Hey Edie... You really blew it! When falling in a mall that has heavy foot traffic, you are s'posed to yell "He pushed me, HE PUSHED MEEEE!!, and while ya are laying there surrounded by people, ya must reinforce that statement by pointing at one of the passerbys and say "It was HIM!! HE pushed me... YOU all saw it didn't ya?" And you can pretty well expect that half the crowd will nod in agreement and claim that THEY saw him push you, too! THEN you ask for a volunteer to go and phone your lawyer, claiming your injuries prevent you from calling. And while the volunteer calls your attorney, YOU work the crowd getting the names and phone numbers of those "witnesses" who agreed that they had seen you being pushed. Uhhhhh... feel free to make a settlement on the spot if ya can! <smirk> Barb Mallut [log in to unmask] -----Original Message----- From: Edie Luther. <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] <[log in to unmask]> Date: Friday, April 07, 2000 3:40 PM Subject: Re: Had any "good" falls lately? >In a message dated 4/7/2000 7:25:03 AM Central Daylight Time, >[log in to unmask] writes: > ><< > the straight away...... > >> >George - I seem to like falling in front an audience.
