Well i do have a few, but one of my favourites happened when i was in primary school. I was walking home with my sister and suddenly we see this cow charging down the road! Now you can imagine we were like,'uh oh!'. Next thing you know the cow starts coming closer to us! And this next part I'll never forget, priceless (!), my sister being o so brave, jumps in BEHIND me!! lol! Luckily the cow didn't slam into us, but I wouldn't want her watching my back ever again! lol!

I think one of the most amusing things that occurred that I participated in happened while I was still trucking across the country. There was a snow storm in Wyoming, the roads between Rawlins and Laramie were closed. I spent the night in a truckstop in Rawlins and deciding to have breakfast the next morning I went in. Hundreds of trucks and their drivers were waiting on the roads to open, one driver had his wife and young daughter with him. This little girl was having a bit of a problem with boredom and she was hungry. The wait staff was extremely busy and hadn't gotten around to taking their order yet. So I gathered up some fruit off the breakfast bar and offered it to her, with the permission of her parents. I can't remember exactly what she said but it prompted me to remove my dentures, pretending they were going to bite her. She looked at me astonished, the entire restaurant got so very quite, she yelled out. Mommy! Look that lady has teeth that run away! Later this same little girl decided she was going to leave her parents and spend a couple years with me. Teach me to offer to play with other people's kids.

No I gladly sent her on her way with her parents later that day. On a good note, that little girl sent me copies of her report cards and yearly pictures for the last 8 years. I suppose I will get a graduation invitation one of these days...don't think this time I'll take out my teeth.

the wierdest thing that ever happened to me was a premonition. I woke from a vivid dream wher a fully loaded truck had run out of control through my village, as i watched it brike through a wall and fell on to its side in to a river. I remember looking at the church clock, it was 6.45 am. Usually i would be walking down this road to work, but after my dream i felt i would delay and go in later. I was shocked to hear when my wife told me a truck loaded with goods had indeed fallen in the river and distroyeed the shop i usually called in on my way to work, The time this happened was 6,45 am. I still think about this, im sure someone was watching over me

When my daughter was 3, we went fishing. My daughter caught a fish, which my sister let her hold. Needless to say, the fish fell to the ground and was flopping all over. She started trying to get it and it got back to the water and in both of them went. My sister is standing behind me screaming "jump in and get her!!" I did and she was ok. She was mad because she was swimming with the fishies. The other funny thing was I barely know how to swim and my sister had a lifesaving course. lol

I had a similar experience when i was doing my 10nth standard, i was wearing a red dress and one big cow with paintes horns suddenly came charging towards me and i ran for my life but suddenly i changed my direction and the cow ran over a park where fencing was there and i escaped with no harm, Its many years since this happened but yet its an unforgetful incident

when the cow that i mentioned escaped, there was a woman and she was standing with the car door open, and the cow whacked the door so she was momentarily wedged between the car door and frame..other girls i know had to jump over a wall and jump in behind a gate!

Once me and my mom were bike riding our way to my aunt's house. It was around 9 p.m. and the darkness had just fell upon. Me and my mom were chit chatting on our way there, cruising on our bicycles, when out of the bushes, came out a skunk!! Me and my mom pedalled so fast, my feet had to come off the pedals cuz it was going too fast, and were screaming and laughing at the same time!! It was hilarious!

I was out working in the yard, and I see this hole. Knowing that there are a lot of rattlesnakes around the area, I thought I'd try to flush whatever was in there out so I could bury the hole. Before pouring water on the mound of dirt over the hole, so that it soaked in and get too cold for the rattlesnake to stay in, my hand got too close to the entrance. A sharp pain came in my finger as I pulled it away. At the end of my finger was a muddy crow flapping and not letting go. I grabbed the bird by the feet and held him upsidown until his grip loosened enough for me to pull my finger out. I then took him to the wildlife shelter I volunteer at to make sure he wasn't hurt.
