FUnny you should mention flat tires.

Last weekend, as I was working on my bus, I noticed a screw embedded straight
in on the right rear tire.  "Oh well!" sez I, since the beast isn't running 
anyway.

But then last night, I'm checking the tranny flud in my 911, and there is
a screw in the SAME tire in the exact same manner!  I pulled it out - the
sucker was 4 inches long!

Boy, what an omen!
