Back in the day--- when Interstate traffic was lighter, a friend of mine was flying in a small plane and landed on the highway--safely. He was very low on fuel and didn't know where the nearest airport was.
Now, you ain't going to believe this but a contractor stopped to see what happened and directed John to the nearest airport. Contractor gave him enough gas to go on and blocked traffic for a safe take-off. [This would have been in southern Indiana, about thirty five years ago.]
Haven't had this happen right in front of me but I'm sure
it's a surprise that you wood never forget.

Heard about the incident just this morn...
That's the outfit that's putting a new building
in behind me shoreside.. They've made me shake
my head at some of the stuff they've done
around here...
The owner of the property has basically hired
mostly people he has delt with on other much
smaller projects than this one.. The project
originally was supposed too be done this month
and all they got is the pilings in and the cement
foundation and thats just laid in.. He's basically
not doing real well with his project...
