Historier
Minnesota Ghost........................
This happened a few a months ago just outside
of Willmar, a little town in the back country of Minnesota, and while it sounds
like an Alfred Hitchcock tale, it's real.
This out-of-state traveler was on the side
of the road, hitchhiking on a real dark night in the middle of a thunderstorm.
Time passed slowly and no cars went by. It was raining so hard he could hardly
see his hand in front of his face.
Suddenly he saw a car moving slowly,
approaching and appearing ghost like in the rain. It slowly and silently crept
toward him and stopped. Wanting a ride real bad the guy jumped in the car and
closed the door; only then did he realize that there was nobody behind the
wheel, and no sound of an engine to be heard over the rain.
Again the car crept slowly forward and the
guy was terrified, too scared to think of jumping out and running. The guy saw
that the car was approaching a sharp curve and, still too scared to jump out,
he started to pray and began begging for his life; he was sure the ghost car
would go off the road and into a nearby lake and he would drown!
But just before the curve, a shadowy
figure appeared at the driver's window and a hand reached in and turned the
steering wheel, guiding the car safely around the bend. Then, just as silently,
the hand disappeared through the window and the hitchhiker was alone again!
Paralyzed with fear, the guy watched the hand reappear every time they reached
a curve.
Finally the guy, scared to near death, had
all he could take and jumped out of the car and ran and ran, into town, into
Willmar. Wet and in shock, he went into a bar and voice quavering, ordered two shots
of whiskey, then told everybody about his supernatural experience.
A silence enveloped and everybody got
goose bumps when they realized the guy was telling the truth (and was not just
some drunk).
About half an hour later two guys walked
into the bar and one says to the other, 'Look Ole, ders dat idiot that rode in our car when we
wuz pushin it in da rain.
Ole wasn't looking where he was going and his grocery
cart collided with another as he turned a corner in a Wal-Mart.
Ole says to the other guy, "Vhoops!
I'm sorry, but I vas yust looking for my vife."
"What a coincidence," says the stranger,
"so am I, and I'm getting a little frustrated"
Ole: "Vell, maybe I can help you.
Vhat does yer vife look like?"
Stranger: "She's tall, slender, with long, blond
hair, blue eyes, long legs, firm boobs, and a nice butt. What does your
wife look like?"
Ole: "Neffer mind, let's yust look fer
yurs!"
A Norwegian traveling salesman got caught in a storm
and stopped at the nearest farmhouse for shelter. He was welcomed in and
offered dinner and Rommegrøt. After a very satisfying meal, the salesman
asked to spend the night. "Dat's ok, but you vill haf to sleep
between me and duh vife." In the morning, after the farmer got up to do
the chores, the wife whispered to the salesman "Now's your
chance!" The salesman leapt out of bed exclaiming, "You mean,
there's more Rommegrøt?" and headed for the kitchen.
Government surveyors
Government surveyors came to Ole's Minnesota farm last spring and asked if they could do some surveying.
Ole agreed, and Lena even served them a nice meal at noontime.
After their work was done, the surveyors told Ole, "You were so kind to us; we wanted to give you the bad news in person, instead of by letter."
"What's the bad news?" asked Ole. "Well, your farm is right on the state line," the surveyors said, "and after our work was completed, we discovered your farm is not in Minnesota. It's actually in Iowa."
"That's the best news I've had in a long time," said Ole.
"I was just telling Lena this morning that I don't think I can take another winter in Minnesota!"
