Fact is Stranger than Fiction

Last weekend, a friend of the family drove to Alabama to spend a day or two with her family for a short visit. On her way back to Jacksonville, near the Tallahassee area, her car started making strange whirring and growling noises that were very loud. Since she was alone on this long journey and any friendly help that she could call was hundreds of miles away, she naturally started to panic. She stopped at the nearest rest stop and looked her car over but no source of the sound could be found. The wheels and undercarriage looked good and nothing looked amiss under the hood. She decided to continue down the highway because all gauges looked good and nothing appeared to be broken. When she got back up to speed, the loud growling and whirring started up again so she immediately pulled off on the shoulder. She looked the car over again and decided to unload her cargo for a better inspection. Lo and behold, she found the source of the noise. It seems that her cargo shifted somehow and her portable "Kareoke" machine had switched on with the microphone pressed against the side of the car. All the road noise was amplified throughout the car causing one heck of a racket.

Just thought I’d share this story with ya’ll and maybe you could get a chuckle.
