My new role model

I want to be just like this lady when I grow up: Woman, 70, hits back at carjacker

I can't decide which is my favorite quote. It's either this one: "He kept telling me that he was going to kill me, and that he had a gun in his pants," Haliday said from her hospital bed, hair styled and nails manicured. "I told him, 'You can't reach it. Your pants are at your ankles.' "

Or this: "I can't believe how hard it is to break somebody's neck," she said. "I just kept choking him until he couldn't talk. I thought he'd at least faint."

Actually, I think I'm going with this: "He swerved one time and the door slammed shut and then he was mine."

I liked this line "I hope he's at least 21 so he had a chance to enjoy his life some, before he goes to jail," she said. "You just can't do this kind of thing to people. Not on my watch anyway."

That is awesome.

Sounds like something my grandmother would have done if she had ever gotten her license.

She reminds me of my Grandmother before she died. Full of spirit and a love of life.

Or this: "I can't believe how hard it is to break somebody's neck," she said. "I just kept choking him until he couldn't talk. I thought he'd at least faint."

berkeley yeah. Grandma's got it right. The only thing cooler would've been if she killed the mother berkeleyer with her bare hands.

I was flipping through the channels the other night, and caught the tail end of a COPS episode.

Guy walks up to car at a traffic light, points gun at driver's head, tries to take car. Driver grabs gun, beats suspect repeatedly about the face with it. Driver grabs suspect by shirt neck, drags scumbag to a pay phone a half a block away, calls cops, waits.

HA HA HA! This woman is now my hero. I'd be lucky if I thought of that line a whole week later.

SLAPP !! Take that punkass, go tell your buddies in the Big House how a 70 year old woman kicked your ass.

Now go put your makeup on beowch.

Oh yeahhhh, somethin' tells me he's not gonna fare so well in prison.

"I told him, 'You can't reach it. Your pants are at your ankles.' "

Got to remember that one.

I would say dem boyz was guilty of profiling. Old woman in a minivan= easy money.

Way to go. Good for you.

This lady is AMAZING!

Brazilian Jujitsu FTW

You left out this fine quote:

"I hope he's at least 21 so he had a chance to enjoy his life some, before he goes to jail," she said. "You just can't do this kind of thing to people. Not on my watch anyway."

Awesome.

Kim was her nurse today.

"Am I going to let this guy steal my car? berkeley no!"
