Believe It or Not!

Steve Egner

Driving home after a long bike ride last Sunday, I turned onto my street, just a couple of blocks from my home. Clad only in lycra bike shorts and jersey, I had my window down, my shades on, and a nice endorphin buzz from a great outing.

Without warning, a large, dense, golf ball sized pine cone from one of our towering neighborhood evergreens careened through my window like a meteor, and nailed me right on my left testicle. I nearly crashed my rig. Lycra offers scant protection.

Believe It or Not!

Anything weird happen to you lately?

Lehaa

Ow.

No nothing weird happened lately that I can think of, will think about it.

Believe it or not, I was visiting friends for dinner and afterward they suggested I go visit their grown daughter and son-in-law not far away. As I had just parked a few doors down from their home and got out of the car here comes the son-in-law down the street. I waved but he didn't notice me and he was about to drive on by without even stopping. There was no way I was going to let that happen so I said to myself, 'hey, maybe I can get his attention with this pine cone'. Jst2laws

Last week, I was at work (we have four stores). I called one of the other locations, and the boss said, "oh, there is someone here who is looking for you, I'll put him on."

It was an exJW I had grown up with. I have run into him twice in the past 28 years. He knew I worked there in the past, etc. So, he is getting married in two weeks, and I received my invitation in the mail today!

Isn't that great? Oh, and his bride-to-be is an exJW whose family I knew well. ;)

Strange how I just happened to call the other store at that exact moment ... kismet, thinks this one ...

... or, as I like to say, "Power of Kreskin" ...

Ow.

My sentiments exactly. Not exactly, however, the language I used at the time.

jst2laws LMAO. Steve, you have my complete attention now (covering my private parts).

Now this is weird..........

The other night I had climbed a towering pine tree when suddenly my left testicle dropped out nailing a pine cone down below!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

talesin I was still muttering in disbelief over the incredible coincidence of my brush with jst2laws when your experience popped up.

So many cosmic links, so little time...

Mac So should we call you Lefty now, in honor of your departed testicle, or Deadeye Dick, in recognition of your sharpshooter's accuracy?

Steve

Mac

Just call me Poncho...

"And all the tears that Poncho cried...

turned to dust when Lefty died"

mac, Willie or won't he class
