The Price Is Right Spin GIF by As The Bunny Hops


I couldn't sleep last night as I pondered my best reef related story. I considered telling the story about the couple who were touring America. They hit a cat on the highway, stopped to render aid but quickly realized that the beautiful creature had expired from the injuries. Still, they felt bad and didn't want to leave the carcass in the road and so the wife emptied a Macy's bag she had from her New York shopping day and he scooped up the battered animal into the bag and they place it in the trunk. They drove in silence for many miles but eventually they decided to stop to grab a bite to eat along the way. They stopped at a Denny's, or a Perkin's(?), or one of those ubiquitous roadside chain dinners and the husband decided to take the cat out of the hot trunk and placed the bag in the shade by the back tire while they were eating. They used the facilities (everyone stops to grab a "bite" when they feel the bite) and then sat down to order. The wife observes an older woman coming into the restaurant with a Macy's bag in her hand and watches her get seated just a few seats away from the couple. She nudges her husband and whispers "Look at that!" to him. He turns to see the woman set the bag down on the seat next to her and she plops down to order a meal. The couple isn't sure what to do at this point? Should they confront the woman and accuse her of stealing their bag, Just to warn her? While they pondered the situation, the single woman was apparently wondering what treasure might be in the bag she had found? She picked up the bag and peered inside and passed out!
If you have read this far you havve to be wondering; "Is this a true story?" On my mothers grave, my aunt told us this story and she is still alive to tell you that this all really happend.
The restaurant staff sprang into action and called 911, or maybe the local paramedics? It was a long time ago, but whatever, however, the ambulance, fire department, and police all came to deal with the passed out older woman at the dinner. She didn't wake up right away and so they placed her on a gurney, strapped her in, and plopped her Macy's bag on top of her lap and wheeled her away! That's the funniest thing that I ever heard happen to my relatives, and I am Kris Reef with the funiest Reef-related story that I wanted to share with you'all. I wrote about this in High School and got an A, and later i got a reef tank, and there you go!

I get it. But what you missed was the tie in to "letting the cat out of the bag"

Thought I’d share this. When it’s slow on the unit and I’m out in the hall , I like to draw stuff(work eves mostly so it can be pretty quiet at times). Ignore the cricket thing that’s with them.
