ROTFLMAO

Good one Beirut

Once my wife screamed my name from the other room, in a way that made me think there was an intruder in the house or she had lopped off her fingers.

I rushed to her aid only to discover that a bird had found its way into the bedroom.

Later that evening I was just sitting at the computer when I noticed that my colon sphincter ached for some reason.

All well that ends well mate. May you and the kids have many scares that end as nicely

Glad to hear everything was fine, Beirut. I've done stuff like that

I'm glad that all turned out well. You can probably look foward to similar things.

My God, and they're not even teenagers yet.

Phone rings

Gregoshi: Hello.

Voice: Hello, I'm Mary Smith from Nationwide Insurance. I'm calling for your daughter to ask her some questions about the accident she was in last night. Is she there?

Gregoshi: Accident? What accident? (thinking: must be a mistake, she was dropped off at the mall last night with some friends)

Voice: You don't know about the accident?

Gregoshi: Uh, no.

Voice: Oh, I'm sorry. She was in the car of Erika Brown when it was involved in a collision - but don't worry, everyone is okay. (Gregoshi thinking: Ah, Erika. She just got her driver's license last month ...)

Gregoshi: That's a relief. Where was this accident?

Voice: It was in the town of West Chester.

(Gregoshi thinking: she was supposed to be at the mall in Exton)

All this because my daughter and her friends got bored at the mall. Beware the bored teenager - stupid things (or worse) will happen.

Anyway, I'm glad your daughter is okay Beruit.

Nice job Dad!!

I can just see the airborne dresser

Kids = why 20-somethings turn 45 seemingly overnight.

You are served, Sir:

Tip on securing the dresser: find the nearest stud first. Regular drywall can't withstand the pulling stress and torque of a determined 40-pound climber.

Glad the girls are OK.

Glad that all went well, Beirut-kun! Pheeew…

A word of comfort; I hear that some women like white-haired or gray-haired man, even bold-headed men, so, not all is lost. Hence, don’t get a shock when you step before the mirror in the morning.
