Story

Our neighbor Sarah stopped me tonight as I was bringing in groceries. She had a story to tell me.

I guess, last week sometime, Sarah heard a fight on the street. She looked out the window and saw two girls arguing. Then, suddenly, one ran up on to our front porch. She grabbed our wood Ikea plant stand and ran off our porch.

She then started to beat the other girl with it!

Sarah called the police. She started with the assault that was happening outside of our house. The police were not concerned.

Then she mentioned the stolen plant stand. The police were much more interested in that. Nice priorities.

Well, the plant stand is gone, I'm sure we will never see it again. Of course, I have three more of them, so I'm okay with that. I just wish I could have seen someone being beaten by it...

Aack, that's so horrible. I can't imagine beating anyone much less with a piece of furniture. People need to chill...
