Hungarian? It's a lovely name and the spelling seems right.


;-)

I dropped 7 letters off my last name about 20 years ago. My whole family discussed it since the day I was born - and when it came to finally do it - I was the only one who went for it.

So, my last name is different then the rest of my family.

Weird, huh!?

Nothing would make winter more fun (and exciting) than a bunch of senior citizens on roller blades!

So, was the driver booked?

Never mind. Says here she was booked, printed and bound over for trial. Since the the jail is overcrowed, they picked up her temporary accommodations at a table of con-tents.



DUCK, DUCK, you GOOSE! Book 'er, Danno.

The woman must have hit a Bar before she hit the Barnes and Noble.

(EVERYBODY SING ALONG NOW): Put in a parking lot.

The bad news is that the car came to rest on top of an author who was signing copies of his number one bestseller, "How I Beat Murphy's Law."

Did that woman have a Title to her car? If she had rammed into the poetry section of the bookstore we could have said this was "poetic justice", but I heard she came dang close to slamming into the "Food" section which would have been a recipe for disaster.

I have it on author-ity that this woman was working under hardcover. This incident may not have happened if she wasn't on her cell phone returning a page.

Hey, not bad! :-)

Asked what finally stopped the car's forward momentum, the head detective said, "It's a mystery."

Aisle say that the detective also lifted his index finger and read her her writes, chapter and verse. ;)

We all know what would've happened if this had been an SUV. But now we have runaway station wagons.

"I've cataLOGGED you!"


Catalogged, eh? You're quite the Card! But are you referring to felines or forestry? That which meows, or that which hath bark?

Or that which mooeth....

Where can you go to get away from the world where you'll be safe? You can't even go to a bookstore cafe to relax in safety.

Just stay away from the "nonfiction" section lest you get tired. ;)

The suspense is killing me and dinner is waiting. This will be my last word on this subject.

Apparently her bumper got hooked on phonics. I heard there was total science in the store and readers described her as an Amazon of a woman. Will this woman be sentenced, or will she just wordlessly walk away?

The police said the driver was not injured in the accident but one of her dogs is in a comma. The driver was heard to say that she hopes to write this wrong and she will pay her dues.
