I heard somewhere that a helicopter ambulance ride runs about 14-thousand dollars so I think I'd opt to hitchhike to the Lakes Region Hospital emergency room. I bet you that someone lying down by the side of the road, all bloody and in shock could get a fast, free hitchhike ride to the hospital. Someone with an old Ford pickup truck would volunteer a fast trip in the back of the truck.

Better a freebie pickup truck ride than a 14-thousand dollar helicopter. What did people do before the DHART copter was here starting in about 1995?
Maybe Stephen Gostkowski or Adam Vinatieri's legs are worth more, but I know my leg is worth $14k?
