The owner of the other car gets out (another parent) and thanks him for hitting her car. When he looks shocked she explains that she had just finished telling her kids that if they didn't behave they were going to cause her to have an accident. He looks across to her car and there are her children in the back, sitting perfectly straight and well behaved.<BR/><BR/>That is just one of the many fun little anecdotes he shares.Charlene Martelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08780533933122108482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5343757567267889654.post-74473296496991844812007-12-09T09:30:00.000-05:002007-12-09T09:30:00.000-05:00Sounds like a good read.
