A MEXICAN couple were recovering separately after a marital spat got out of control and saw them firing guns, throwing knives and hurling homemade bombs, Mexican daily Milenio said yesterday. In scenes taken straight out of hit romantic comedy Mr and Mrs. Smith starring Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, Juan Espinosa and Irma Contreras fought until their house blew up in a homemade gasoline bomb explosion, the paper said.

Police called to the home in the indigenous Mayan Indian town of Oxkutzcab in the southeastern state of Yucatan arrested Mr Espinosa. Ms Contreras was taken to hospital with third-degree burns.

A local police official confirmed the report but declined to provide further information.

In the violence-filled movie about the fictional Smiths, Pitt and Jolie play married assassins ordered to kill each other.

Mr Espinosa told reporters he was glad his wife had suffered burns, while Ms Contreras said said she was only sorry she had not "hacked off his manhood" during the fight.

Gun, knives, AND bombs. When they fight, they do it right!!

And don't holler at me about the date being tomorrow, talk to the author.

Your screen name seems extremely appropriate to the topic at hand. Thanks for the smile.

she was only sorry she had not "hacked off his manhood" during the fight.

Seems like that's a common feeling among certain types of
women.
Fortunately, I don't know any like that.

The link is Au which is Austrailia and it is already tomorrow there which explains the date.

Family values don't stop at the border.

[kittymyrib]

Ah, those crazy love birds will be sleeping together as soon as she gets out of the hospital. They almost always do...

Ms Contreras said said she was only sorry she had not "hacked off his manhood"

Some folks just can't hack marriage.

[Ptarmigan]

Aye Caramba!

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

Hehe. Just wait for their anniversary!!

[Qwertrew]

Latin foreplay.

Latin foreplay.

LOL! That's gonna be some extra-special make-up nookie.

Maybe it started because he refused to go get batteries for her "toys" until the Soccer match was over.

Juan Espinosa and Irma Contreras fought until their house blew up

Maybe they were fighting over her taking his last name.

For some reason, the first thing I thought of when I saw the title of this thread was Bill and Hillary Clinton.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

With the house blown up, it better be good!!

Makes me wonder what kind of couple keeps homemade bombs handy. They're hot-blooded alright!!

[I Drive Too Fast]

Ay Yi Yi ping.

[elkfersupper]

Something about your screen names drew me to this thread.

Not sure what it is.

Full-time RV-er myself. Seen more of this than I care to mention over the past 3 years.

said she was only sorry she had not "hacked off his manhood" during the fight.

There's a good sign that the honeymoon is pretty much over.

[Excuse_My_Bellicosity]

I'm a sucker for irony.

[isthisnickcool]

The couple in happier days.

[Chewbacca]

I wonder what the makeup sex is going to be like?

[pollyannaish]

That lends all new meaning to "be careful, she/he has a tendency to go off."

I did too. Flying ashtrays and lamps can be hazardous to one's health.

Holy frijoles

...firing guns, throwing knives and hurling homemade bombs...

We trained professional counselors know to look for these subtle signs of a fraying relationship...

[Blue Jays]

Hi All-

I wonder how much and what type of gunfire was exchanged. Sounds pretty cool!

[Trillian]

Explosive!

[Fishing-guy]

So, does Irma look like Angelina?

Humor of the day

[rawhide]

Why do I suspect a movie is in the offering?
I guess this is where real life imitates art?

[sheik yerbouty]

I hope there were no dirty bombs used in such an acrimonious matter..

[cpdiii]

I wonder where my ex wife went. I think I know now. :-)

I knew an older couple who were fighting at their rural home. She grabbed the shotgun and fired it at him twice, hitting him once in the neck. He was bleeding profusely from the neck and she told him to drive himself to the hospital because she had to go out and milk the cow. He did drive himself to the hospital and she did milk the cow. She also went to jail when the hospital reported the shotgun wound although the husband tried to convince the authorities it was "no big deal."

Aaaah....true love!

Um...doesn't everybody?
