Farmer Giles "It could only happen to me" thread caused me to wonder what embarrassing moments others suffered through.

ONE of mine happened when I was a taxi driver. I let my last fare off downtown a few blocks from our station, then proceeded on to my next fare. Some time later my dispatcher came on my radio to ask, "Hey hop, that last fare of your that you let out at (address). On a scale of one to ten, ten being a raving beauty, how would you rate her"? I blurted out, "Oh, 'bout a two", never thinking she could be standing in the taxi stand having convinced the dispatcher to ask me that over the radio.

For about a second or two I heard some of the most foul words screamed over my radio, until the dispatcher could snatch away the mike from an insanely angry woman. Other drivers heard the exchange on their radios. So did people around town with scanners on. Needless to say, I got a lot of ribbing over it. Afterward I felt bad for the woman and wish I could take it back.

So, how 'bout the rest of you?

-took my first helicopter ride with the X, insisted sitting besides the pilot as I was petrified.......



we were over Niagara Falls and it stopped...........I was frantic, though we were stuck in park!

asked the pilot what was going on, he said, relax, were just hovering!

totally totally forgot they hover.:yh_blush

here is one i posted a couple of years ago :o



ever had one of those days i have and its today started badly and then it fell away

first i woke up banging hang over then i went to car boot sale with my step

daughter we buy a few bits i buy a piece of keep fit equipment its heavy i leave it at the stall and tell the guy I'll pick it up later only when i go to pick it up i cant remember what the guy looks like or where the stall is doh i leave for home without it

i get to the car park some moron has dented the wing of my car no name phone number left doh doh

my daughter then wants to go swimming ok i say reluctantly for i would rather polish my eyes with a cheese grater than go swimming

we take her friend with us they go get changed i go to put my shorts on I've brung my step sons shorts they so small i manage to squeeze into them some how i look down the term elephant in catapult comes to mind i look totally ridiculous the girls have gone i have no option but to go in the pool

i get to the pool the girls look at me and laugh one says i look like patrick off of sponge bob square pants

i figure if i stay underwater i'll be fine but oh no after an hour the girls are hungry i have to get out i walk out to the cafe bit we find a table i have a towel i put it round my waist the plastic chair is freezing i put half the towel on the chair half covering my flab i go to order the food to my horror i have left the towel on the chair there are about 60 people there no one has noticed me just at that moment the buzzer you order your food with jams full on, every one but every one is looking at this fat bald guy wearing these kids shorts they all crack up i slither back to my table just as i get there in my bare feet my daughter sits down the sharp edge of the plastic chair leg digs deep into my naked foot i holler like tom the cat off of tom and Jerry everyone looks up people are nearing hysteria now

i give my daughter my towel she is cold i get back to the male changing room really deflated i go into the cubicle leaving the door open its all male i'm standing up having a pee i finish i go to pull up my shorts if i thought they were tight before now they are wet i cant pull them up i pull as hard as i can with all my might i worried the cloth will rip but no my hand slips off the wet cloth my fist hits me full force under the chin i go flying backwards through the half open door with my shorts just above my knees landing on my back naked in front of all the dads with my bits on full show they all burst out laughing a dad lends me a towel i slink back to the locker get dressed my humiliation is complete

Jimbo, it's a talent, that's all I can say.

Don't ever stop. I've been laughing so hard it's taken me several minutes to be able to type again.

I like that motto you put in your siggy line cuz it's true:)

Please do understand that when I said I'd been laughing, it wasn't at you. You did everything for the most right reasons. And I know that none of this will stop you from doing it the next time...

I respect that. A lot. :-6
