92-year-old angered at kiss refusal
A 92-year-old Florida woman was so upset when a man refused to kiss her that she shot into his house.
That's a little drastic, don't you think?
It is the first I've heard of this new and unusual senior adult parlor game of "Kiss Me or I Will Shoot You."
Surely there has to be a better, safer way of breaking the ice and getting acquainted.
The kind of weapon it was is not mentioned, but I have it on good authority that either a pistol or a rifle will get it done and make the victim wish he had done whatever was asked of him.
Still, you have to admire the strength and bravery of the man who stood strong and said, "I will not kiss her!"
And what's more, he really made her shooting mad when he added insult to injury by saying, "I won't even pucker!"
Of course, at that advanced age, there would be facial wrinkles, but there are other things with which we are familiar that have wrinkles. For example, there are prunes. And although they may not be as old, there are wrinkles and many do not mind smacking on them.
I have not seen a picture of the lady who wants to be kissed, but I do think there are men who might decide that kissing her would be better than being shot.
