Key Broke

My 95 F150 is stranded in my driveway with the wheels turned. While trying to start it, the key gave great resistance and would not turn to start. I jiggled the shift lever and the steering wheel, but ended breaking the key off.

Is there any way to get it to where I can start it with a screw driver or whatever? I don't care what I hack, cut, or saw, I just need to get it running. If nothing else I need to straighten the wheels and get it into neutral so a tow truck can take the old gal to the junk yard. (Rather not since the truck runs pretty well, despite being a 360K mile rust bucket!)

Thanks
