mayo

[Joseph Tracy]

A tractor-trailer crash in southwest Missouri spilled 40,000 pounds of mayonnaise on Interstate 44. Harpers weekly review 03/8/2011

A hitchhiker named Traverse, said to have been involved in the accident is being sought for further questioning.  The driver told the the authorities that the hitch-hiker told him his family has a long history with freak mayo events and dynamite. 

OK the first line is from the news. Hey, this is for real.  In 1970 I was hitch-hiking from Chicago to California when I got a ride with 2 kids, one of whom was driving the stolen car without a license to see his girlfriend in Texas or some damn where. We got stopped when a dynamite truck exploded  ahead and we were pulled over off the freeway in a roadblock.  True story. Weird shit happens in Missouri. No mayo was involved to the best of my recall.
