I knew an old farmer who picked up a hitchhiker, and the man pulled a gun on him and told the farmer to take him up Hwy 41 to Evansville, IN. Old farmer got to driving really fast on that crooked road, and the hitchhiker began telling him to slow down, or he was going to kill them. Farmer said, I have to hurry, if I'm going to get home in time to milk tonite.. Hitchhiker said slow down and I'll get out......and he did. Old man would tell that story, then say that what the hitchhiker didn't know, was that he had his pistol under his leg, just in case it was needed.
