Opening Activity 9/15/11

This article is about an 85 year old man who was trapped in his car for 40 hours straight. This man was driving down a steep road in Texas to look at a pond. The car couldn't makes it's way back up the hill resulting in the car rolling back into a ditch. The man was trapped with no food and almost no water. After a very long time before his car battery ran out he repeatedly honked his horn desperate for someone to find him. For the last 6 hours of being trapped he took out a pen and started writing his will and a goodbye note to his family on the armrest. Eventually a neighbor saw the car and rescue finally came.
