Make That Two Tow Trucks
Submitted by Cheryl Halden

I was taking my roommate in my 1961 Rambler to pick up her car at a garage. I was going down the highway ramp when all of a sudden we were pointed upward towards the clouds while sparks shot out from both sides of the car. The car had broken in two behind the front seat. We slid down the ramp, sparks still flying, while the other cars came to a near standstill as they watched in shock. A good Samaritan gave us a ride to the garage. I called my dad and told him the car broke down. He asked if he should send a tow truck. I replied, "You better send two."
