Mexican Ghost Story

I can post this because it was sent to me by a real life Latino - so that makes it okay...

Mexican Ghost Story

This is a true story. It happened in Pecos New Mexico, and even though
it sounds like an Alfred Hitchcock tale, it's absolutely true:

This guy was on the side of the road hitch hiking on a very dark and
stormy night. The night was cold and wet and no cars went by. The
storm was so strong; he could hardly see a few feet ahead of him.

Suddenly, he saw a car coming towards him and stop. The guy, without
thinking about it, got in the car, closed the door, and only then
realized that there was nobody behind the wheel!

The car starts going again, very slowly. The guy looks at the road and
sees a curve coming his way. Scared, he starts to pray and begs for his
life. Just before the car hits the curve, a hand appears through the
window and turns the wheel.

The guy, paralyzed in terror, watched how the hand appeared each time
the car approached a curve.

Gathering his strength, he gets out of the car and runs all the way to
the nearest town. Wet and in shock, he goes into a cantina, asks for
two shots of tequila and starts telling everybody about the horrible
experience he just went through. A silence enveloped everyone when they
realized the guy was crying hysterically and wasn't drunk.

About a half hour later, two other guys walk into the same cantina and
one said to the other, "Mira, Pedro. That's the Pendejo that got in the
car while we were pushing.
