Omigod... these stories... they're both horrible and hilarious! Our youthful humiliations, I'm told, are part of carving our character, so it's not surprising that you are the amazing character you are after enduring these events! Great, cinematic telling of the tales, Beth; made me grin a bunch!

Thanks Lorraine. Those memories make me smile, sorta. No, they make me smile.

I felt like I was in the audience gasping for air from laughing while reading the succession of falls along with your commentary !

It is an incredible story.

Thank you for providing me with the best laughs I have had in awhile.

I think it was one of the more contrast-y moments of my life. High highs, BOOM! But hey, if you can’t laugh at things like this, they’ll bury you. I’m glad you got a kick out of it!

Ha! I didn’t know that happened to her! Thanks for telling me that. One definitely finds out what one is made of in moments like that - do you quit or stick it out to the bitter end? And the amazing thing is, YOU’LL NEVER KNOW until something like that happens.

Thanks for the kudos, I really appreciate that!
