Two stories both true one in part.
Photo posted at my local U-Haul Rental Center with caption DON'T.
U-haul truck drove under the entrance canopy at a local golf course club house restaurant 11 foot canopy 12 foot truck.. nuff said.
The other was a cartoon (John Darling) he worked for the fictional Channel 1 TV station.
Well the cartoon had both Mr. Darling's remote team and a team from Channel 7 reporting an accident that tied up traffic on the freeway.. Both stations were on the scene. They beat police (who had yet to make the scene when the report was aired) How did they get there so fast??? THEY WERE THE SCENE.. yup one of 'em was going the wrong way and did a head to head with the other.
Well that was posted in the Vehicle assignment office at the REAL Channel 7 (WXYZ TV Detroit) with the caption "DON'T" (Far as I know they never did)
Finnaly a phone call I got on the Job (Police dispatcher) From one of the Major News papers in Detroit asking about a truck fire that
1: Was right outside my window
2: Was reported by a reporter for Chanel 4 (WDIV TV Detroit) who was interviewing the driver of the truck as he reported the fire to me and I to fire dept.
The newspaper reporter wanted all the details I can not give out.. but I ask him why he did not already have 'em. after the paper had a man on the scene too.. Took him a while to figure out who's truck it was (The paper's).
Oh well. Some days I truly enjoyed the job.
Home was where I park it. but alas the.
