I Think He Forgot Something

So this is funny. But according to nwitimes.com, a 33-year-old suspect made his getaway after robbing a convenience store but didn't get far. The guy had robbed a LaCrosse gas station after he informed the store clerk he had a gun. The suspect, Sean Harris, made off with food, beverage items, and cigarettes… but no money! I guess the guy was super hungry since the report stated he had a blood alcohol level higher than the limit for legally operating a motor vehicle. Harris fled the gas station, with whatever he could carry, when an Indiana State Police trooper came upon the getaway car. Not in some crazy high-speed chase, or from using some awesome spy satellite that Vin Diesel uses in all his action films. NOPE! Harris’ vehicle ran out of gas. That’s right, he forgot to steal some fuel before making off with his goodies. The Indiana State Police trooper found his vehicle stopped along a two-lane highway. Harris is being held in jail without bail. He was arraigned in LaPorte Circuit Court on a felony robbery charge.

How does that happen? I know the guy was drunk, but really. Maybe he went to the gas station to fill up but decided he wanted food instead. Good thing, he lied to the clerk about having a gun and good thing no one was hurt at the gas station or on the road with this guy.

Historic Route 66- Main Street of America

Historic Route 66- Main Street of America Over the years, Route 66 has provided travelers, dreamers, and renegades with an experience no other route can give. Established November 11, 1926, covered 2,448 miles and originally ran through eight states starting from Chicago, Ill to Santa Monica, CA and quickly began to be one of the most popular highways in America. It soon became known by other names such as The Mother Road, Will Rogers Highway, and was spotlighted in John Steinbeck’s classic novel The Grapes of Wrath. When The Great Depression hit in 1929 over 200,000 traveled to Californa seeking reprieve from The Dust Bowl and used The Mother Road to escape. Some traveled west with the promise of work. With barren land surrounding them, farmers and their families gathered essentials and traveled west in hopes of work. Towns, mom and pop businesses, and service stations along the highway survived The Great Depression by catering to travelers with supplies, fuel, and car parts. Res...
