LOL, LOL...YEAH! I loved this story...Lee Meriwether (Miss America 1955) emailed this a few days ago....Isn't this lady something? Smart & Fast, still!!
I loved how she said she was just trying to live a "guiet life" and that it was "one thing after another"...! Don't you wonder what else happened? I have to go back and look at Lee's email cause I think that something else was included! If it was there, I'll let you know.
Loved this story when I read it!
xo
I think she's my hero!
She was my hero and I didn't even know about her being Miss America once.
I saw her a couple of times on the TV news but I sure missed the Miss America thing.
Mrs. Jim knew! She is trained (or is it her gift?) to be people observant about people, she is a retired social worker.

Rachel, you are right about the speedometer, it is my '98 Mustang.

YEEEE-HAWWWWW! What a woman! :)
She still looks very good for her age, and did what she had to do because she had a gun. I am always amazed that everybody seems to run around with a gun in the States. In Belgium nobody is allowed to buy a gun only policemen have one.
I would have loved to see their faces when she shot their tires out.TEEHEE!!!!
Oh migosh...what a great morning at the computer...my cereal and funny stories!!!!!
I loved this one Rachel. A true Pistol Packin Momma.
Good for her. Don't mess with an old Kentucky broad!

Anyone that can balance their walker and then use a .38-caliber pistol to shoot out car tires has my respect!

It's nice to see someone getting it right!
Don't you just adore this story! I want to be like that when I'm her age.
Maybe she could move in next door to me....I wouldn't mind having her for my neighbor. Cute story.
I find it funny how everyone praises what she did but then complain that the gun laws are too lax.
Just a note to all the gun haters out there... If there were more people like her in the world some of these college shootings might end a bit sooner and with less casualties. Just a thought.
Hi Rachel:-) I'm back from my trip and trying to play catch up with everyone! Oh wow, now that's what you call a feisty former Miss America! lol I hadn't read this article before....good for her, it will make those thieves think twice before messing around with her again! hehe xoxo
I heard this story on the news.
Go, old girl, GO!!!!
That's a "Kentucky Gal" for ya!
:)
A very courageous woman! I agree with Lucy, would be great having her for my neighbor.
