Nancy's Nuggets

This is a true account recorded in the Police Log of Sarasota, Florida.

An elderly Florida lady did her shopping and, upon returning to her car, found four males in the act of leaving with her vehicle. She dropped her bags and drew her handgun, proceeding to scream at the top of her voice, "I have a gun, and I know how to use it! Get out of the car!"

The four men didn't wait for a second invitation. They got out and ran like mad. The lady, somewhat shaken, then proceeded to load her shopping bags into the back of the car and got into the driver's seat.

She was so shaken that she couldn't get her key into the ignition. She tried and tried, and then it dawned on her why. For the same reason she didn't know why there was a football, frisbee and six-pack in the front seat.

A few minutes later, she found her own car parked five spaces farther down. She loaded her bags into the car and drove to the police station to report her mistake. The sergeant who took her report couldn't stop laughing.

He pointed to the other end of the counter, where four pale men were reporting a car jacking by a mad, elderly woman described as white, less than five feet tall, glasses, curly white hair and carrying a large handgun.

No charges were filed.

MORAL OF THE STORY: If you're going to have a Senior Moment, make it memorable.

Vendor Spotlight:
Award Depot

Award Depot has grown from a “let’s try this and see what happens” business, run out of a house, with sales being made from the trunk of my car to a fast-growing and ever expanding business, now with two commercial retail locations.

We pride ourselves on high quality products, at reasonable prices with outstanding service and our customer referrals are proof that we are doing a good job!! Lori and her mother, GiGi produce all the products in their 2400 sq. ft. store located on Jacksonville’s Southside, and Iana and Michelle take orders and greet customers at the new showroom located in a mini-mall on the Westside, allowing us to serve the entire Northeast Florida and Southeast Georgia region. In addition, our web sales are growing at a phenomenal rate.

So much more than just a trophy shop, we offer a full line of gifts, awards, plaques, signs and custom personalization services, so you’ll find something for everyone!

Visit us at Award Depot and get your order in for the upcoming holiday season!
