Hubby has the worst luck with driving and being assulted - once he actually had a gun pointed at him! :eek: :eek:
Today, he had my daughter, her boyfriend, and her best friend in the car leaving the mall parking lot. There was another car leaving the mall and it cut hubby off. He beeped a short little beep as if to say "hey! you almost hit me!" Then at the next light, the same car purposefully cut them off again. This time, hubby rolled down the windows and said "Hey, what do you think you're doing?" The guy shot back some choice phrases, along the lines of him being fat and his wife (that would be me!) sleeping with his mama. :rolleyes:
Hubby just went along with the phrases the guy screamed at him, hubby just sat there and said "yes, uh-huh, right" etc. which must have annoyed the guy more than if he shot some choice words back. He's learned a lot in the past few years that you don't shoot back with equally stupid words, you just wave politely at them and roll your eyes. Anyway, at the next light, the guy pulls alongside of them and gets pout of his car, as does his buddy. Since the weather here today is almost 60, he had the windows cracked a bit... enough so that the guy came uop and slapped my daughter's boyfriend in the back of the head and a missed punch at hubby. :eek: :eek:
They got the license plate number and called 911; the police want him to come in and file a report. Considering that tonight is New Year's Eve and we have a lot ot do today, he couldn't today, but will be doing so tomorrow. Especially since the guy hit my daughter's boyfriend. They are filing charges of verbal and physical assult. (wasn't it less than a month ago hubby filed police charges of physical assult after a strudent punched him?!) He says those two guys were laughing thinking they were such tough guys, so he knows they'll just LOVE the New Years' gift that he's giving them: a nice new police record.
