On their way to the Amish Corn Celebration near Ames, a blonde driver loses control of a pickup on an absolutely flat, straight road and plunges into the only lake in the state. There are a couple of swirls on the surface of the lake as the driver and passenger get the doors open and bob to the surface. However, there is no sign of the six blondes who were riding in the bed of the topperless pickup. Precious seconds go by and the driver gets worried when suddenly, the six bob to the surface, spluttering and choking...
They all swim to shore and from the safety of the shortline, the driver asks them what took them so long to come to the surface. They splutter, We couldnt get the damn tailgate down.
Tracey isnt scheduled to work so I WAS going to sleep in today but the corn starch phone went off and scared me out of my dreams. School is cancelled for today due to inclimate weather was what the smarmy automated voice said. A&B will be thrilled to have a snow day! They were out goofing off last night when it started snowing but they returned home with a couple of friends before it got too bad. Tracey told them they were home for the evening and the other two fellows were welcome to stay the night if they wanted to. They eventually went off into the night and we presume they made it home safely.
