A man from Chongqing in Southern China nearly suffocated to death after a romantic gesture to his girlfriend went wrong.
Mr Hu Seng had asked his friend to tape him into a box so he could ship himself via a courier service to his girlfriend, Li Wang.
However, the romantic gesture turned into a life-threatening event for Mr Hu when the courier company mixed up the address with another delivery.
The 30-minute wait turned into a three-hour ordeal for Mr Hu.
The material of the box was reportedly too thick for him to make any breathing holes while inside and he did not want to spoil the surprise by calling for attention.
When the box arrived at Li Wang's place, his friend was poised to record the event.
However, they found Mr Hu unconscious and looking pale upon opening the package.
Subsequently, paramedics were called over to her apartment to revive him.
He admitted, "I didn't realise it would take so long."
The courier company said they would not have accepted this delivery if they had known there was a person inside.
The spokesperson said that even for animals, a special container would be used so they can breathe properly.
The above is written entirely in prose (by you). Prose is not poetry or in anyway related to poetry. Simply put, prose is every day regular speech or writing.
If one looks long enough one can find idiocy. My idiocy showed through. Dear my idiocy, do not do that again. Idiocy said no. Thanks for pointing that out. Glad you were looking.
I can always count on you tee hee!
Uh oh. I have been negligent. (Actually, I have a sleep disorder that made me conk out directly after we checked up on our elderly neighbor.) I awakened at 0138 and proceeded to wash and dry the dishes, make some dog food, make garden-fresh salsa, fry some sweet potato chips (ate the entire batch), feed the cats and dog, walk the dog, work on the rock garden, listen to new audiobook, and now touch base with you! I apologize for my neglectfulness (sp?). Will now read a little, then browse through cookbooks ‘til slumber hits again.
Thanks for caring! Don’t worry. Wherever the Creator takes me, I’ll be watching y’all! (And, hopefully, protecting.) :)
“Sue is short for Elizabeth.” Is that where you got the sue somebody if you break a tooth on a cream puff? Saints protect us. Let us call a moratorium on all but not limited to the suing, the elizabething, the teeth, the cream puffs, the mints, the possums....
Youse are great blessings!

Time to sort music for Mass. I found two songs related to today’s lectionary, but I still need two more.
Not well. But some nights, it goes like that. I will have five or six bad nights and two or three nights when I wake up to find I have slept five hours without waking. BONUS!
