Good news for me, it was a very short screw and it was diagonal through the tread. Leak checked the area with the screw in and out and no bubbles!
When I was in high school and through college and tech I worked in gas stations and shops and I fixed a lot of tires. Plugs were a good short term repair, but shifting belts would sometime sever them and they would leak again. Back in the day, patches were the way to go, but after 27 years, I wondered if things had changed.
It isn't a bad idea to carry a plug kit in your car, they will get you home in a pinch!
Thanks all!!!
