traffic because some jerk was threatening to jump.

After about 30 minutes you wish they would just hurry up and do it.

I don’t think anyone uses the phones.

Soooo, I’m guessing that installing speakers on the bridge that play Van Halen 24/7 might be a bad idea?

Waaaay back when in my Navy days, one would have to jump off the ferry if considering suicide.

I really gotta come back down there for a visit.
