Hitchhiking on a dark night . . .
Published Apr 13, 2005
Hitchhiking on a dark night, a man sees a car coming toward him. When it stops, he hops in the passenger seat.
No one is behind the wheel. But, suddenly, the car starts moving. The man looks down the road and see a curve coming up. He panics and reaches for the steering wheel. But then a hand reaches through the window and turns the wheel, smoothly navigating the turn. Paralyzed with terror, the man watches as the hand appears before every curve.
When the car finally coasts to a stop, the man gets out and runs into a bar and tells everyone about his amazing experience.
Pretty soon, two guys walk into the bar. " Look, Pete," one says, "it's the guy who got into the car while we were pushing it."
