Yesterday I was buying a large bag of Purina dog chow for Daisy, my wonder dog, at Woolworth and was in the check out line. A woman behind me asked if I had a dog What did she think I had, an elephant? So since I'm retired, with little to do, on impulse, I told her that no, I didn't have a dog, and that I was starting the Purina Diet again. I probably shouldn't, I continued, because I'd ended up in the hospital last time. I awoke in an intensive care ward with tubes coming out of most of my orifices and IVs in both arms. However, I did lose 40 pounds on the diet, so I was giving it another go.
I told her that it was essentially a perfect diet and that the way that it works is you load your pockets with Purina nuggets and simply eat one or two every time you feel hungry. The food is nutritionally complete and I needed to lose a few more pounds. (I have to mention here that practically everyone in t he line was, by now, enthralled with my story.)
Horrified, this woman asked if I ended up in intensive care because I'd been poisoned by the dog food. I told her no, it happened because I stepped off a curb to sniff an Afghans behind and a car hit both of us.
I thought the guy behind her was going to have a heart attack he was laughing so hard!

lol thats cruel lol funny but cruel. Sounds like something B/F would do Just after B/F & I were together, we were at Woolies (must be the place for it!!) and in the freezer section where the pet food was kept are those long sausages of dog food. Well he proceeded to take one from the freezer and errr....ummm.... "humped" the freezer with a few onlookers watching . Sooooooooo embarrassing Another time he lined the freezer (what is it with freezers??!) with little toy ants and sat back to watch people grab a tray of meat only to jump back in horror and drop the meat!!!! He was kept entertained for sometime. Do men ever grow up??? lol Tasha

Oh and just while we are on the topic of telling stories to gullible people, we were at australia zoo one day and these american tourists asked my mum how the wombat got its name. She told them that they were originally giant bats but the aboriginals would whack their wings off so they could get them easier and they stick they used to crack the wings off with was called a Wom...they eventually stayed without wings and that is why they are called Wombats...THEY BELIEVED HER HAHAHAHA!!
Also my friend went to america and told them she rides kangaroos to the beach in the mornings and we have a animal called a kangaoala which is a cross between a kangaroo and a koala and they are the designer pets over here for the moment...oh so gullible!
