Living on the Lamb!
« on: March 11, 2011, 10:45:54 AM »
So- I've been chuckling to myself all morning about this. Thought I would share this with you all.

  I was dropping my eldest son off at school when I was stopped by his teacher who introduced me to the new teachers aide. After listening to me speak for a minute, the aide had a big smile on her face and asked, " Are you the American here on the Witness Protection Program?".........

.............."Um... Excuse Me?"

  His teacher looked so embarrassed, and admitted that when I first enrolled my son there was a rumor that the reason I was here was because I was running from the law. Later, after getting to know me a bit-   I guess it was decided I couldn't be running from the law, it must be the Witness Protection Program.

 Nope. Sorry, just boring old family reasons.  I'm just replaying the whole exchange over in my mind, and if I had been in protective custody or something- that lady would have totally just blown my cover!! :D
We stole countries with the cunning use of flags. Just sail around the world and stick a flag in. "I claim India for Britain!" They're going "You can't claim us, we live here! Five hundred million of us!" "Do you have a flag …? "What? We don't need a flag, this is our home, you bastards" "No flag, No Country, You can't have one! Those are the rules... that I just made up!...and I'm backing it up with this gun, that was lent to me from the National Rifle Association."

I think that is awesome - they moved you up on how much they think of you from law to being protected by the law!
haha

I guess that does say something about my character. I could just be a ex mob wife trying to escape a bad situation. Sounds like something I would be involved in. ;)

I'll take it to the grave- which after the Aide spilled the beans could be any day now!
