Ok. I have a story. SO. It was my USY Senior Fairwell/Installations. (for those of you who do not know what USY is go to http://www.usy.org ) ANYWAYS, so it was a bright and sunny day, about 75 outside. We go in the buliding start the ceremony and then it started to rain. Very badly. Just as the ceremony was ending and people were going home.
As the first peroson was heading out the door, the torando sirens went off. So the Rabbis rushed everyone into the downstairs of the synagouge. The problem is that my 87 year old grandfather was in a wheelchair. So naturally we put him in the chairlift. We started it up and half way down it got stuck, shut off and broke down. This is all while it is storming AND torando sirens are going off.
We could not get the doors open to even lift him out. 20 minuntes go by. No luck, my poor grandfather who has dimensia is just sitting there stuck in a chairlift. We eventauly had to call 911. The fire department came and pryed the doors open, lifted him and his wheelchair out. (Thank you Columbus Fire Deparment) after he was out we went home, where the power was out.
Got him settled and continued to my house. Where we see a tree limb had fallen. The lights came on an hour later. If this day could not get anymore hetic, on my way home from lunch, this lady stopped very short in front of me, and I accendly tapped her car. Noticed I said tapped, and not hit. Stupid lady who happened to have a mercades-benz, HAD to call the police, so I got a $160.00 ticket. THERE WAS NOT A SINGLE DENT ON HER CAR! And this lady also lives in my neighboor hood. So that was my day. Just thought I would share.
