Man’s car goes on automatic pilot in Leroy

A Paw Paw man destroyed his car Wednesday after putting his toolbox in the driver’s seat. Calhoun County sheriff deputies said the accident happened when the man attempted to free his car from a muddy field by placing the toolbox on the accelerator, then getting behind the car and trying to push it free. The man said he was lost in the Leroy Township area about 10:15 a.m. When he backed into a field to turn around on 1/2 Mile Road near J Drive South, the car became stuck in the mud, said Lt. James McDonagh. “After several attempts to free the car, the man placed his toolbox on the vehicle accelerator, exited the vehicle and attempted to push the vehicle free,” McDonagh said. “The man was successful in freeing the vehicle, although unsuccessful regaining control of the vehicle.” Deputies said the full-size Mercury sedan accelerated across a cut soybean field with the man running behind. The car reached an estimated speed of 100 mph, traveled a half-mile, sometimes becoming airborne. The car then struck a tree. Deputy Steve Hinkley, an accident reconstructionist, said the impact crushed the car back to the windshield and he used the damage to estimate the speed. The man, whose name was not released by deputies, was not hurt. No tickets were issued in the incident.

Tired of the inconvenience of driving from the airport to
his country cottage, a man equipped his small plane with
pontoons so he could land on the lake directly in front of
his cottage. On his next trip however, he made his approach
down the airport runway as usual.


Alarmed, his wife cried out, “Are you crazy? You can’t land
this plane here without wheels!” The startled husband yanked
the nose up, narrowly averting certain disaster.

Continuing home, he landed the plane on the lake without
mishap. As he sat there, visibly shaken, he said to his
wife, “I don’t know what on earth got into me. That’s the
stupidest thing I’ve ever done in my life!”

And with that, he opened the door and stepped out… right
into the water.


This is a story about me when I was in kindergarten. I love cookies, always have. In kindergarten they would give us breaks where we would receive a cookie and some punch. I ate my cookie and loved it. The teacher then said we were going to draw. I raised my hand. The teacher asked what I wanted. I said I wanted another cookie. She said no, I wasn’t going to get another cookie but was going to draw instead. I said I really wanted another cookie. She said NO, sit down and draw.

So I began drawing with the rest of the class. Pretty soon, I raised my hand again. The teacher asked me what I wanted now. I told her I was finished drawing. She said good, I should hold up my drawing for the rest of the class to see. So I did……

This is the title of one of the best CD’s I own. It’s by Joe Bonamassa. It has occurred to me that some of you may not have heard him, or even heard of him. That changes here and now. Have yourselves a free listen. If you like it as much as I do, let me know. And I might as well post his tour calendar as well. I saw him in Akron, Ohio about a month ago, and this guy is better live than on a studio recorded album. Not many artists can pull that off. He doesn’t even seem to try, it just happens. Happy listening.
