Snowflake Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 This is a true story ... An elderly Florida lady did her shopping, and upon returning to her car, found 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 voice, "I have a gun, and I know how to use it! Get out of the car!" The four men didn't wait for a second invitation. They got out 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 it dawned on her why. A few minutes later, she found her own car parked four or five spaces farther down. She loaded her bags into the car and drove to the Police station. 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. AH, SENIOR MOMENTS.... (I have to admit, I was CRYING when I read this...couldn't even share it with hubby I was laughing so hard!)

Don Wood Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 That was actually on an episode of "Judging Amy", where Amy's mother, played by Tyne Daly, did that same thing. Don Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stand4hope Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 That was great!!! I actually got in and sat down in the wrong car one time - right in front of Dunkin Donuts with the great big windows where everybody can see. The good news is that EVERY single person in the store was facing the counter and their backs to the parking lot, and nobody saw me do it. I just felt weird for a second, and the trim was popping off on the door frame, and I remember thinking "How in the world did I do that?" when I realized . . . . OMG!!!! You never saw anybody move so fast or anybody turn so red in the face. I was out of that parking lot at interstate speed. Peggy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
