TORNADOES SPUN THROUGH AMSTERDAM AND LUXEMBOURG. IT WAS A JARRING SIGHT, ONE MORE ASSOCIATED WITH THE AMERICAN PLAINS THAN A CENTRAL EUROPEAN SUMMER. NOT MUCH DAMAGE IN AMSTERDAM, BUT IN LUXEMBOURG, CARS WERE SMASHED AND ROOFS RIPPED OFF HOMES. AT LEAST SIX PEOPLE WERE INJURED. EVEN RARER THAN THAT, HOW ABOUT A CREDIT CARD COMPANY TELLING CUSTOMERS THEIR DEBTS ARE WIPED CLEAN? WELL, IT HAPPENED, IN CANADA. CHASE BANK IS GETTING OUT OF THE CREDIT CARD BUSINESS THERE, SO YESTERDAY IT SAID IT'S RIPPING UP CUSTOMERS' BILLS. IT'S CHEAPER THAN TRYING TO CHASE AFTER THE MONEY. AND HOLY SMOKE. SMOKEY BEAR TURNED 75 TODAY. IT WAS ON THIS DAY IN 1944 THAT THE FOREST SERVICE AUTHORIZED CREATION OF A FICTIONAL BEAR FOR ADS AIMED AT PREVENTING WILDFIRES. IN 1950, A CUB RESCUED FROM A NEW MEXICO FIRE BECAME THE LIVING SMOKEY BEAR. HE WAS MOVED TO THE NATIONAL ZOO IN WASHINGTON AND PAIRED WITH GOLDIE, BUT ATTEMPTS TO IGNITE A ROMANCE FAILED.

WE WERE ON WELFARE AND I REMEMBER THE POWDERED MILK, GOVERNMENT POWDERED MILK AND BLOCK CHEESE .>> Reporter: AND BECAUSE THEY WERE SO POOR, YOUNG CARL QUICKLY SET ASIDE HIS PROFESSIONAL ASPIRATIONS AND FOCUSED INSTEAD ON BECOMING THE BEST AUTO MECHANIC HE COULD BE .>> SO THIS WAS THE PARTS STORE WHERE I GOT ALL MY CUSTOMERS FROM .>> Reporter: SO YOU WOULD WORK ON CARS IN THE PARKING LOT OF PARTS STORE ?>> OH, YEAH, SOMETIMES 'TIL 1: 00, 2: 00 IN THE MORNING .>> Reporter: EVENTUALLY, HE GOT HIS OWN SHOP, AND FOR 15 YEARS HE DID OKAY, UNTIL ONE DAY HE DECIDED TO RATCHET THINGS UP. IN 2006, CARL ENROLLED HERE AT URSULINE COLLEGE. HIS INTENTION WAS TO GET A BUSINESS DEGREE TO HELP HIM MANAGE HIS REPAIR SHOP. BUT THERE WAS ONE
