I was reading the other day that the Eisenhower interstate system requires that one mile in every five must be straight. These straight sections are usable as airstrips in times of war or other emergencies. So does that mean if a plane has to make an emergency landing, they can do it on a highway? And if so, why did they land that plane in the Hudson River in New York City instead of using a highway?

I’m not a comfortable flier to begin with. In fact, I avoid it if at all possible.  I drive to visit family in Salt Lake City when I can. Of course, last year my grandmother took a turn for the worse and I had to go back to see her before she died. Which meant I had to fly. And not only that, but last minute airfares are outrageous — it was more than $800 to get a seat the next day.

I had no choice, but also no credit cards. So I searched online for a quick loan through a car title loan store.  I found Car Title Loans in Salem, and it was exactly what I needed.  I borrowed $1000 off my old-but-paid-for Honda, and was able to leave the next evening.

Fortunately, we didn’t have to do an emergency landing and I got to spend some time with my grandmother in her last days.

I grew up in New York and I moved out here to Hinesville, Georgia when I was in my early twenties. I got a letter in the mail about my high school reunion a few months back, and I really wanted to go. I was pretty tight with the money around the house. I recently took a pay cut at work so I wasn’t able to save money. The money I did save I eventually had to spend to cover the rest of my bills and to make payments on my credit cards. There was no way I was going to miss this reunion though, it’s like a once in a lifetime opportunity. I HAD to go!

I could forget getting a loan from a bank or using a credit card because my credit is horrible – it has been for awhile now. I really didn’t know anyone that I could borrow the money from. I needed a plane ticket and of course money for spending and lodging. My parents wouldn’t give me any money and I didn’t have any friends that had money to spare. I hopped on the net one day and started searching around.

I found Car Title Loans in Hinesville.

It was a God-send. I didn’t have to worry about having bad credit, and my car was paid off so I was able to get approved, fast! They had an online application that took only ten minutes or so to finish, and I was approved in less than an hour. I had the money in my account the next day and I was able to book my flight and my hotel room for the reunion. I’m so grateful I caught a break, because these guys really helped me out when nobody else could!

By the way Hinesville is near Creek Island, Glenville, Mendes, Donald, and Pendarvis.
