1) I ran myself over with my own car & lived to tell about it. (Yes, this is true!!)

Um... I'd like to hear the story on this one!

Are you ambidexterous???

[Dianechef 3]

Hi Kare! This is quite a story. And one that is told over & over again at our family get-togethers.

Basically, my car wouldn't go in reverse. I only needed to go a few feet so that I could back out. I figured I would just get out of the car & pull it towards me. So, with the door open, I stood on the ground at the drivers side & pulled the car while holding on to the door & the steering wheel. (Yes, it's a very stupid thing to do.....I get it know!!!!!!!) The car jumped into reverse, knocked me down & ran me over. The car continued to drive itself across the parking lot while I lay on the ground. Somebody saw me & called 911.

The police, fire deparment, ambulance, & everyone came to my rescue. The found me lying on the ground in the middle of the parking lot with out a car even remotely close. After figuring out where my car ended up, the first guy asked me - Who's car was it that hit you? I answered - "MINE" They then asked - "Who was the driver?" In a very timid voice I said -"That was ME!"

I had all the paramedics in stitches because they couldn't believe I had actually ran myself over with my own car!!!

By the way, the car ran over my leg & ankle. My fat legs protected my leg, but I broke my ankle in several places.

Once they took me to the hospital the first thing the nurse asked was - "What happened?" The paramedics could hardly keep contain themselves.

This was one of the most hilariously, painful ordeals I have ever been in. :confused:

6. Robert Deniro (Said to call him Bobby and was a very nice person)

This one wipes out my entire list.

LOL, He came to visit Raul Julia in the hospital and I didn't recognize him. Who expects DeNiro to be walking down the hall in an ICU at 1 AM? I asked him if I could help him and he said, "It's me, Bobby." I said "Uh, ok, but can I help you? Visiting hours are over."

He kinda smiled to himself and then whispered, "Robert DeNiro?" I felt like a complete ass and apologized but he was very nice and told me to call him Bobby. After his visit with Raul Julia (who was admitted under another name), he came and chatted with the staff for about 15 minutes and then left... very normal person but shorter than I imagined.

My grandfather ran himself over too. He didn't break anything, but he was lucky...

And Funny, I wasn't saying that you shouldn't have posted everything you did, it was just a confusion on my part. My "last few years" haven't even been weird, at least not for me.

... For instance, I was not killed by Lenard Lake nor his buddy Charles Ng. (here's the long story... http://www.crimelibrary.com/serial_killers/predators/ng/call_1.html) Sure, lots of people were not killed by them, but I have to wonder how many people did Lenard invite to his cabin who didn't go? As soon as he touched me, as he put his hand on the small of my back, I knew there was something terribly, terribly wrong with this man, and I was in great danger.

Vines ~ You gave me chills. I remember reading about in your post awhile back. Just amazing & scary. So glad you are here to bless us with your presence. :biggrin1:

Diane ~ That has got to be the funniest story I've ever read. Glad your OK too.

*shudders* Good grief, Vines. I remember you telling this story some time ago and it still gives me chills. Good thing your intuition was working that day!

I was run over by a truck once, but it wasn't my truck and I wasn't driving. I was laying beside my ex boyfriend out on the lawn at a big party. Several of us had parked our vehicles on the lawn (big lawn). My ex's current girlfriend was mad because she couldn't find him and she got a friend to drive her to town to look for him. They jumped in the truck, and backed up right over my legs just above my knees. When everyone saw what was happening and I started yelling, the driver threw it into drive and punched it. Luckily he didn't have positraction and the tire that wasn't on my legs was the one that spun. It was a long time before I walked again, but I'm grateful that tire was 3 inches ABOVE my knees!

7. wrote an awful romance novel when i was nine. still have a copy of it (all 250 pages) tucked safely away in a garfield trapper-keeper in my closet. what did i know of romance back then? hell...what do i know of romance now?

9. lived in a haunted house.

10. learned how to float and tape drywall when i was sixteen years old.

11. myself and my companions got sloppily drunk in las vegas, proceeded to get kicked out of three different casinos (one for trying to correct the grammar on the marquis) and ended up heckling the seigfried and roy sign on the strip. still not quite sure why...
