Clever Lois, Creative writing, oh yes. Grandfather murdered by neighbor for playing pratical joke. Lets see, how can I tidy that one up? Practical joke backfires ! (in lieu of pratical joke fires gun). Comedian to the very end. Sense of humor makes life worth living. Any of these do the job? True story on my sister. She was on her way to work at the hospital one morning when her brakes went out. She only lived a short distance from the hospital and it was early. She made it without incident to the parking lot. Upon arrival, she was unable to park the car. She decided since she only had a dab of gasoline in the car, she would just drive around and around in the parking lot until she ran out of gasoline. Well, other employees started arriving and began to form a crowd in the parking lot watching Linda drive around and around. She is the friendly sort tho-she waved at them each time she passed by. Eventually one of the doctors stepped away from the crowd and hollered at her, "Linda, take the key out of the ignition. We need to get back to work." Where upon, she removed the key and went inside to work. Not going to mention where she lives. Could cause a panic. Does she qualify for a "trendy" sister? Or does she qualify as a "roving hospital employee"? Or "great people go in large circles"? ____ Marsil in the Land of UFO's, Aliens, and weather balloons.
