Then there's the one about the mosquito that landed at [local air force base] and the fuel truck was half-way to it before they noticed it wasn't a fighter jet.
Up north a few winters back the weather was so cold that words froze up as you talked. People had to stand around a fire to have a conversation. When spring thaw finally came the sound of all the melting conversations was deafening.
Then there was the time that Pecos Bill lassoed and rode a twister, but that's a tale for another time.
