BLACK ROBBERS (A True Story)



On a recent weekend in Atlantic City, a woman won a bucketful of quarters at a slot machine.




She took a break from the slots for dinner with her husband in the hotel dining room. But first she wanted to stash the quarters in her room. 'I'll be right back and we'll go to eat' she told her husband and carried the coin-laden bucket to the elevator.




As she was about to walk into the elevator she noticed two men already aboard. Both were black. One of them was very tall and had an intimidating figure. The woman froze. Her first thought was: 'These two are going to rob me.'




Her next thought was: 'Don't be a bigot, they look like perfectly nice gentlemen.' But racial stereotypes are powerful, and fear immobilized her.




Avoiding eye contact, she turned around stiffly and faced the elevator doors as they closed.




A second passed, and then another second, and then another. Her fear increased! The elevator didn't move. Panic consumed her.

'My God' she thought, I'm trapped and about to be robbed!




Her heart plummeted. Perspiration poured from every pore.




Then one of the men said, 'Hit the floor.'




Instinct told her to do what they told her.




The bucket of quarters flew upwards as she threw out her arms and collapsed on the elevator floor. A shower of coins rained down on her.




'Take my money and spare me', she prayed.




More seconds passed. She heard one of the men say politely, 'Ma'am, if you'll just tell us what floor you're going to, we'll push the button.'




The one who said it had a little trouble getting the words out. He was trying mightily to hold in a belly laugh. The woman lifted her head and looked up at the two men. They reached down to help her up.




Confused, she struggled to her feet. 'When I told my friend here to hit the floor,' said the average sized one, I meant that he should hit the elevator button for our floor. I didn't mean for you to hit the floor, ma'am.

He spoke genially. He bit his lip. It was obvious he was having a hard time not laughing.




The woman thought: 'My God, what a spectacle I've made of myself.'




She was too humiliated to speak. The three of them gathered up the strewn quarters and refilled her bucket.




When the elevator arrived at her floor they then insisted on walking her to her room. She seemed a little unsteady on her feet, and they were afraid she might not make it down the corridor.




At her door they bid her a good evening.




As she slipped into her room she could hear them roaring with laughter as they walked back to the elevator.




The woman brushed herself off. She pulled herself together and went downstairs for dinner with her husband.




The next morning flowers were delivered to her room; a dozen roses.




Attached to EACH rose was a crisp one hundred-dollar bill.




The card said: 'Thanks for the best laugh we've had in years.

True story. In 1968 I had to go downtown to see an executive in a high rise building for a few minutes. I was holding my 18 month old daughter with her facing over my shoulder as we got on the elevator. There was a Black lawyer, executive or some such in his three piece suit and $100.00 briefcase standing in the back of the elevator. My daughter's head kept twisting back and forth as kids will do when they first see something curious. This went on while we went up about 10 floors. I was getting pretty anxious knowing that my daughter said whatever was on her mind.

The guy got off before us and as he passed, sure enough my daughter had to open her mouth. She said, "Your pretty." He turned and smiled. she made his day and I quit sweating bullets.

He was simply "incrapulous"!

crapulous




\KRAP-yuh-luhs\
adjective
1. given to or characterized by gross excess in drinking or eating.
2. suffering from or due to such excess.
Quotes
Hastily running across the court to his own rooms, he groped... See full quote
-- Frederic W. Farrar, Julian Home: A Tale of College Life, 1866
Origin
Crapulous came to English in the mid-1500s from the Late Latin crāpulōsus.

So what would "incrapulous" mean?

If that was 300 winmag...

They don't recoil but they kind of "jump". If her eye is on the scope, it will hurt. But not like a firearm.

If that was a remington 700 in 300 WINMAG, she would be lucky to not be having family pick parts of her brain off the scope...

Being a single pump air gun, it's not likely to do much at all...

I had the same problem earlier, so I just used www.imgur.com to upload and post my pictures. It is very easy to use. It does have I believe a 2meg upload limit for free non paying people to use.

Here is another true little kid story.

I have a friend from Barrie Ontario. She absolutely loved Curious George.

She gave birth to a boy. Before he was born, she did his bedroom in a Curious George motif. Wall paper, bedding, pictures etc. The entire 9 yards.

As he was getting older, she read the Curious George books to him and they watched videos and cartoons together.

One day she had him out shopping. They happened to be beside a Negro lady and her young son.

Logan said, "Look Mom". And when she looked around, Logan exclaimed and pointed at the young boy, "Monkey".

Pretty embarrassing eh, and even if she could have tried, how do you apologize and explain how that one came out of your son's mouth.
