Oops, and the poor wife was driving. Do you think she'll ever hear the end of it?

Yeah, I thought of that. If I were her, the story would take on dimensions of how she had to battle a shark to save the lifeguard who jumped in to save her. No reason to let the truth get in the way of a good story. 8-) :lol:

Janice, a little embellishment never hurt a thing at a time like that - I like your thinking.

I took my friend Darlene out last week with her new guide dog ... and the dog tripped me and down clumsy me went onto the pavement. I told Darlene that I'm already claiming the dog knocked me into oncoming traffic to save HER. She liked that version better, too. Why waste a good pratfall? LOL!

Ohhh my, I feel so badly for her. She will probably never, ever hear the end of it now. Poor woman. He will rag her about that till the end of their days. He will have to make sure that if their family and friends know all about it, with embellishments if they didn't see on the TV news or read about it in the paper.

My heart truly goes out to her...

I'm sorry ... (gasp! gasp!) that just caught me off guard and tickled me.

Yes, Sparkle, where ARE you?

Oh my gosh those poor people. I hope they have good insurance. My DH would never blame me if that happened,I hate to admit but I'm the one who tends more to do that to him.

Made me think of Sparkle too, I've been wondering what's going on with her, it's been a long time since I've seen her post. Hopefully she has found something wonderfully exciting. Wonder if she will be leaving SD soon.

I've been busy emailing folks - I emailed Sparkle also - and she replied that she actually tried to come to the forum yesterday - and couldn't remember her password. I think I need to do a post that you do NOT click on the "resend activation letter" when you forgot your password - you click on "forgot password"

Anyway, I went in and changed her password - since I can't see anyone's password, but I can do that - and sent it to her and told her to log in, then make one of her own again - then to remember it LOL

Hopefully we'll hear from our Sparkle again SOON.
