This was
send to me by a Bill at “My Wonderful World” (http://whstoneman.blogspot.com/)
and after hardy laugh, I decided I’d have to type it up for posting – thanks Bill
I needed that.
(This is supposedly a true account recorded
in the Police Log of Sarasota, FL)
An elderly
Florida lady did her shopping and, upon returning to her car, four males in the
act of leaving with her vehicle.
She dropped
her shopping bags and drew her handgun, proceeding to scream at the top of her
lungs, “I have a gun and I know how to use it!
Get out of the car.”
The four men
didn’t wait for the second threat. They
got out of the car and ran like mad.
The lady,
somewhat shaken, then proceeded to load her shopping bags into the back of the
car and got into the driver’s seat. She
was so shaken that she could not get her key into the ignition.
She tried
and tried, and then finally realized why.
It was for the same reason she had wondered why there was a football, a
Frisbee, and two 12 packs of beer in the front seat.
A few
minutes later, she found her own car parked four or five spaces down.
She loaded
her bags into the car and drove to the police station to report her mistake.
The sergeant
to whom she told the story couldn’t stop laughing.
He pointed
to the other end of the counter, where four pale men were reporting a car
jacking by a mad, elderly woman described as white, less than five feet tall,
glasses, curly white hair, and carrying a large handgun.
No charges
were filed.
Moral of the
story?
If you’re
going to have a senior moment . . . make it memorable.

Have a great
day and thanks for stopping by Almost Heaven South.

Good one Bill & Larry. I had to laugh because we drive a white SUV and half of the cars in the parking lot look exactly like ours. In fact once we even tried to unlock someone else's car. This could definitely be true. Love it that little old ladies can still scare someone...

ReplyDeleteTee hee! Reminds me of when I was growing up, my elderly aunt was tired and returned to our car to wait in it for mom and me to finish grocery shopping. When we went to the car later, she wasn't there --- she was a row over sitting and waiting for us in someone elses' car! Glad your Saturday humor is back!
ReplyDeleteThat just put a smile on my face!
