I heard a scream so I ran toward my car.

I heard a scream so I ran toward my car. I did not get to it before

my lower back just gave out! Damn that sciatic nerve problem I got from the freak merry go round accident years ago! Not now! As I pondered this while looking down, the screams gre

w softer and softer until finally:dead silence. Well, that was that. I held my aching back with both hands on my hips & waddled away. Boy, I sure had a hankering for some pancakes!

I was making my way towards the IHOP entrance when a Frisbee flashed in my peripheral. I shot an arm out, caught the toy, tweaked a muscle, slipped a disk, and went down in a heap.

I hit my head hard on the bench and when I came to, the only thought I had was I really need pancakes.

So I quickly rushed to the nearest IHOP and ordered the unlimited pancake meal. I probably ate 20 pancakes because they were so delicious.

Now what was I supposed to do. I already ordered my food and they were practically finished with it. Was I going to go to jail? Should I just leave? I reversed my position & walked

out of the door.

They ran as fast as they could and almost made it to Canada before the sun was up. They had only the clothes on their backs and the feet on their shoes. Any lots of chocolate.
