Amazing Story of Man and Elephant
In 1988, Steve Jennings was on vacation in Australia after graduating from South-eastern University. During a hike through the Outback, he came across a young elephant standing with one leg raised in the air as if it was in pain.
The elephant seemed distressed, so Steve approached it very carefully. He got down on one knee and inspected the elephant's foot and found a large piece of wood deeply embedded in it. As carefully and as gently as he could, Steve worked the wood out with his hunting knife, after which the elephant gingerly put down its foot.
The elephant turned to face the man and, with a rather curious look on its face, stared at him for several tense moments. Steve stood frozen, thinking of nothing else but being trampled. Eventually the elephant trumpeted loudly, turned, and walked away. Steve never forgot that elephant or the events of that day.
Twenty years later, Steve was walking through the Atlanta Zoo with his teenaged son. As they approached the elephant enclosure, one of the creatures turned and walked over to near where Steve and his son Nicolas were standing. The large elephant stared at Steve, lifted its front foot off the ground, and then put it down. The elephant did that several times then trumpeted loudly, all the while staring at the man.
Remembering the encounter in 1988, Steve couldn't help wondering if this was the same elephant. Steve summoned up his courage, climbed over the railing and made his way into the enclosure. He walked right up to the elephant and stared back in wonder.
The elephant trumpeted again, wrapped its trunk around one of Steve's legs and slammed his dumb ass against the railing, killing him instantly.
Probably wasn't the same elephant.

Family of Chuck Norris?
The following was reported as a true story . . . .
Returning from a shopping trip, an elderly lady found four men about to drive off in her car. She dropped her shopping bags and pulled out a gun, then screamed at the top of her voice, ‘I have a gun and know how to use it – get out of the car, you scumbags!’
The men jumped out of the car and ran for their lives, while the old lady loaded her bags and got into the driver’s seat. Still shaken by the incident she had trouble getting the key into the ignition and after a few tries she suddenly realized why! It was not her car – her own car she found a few parking spaces further on.
Horrified at her terrible mistake she drove to the police station and confessed all. The Desk Sergeant fell about laughing and pointed to the other end of the counter. There stood four pale, shaken men who were busy reporting a car-jacking by a mad elderly woman, less than 5ft tall, with curly white hair, wearing glasses and carrying a large handgun.
No charges were filed.
