This truck ran into the back of a grain truck and flipped it over spilling 12,000 pounds of corn all over the highway and sending this truck across the median, down through a ditch filled with 2 feet of water, then up the other side of the highway to rest on a cable. The Missouri State Highway Patrol had the highway shut down for almost 3 hours dealing with this accident. I got the call and they explained that they thought the trucks involved in the accident were too big for me to handle but the highway was blocked and was there any way I could assist. As everyone knows; I have big giant balls!!! and am always up for a challenge.To make a long story short, I retreived this cable truck that was way too heavy for me to handle. You should have seen the State Troopers faces when I stood my truck up on the side of the highway while loading this thing. They all just about shit!!! Drive Careful -TommyThanks Tommy

Ever wonder who the s lhouetted girl in the Apple iPod ads is? The New York Post interviewed her this week:
This is the first time that Mandy Coulton, a 26-year-old dancer from Los Angeles, has been revealed as the body behind the hugely successful ad campaign for Apple's iPod music players. More than 20 million iPods have been sold since it was introduced in 2001.
She was paid a flat fee of $1,500 for the shoot - a tiny fraction of the billions Apple has reaped from the sale of its sleek portable player. But Coulton - posing here with one of her ads - says it still wasn't enough to buy one of the must-have gadgets.
"At the time, $1,500 seemed a lot of money - but now my picture is absolutely everywhere. But I'm not bitter or anything," the stunning brunette said.
"I would like one - but $400 for an iPod is too much for me at the moment. I can't justify spending that much money when I have day-to-day stuff to pay for, like the car and rent."

BERLIN (Reuters) - A fish caught in an east German lake near the Polish border not only got off the hook but also lured a 46-year-old fisherman to his death, police in the eastern town of Eisenhuettenstadt said Tuesday.
A police spokeswoman said the fish pulled the fishing rod out of the man's hands and dragged it about 100 metres away from shore at the Kleinen Pohlitzer lake near Eisenhuettenstadt. The man took off his clothes and swam after the pole.An eyewitness said the man reached the rod floating on the surface but then suddenly stopped moving. The witness, 54, swam out to help him and pulled the fisherman back to shore, where he was later pronounced dead, police said.
"I know it sounds like an incredible story but it really happened," an Eisenhuettenstadt police spokeswoman said. "It was apparently just an ordinary fish."
