This is for the Question Board, The Reading Workshop. I was driving down the road to work when I saw and old lady standing by the side of the road. I stooped to ask if she needed a ride. she said ''sure'' and then mumbled. I got out to help her in and she hit me with her purse! I continued driving while she was telling me how she ended up on the road. It was a really long story! She said she had been kidnapped and was in the passenger side of some random vehicle, she then said she started slapping the guy with her purse till he fell right out of the vehicle! She then started driving home when the vehicle ran out of gas, so she just pushed it over into the woods cause it was really small. So anyways that's how she said she got on the side of the road. She asked me to take her to this gas station which was on the way to were I was going anyway. Once I reached the gas station she got out to use the pay phone. I stayed just in case her son couldn't come get her, it was a good thing I stayed to! She started sobbing and said no one was home and asked me to take her home. On the way to her house and told me stories about her life, her job, and her family it took quit awhile to get to her house. When we got there my work shift was already over and she asked if I wanted some tea.I decided I would stay for tea then call my boss to tell him what happened. He didn't believe me so she told me she said ''let talk to him''.When she got of the phone she was mumbling and my boss wanted to talk to me. He said he didn't believe me and told me to get to work right then. So I got in my car, told her bye and I was off to work. Once I got there I saw balloons and streamers! I hoped out and he was outside with everyone else cheering. Then a police officer came up beside me and patted me on the back. I started walking to everyone when some more police officers came walking with a guy in handcuffs. It was my boss rick! they said ''hes the one who kidnapped her''! He gave me the papers for the company and all that stuff so now I own my own Home Made Granny pies company. Me and my workers take lessons from the elder and her friends, she has made the company better! Thanks the the elder and her friends we now me own, Granny's Home Made Pies Hotel! I'm even getting a bigger factory I have a better company. We sell things galore! I'm even thinking of making building with less equipment cause there all hand made. ''My workers are going to love the new company'' says the elders. Its even going to have apartments for the workers and a bunch of normal house kitchens. The elder and me spend our days baking the pies and goody's.Shes even inviting her family over tonight for a dinner. I sure glad i picked that old lady up!

This post is from the Question Board. I was driving down the street and I saw an old woman. She had her thumb up trying to hitch a ride. I opened the door and she hopped in. She kindly said thank you and it was silent from then on. Then further down the road the old woman pulled out her cane and hit me in the face with it. I got knocked out cold.When I woke up I was in a house. Then I got up and looked around trying to find out if anybody else was in the house. All of the sudden I heard whistling coming from the other side of the door. I slowly walked to the door and turned the knob. When I opened the door there was the same old lady that I picked up. She then looked at me and tackled me down to the ground. Then she handcuffed me to the pole outside and left me there.
After a few hours I realized I could lift the handcuffs off the pole. I was finally free but I didn't have the keys of my car. My keys were most likely in the house. But the old woman was dumb enough to leave the keys in the car! The car wasn't locked so I hopped in and took off. As I was pulling out of the driveway the old woman burst open the door and yelled "Come back I need you"! I just kept on driving like nobody's business.
When i finally got to my house the first thing I did was call 911. When they answered I told them how an old woman had captured me and took me to her house. So they came out to my house and told me that I had to lead them to the old woman's house. So when we got there the old woman was on the porch sitting down on her chair. The police man got out and asked if she had took me to her house. She admitted of what she had done. After she had admitted she kidnapped me they took her to jail and it was over.
When I got back home my parents were sitting on the couch and looked upset. I told them what had happened and they looked very shocked. My parents were very glad I was okay. My mom decided to go buy me a phone so if there is an emergency I can call for help. Now I can finally get some sleep. But after what had happened Iv'e decided to never drive alone unless I absolutely have to.
A few days went by and there was a knock at the door. I looked through the peak hole and it was the same old woman. I started to shake really bad. My parents were at work. So i decided to get the phone and call the police when I came back to the door she was gone! I was so relieved that she was gone but scared that she knew where I lived. When my parents got home I told them how the old lady was at the door. They decided to have someone stay home with me when they went to work. I felt safer with someone with me,Instead of being alone.
After a few weeks later I thought the old lady had just disappeared and wouldn't come back to my door. But I was so wrong. While my parents were at the grocery store I was at my house with my aunt. All of the sudden the front door swung open. The old lady was at the door with her cane. She started to swing at me with her cane. But my aunt stepped in and took the old lady down. I very quickly called 911 and they showed up and arrested the old lady again! I had asked them why they let her out of jail and they said she escaped. They told me they were gonna take her to prison. It was the almost worst day of my life. This old lady just won't give up.
After everything happened with the old lady I was pretty much safe. She had 2 years in prison and I was really happy. Now I can go back to my usual life. Which is just the way I like it. I'm glad all of the stuff is over with. I can finally be a safe person. My life is finally back to normal!

The old woman could talk your ear off. She could cut your neck. They could also be really nice she could give you cookies. She could be really weird. She might have a really mean guard dog. She could look weird because she has a wart on her face. She could be a really mean person, like she could do mean things to you. But she could be a nice and fragile woman that fell down, and you stop and helped her back up. Then you asked the old woman if she needed a ride and she said yes. Then he would take her to the hospital. When they got to the hospital she said thank you so much for picking me up off the side of the road. Then after she got all fixed up they went to a store and they had fun. Then he took her to her house in his car. The old woman gave a big YA-HOO because she was getting excited. She wanted to go to all the places he wanted to go. She was having a good time. Once they got to her house her dog got freaked out so her dog bit him. He was bothering the dog that is how he got hurt by the dog. Now his hand is bleeding so he asked the old woman for a band-aid. When she came back out of her house she brought medicine for his hand, but it accidentally went in his eyes and it burned like crazy! She goes back in her house and gets water for his eyes. When she gives the water to him he drinks it instead of rinsing his eyes out. His hand is still bleeding and his eyes are still burning like crazy. The old woman takes him in the house. He sits on a chair. Then he says, 'OWWWWWW!!!' because there was a thumb tack on the chair. The old woman laughs at the dude. Then she gave him a cookie to make him feel better. He eats the cookie. He said it was yummy. All the sudden he started swelling up because there were peanuts in the cookie and he is allergic to peanuts. They get back in the car to take him to the hospital. She is driving now. On the way she crashes the car. She forgot she was old and wasn't supposed to drive. The ambulance came to take them to the hospital. Now they are at the hospital. They went into the hospital. He was really close to dying. The doctors were able to help him with all of his problems from his crazy day. He was finally feeling better. e went to find the old woman in her room at the hospital. When he found her, he said that he never wanted to see her again because she was bad luck. That is how an old woman could harm you even if she wasn't trying.

image from thumbs.dreamstime.com/x/cartoon-old-woman-10416614.jpg. This is a assignment for my L.A class on the question bored. What harm could a old lady do.I was driving my new car downtown and I saw a old lady she needed a ride to columbus and I thought I could give her a ride to Columbus Ohio so I said sure.But I remember that my dad said(never pick up a hitchhiker) but I thought she wasn't going to do anything. I took the highway to Columbus she keep yelling "SLOW DOWN SLOW DOWN we're going to crash" so I said "shut up" then she grabbed a gun out of her purse and said she would shoot me.When we got to Columbus she hit me up side the head and pushed me out of the car she took off but my feet attached to the bottom of the car. When I regained consciousness I had a huge gash on my face where she hit me but I didn't pay much attention to that going down the highway 60 miles an hour.I saw a picture of her on a telephone pole that said (Wanted) I thought oh god so I tried to climb on to the car but I couldn't.She hit a speed bump and I thought now's my chance she hit the speed bump and I went flying. I landed on the car but she looked out of the mirror and saw me then she started turning back and forth saying "LET GO NOW". I still was holding on.Then all of the sudden the FBI was chasing us saying "PULL OVER WE WILL USE FORCE"then they told me to jump off I said "Are you crazy i'm not jumping" they said "fine" but then the old lady slammed on the brakes and I fell off the car and broke my nose. The FBI put me in an ambulance to go to the hospital. At the hospital they fixed me up but everywhere I went I thought she followed me stalking me sort of.Four weeks later I saw her rob a car in lauraville she stole the car it was a mustang a black and yellow mustang.I thought it was my old one I saw the tags it said J457D then it hit that's car so I called the cops and they arrested her and I got my car back. But it was trashed so I junked it and got a new one. THE END

I was in my car driving in the middle of the cold night and I saw a old woman in the middle of the street! I stop real quick and told her,"What are you doing in the street?"
She said,"I'm looking for my cat, she ran away." So I helped the old woman and we searched.
Then we searched and searched all day and night. We ran to the first place, the grocery store. "Nope, she ain't in there." she said. We ran to The Litter Place and searched all the litter in there. We told the workers what happen and they stop everything to let us searched the place.
"Not in here"I said to the old woman,"And what is your name?"
All said said is, "My name is GG."We ran to her house for some lunch. "Some tea and hot dogs won't hurt." GG said. Our next place is downtown, the last place we thought. So we searched and searched and didn't find the cat.
We both went home because it was getting dark outside, we were both very sad that we didn't find the cat. We put some food outside for the cat. We went to bed hoping the cat returns. We woke up at 6:oo am to search. Today we quick search the same places. "No,no,no,no,no,no." We said not finding the kitty . "Where is my cat," the lady said about crying."I miss my cat, it's name was Whiskers!"
I had to say,"We will find Wickers, even if the last thing I do."
We when home one more time and we found the cat when we was having a tea break. The old woman was so happy to find her cat to find out it was just in her back yard in the old hay maze. We laugh and said,"The cat was just in the back yard."I sometimes have tea or just for the fun. Over all the dogs was there too. She said,"There was no dogs in this house and there won't be!" She kicked the dogs out and pet her cat that she loved Whiskers forever. The old woman harm the dogs as much she did. The dog went to the pound but later when to a good home and I never went back to the old woman's house or the pound.

One day I was just driving down the road to get me some tacos at Taco Bell. But on the way there I saw this old woman on the road so I picked up. What harm can a old lady do?
But then the next think you know she hit me with her cane knocked me out and stole my car. So she tied me up and put me in the trunk. But when I woke up from my beating from her cane I was tied to my roof.
But I forgot I had a pocket knife and I cut the rope that I was tied to. So I jumped off the roof. I looked in the window to see if she was in the living room and sure enough she was eating my potato chips and watching a comedy show. But then I forgot that I had a phone.
So I got my phone out and the I called 911 and I told them that there is a crazy woman in my house who tied me to my roof. They said that they would be there in a minute. So while I was waiting on the cops to arrive I tried looking back in my house to see if she was still there and she was still there so that was good because the cops was just coming.
The cops just arrived and they were pounding on the door and they finally busted through the door. But when they busted through she had took off. She had ran out the back door and took off in my car. So I got to ride in the cop car with the other cops.
So we were chasing her in the cop car and she was so fast that we kid of lost her. So we were riding through town and we looked in the one ally and there was my car. So we all got out of the cop car and looked in the car and she wasn't in the car. But we ran around the building and caught her stealing another car. So we ran back to the cop car and started chasing her again.
So while we were chasing her she was driving up and mountain and when we got to the top she stooped. We all got out and the cops pulled her out of the car. But we finally caught her red handed. But we finally caught her.

I was driving down the road when I saw a poor old lady in the ditch. So I pulled over to see if she needed a ride. She said if you could take me home I would dearly appreciate it. So as she asked I was taking her home.
It was raining when we were driving to her house so I could barely see. And when I turned on the radio she turned it off. I started to get kinda angry. And on top of that she fell asleep and she was snoring. I really didn't mind her sleeping I just don't want to be the one who wakes her up. I really didn't want to be on the news for giving a old woman a heart attack. That would not be good for my job interview. So when we were passing a bunch of trailers in the woods she woke up and said that one's mine. So I pulled in and all it was is a trailer just right out of town.
Once I got to the bottom of the stairs I saw a light switch. When I hit the switch very loud music blared into my ears. I looked around then rectangular room filled with boxes and mirrors. As soon as I found the recorder playing the music I turned it off. I herd something in the corner of the room.I was driving down the road when I saw a poor old lady standing in the ditch. So I Stopped my car, and asked if she needed any help. And she sad well if you could take me home I would surely appreciate. So as she asked I was taking her home. On the way there I stopped for some food. When we were pulling in a car ran us off the road and scared the poor old lady so much.
And she thanked me and asked if I wanted some hot tea. I was late for a job interview but I think I deserved some tea. So I went in her house and sat at the table as she asked, and she served me some tea. I was shutting the door to leave when I heard a loud noise. The old lady had fell and passed out. So I tried to call the ambulance but she had no phone so I went to the car and looked for my phone but I forgot it at home. So I put her in my car and was ready to leave when the car wouldn't start. I checked under the hood and there was no spark plugs.
So I went back to the car to get the old lady to take her inside but she was gone. So I went back inside to see if she wondered off. And after I searched the whole house. As I was leaving I saw a door blended into the wallpaper. I really didn't want to go in there but I had to see if that poor old lady was ok. So I opened the door when suddenly a cat jumped out and about gave me a heart attack. So when I tried to walk when I noticed I was going down stairs. It was pitch black down there so I quickly turned on my flashlight on my key chain. It sounded like the old women. I slowly moved the boxes in front of me and as soon as I moved that last box I saw her. She had a doll that looked like a clown but before I could say anything the lights shut off. I raced over to the light switch but I couldn't find it. So I ran up the stairs to leave the house when the door slammed. I started hearing these unusually noises like the sound of a rocking chair creasing. But as I covered my ears all I herd was beware of the stair of Mary Shall, she had no children only dolls. Then I had a sudden pain in my head. And three days later I woke up In my car where I picked up the old women.And I still remember that saying beware of the stair of Mary Shall, she had no children only dolls.
So once I woke up I went straight to the police to tell them what happened, but no one believed me. I finally got a deputy to come check out the trailer. But when we got there I saw no trailer. I was so confused the deputy was really mad at me but as we were leaving I saw the old women she was in the woods with that stupid clown. And then she was gone.

This post is for the Question Board.
I never know what harm an old lady could do. She could be a robber running from the cops. She could even hold you at gunpoint. She could steal my car and kidnap me. She could steal my money and also follow you to your home and rob you.
The old lady could steal your driver license. The old lady could be a escaped prisoner I would call the cops. The old lady could steal my cat and dogs. You could be on a fishing and she could steal your cell phone
and make one of your tires flat and then you have no way to get home. Now I will tell you what happen to me.
I was driving down a road I saw the old lady and I said hi what is your name . She said it is summer and your is. I said it was Wes I lied it was Brian I can't just tell her. I said are you going somewhere I ask . She said yes I am going to Salt Creek.
I said hop in. We were there in 1 hour. She said thank sweety you are so kind hearted. I said why do you wanted to be here. She said because my kid is here.
I said ok but can't he just ride the bus. She said no and give me a piece of candy and left. I left to eating the piece of candy. I was driving down the road and now all I can remember is that I am now in the hospital now
'And I called the cop and they said this lady has done this for years'.
Think before you ask a old lady for a ride just think she can do this.

I was driving down the road to go to the store, I saw a old lady and picked her up with out thinking what she could do to me. She could have kicked me, she could steal my car or she could have kidnap me.
She could even steal my money and bye her clothe's and shoes and maybe even by her a house. She also could kill me and my friends if she wanted to. Now on to something else I did without thinking.
I wasn't even paying attention and went to my house and she walked right in my house with my friends and I. She walked straight into my bedroom and stayed in there. My friends and I walked out and forgot about her being in there. She stole my phone and my money and all of my keys besides the house key and car key I still had. My friends and I walked in and she was sitting in the living room.
I started to ask her all theses question's, I said " Do you have a house "
She said " yes ".
I asked her why wasn't she at her house.
She said "I don't know I think I got lost ".
I asked her " How old are you ".
She said she was " 72 years old ".
After I was done asking her all these question's I took her to her house. Her house was not a house she lived in the back of a store. When my friends and I dropped her off we saw a cat and a dog waiting for her. As we started to drive away they started following us. I told my friend's that we needed to hurry up and get home but they said no.
My friend's and I got to our house and hurried up and got in side the old lady and her cat and dog walked right on by. Two hours later they walked by and came inside our house. Luckily we were inside watching TV.
The old lady and her pets finally left our house two days later and went and bought a house for her and her pets. The old lady told us thank you and went in her house.

I was driving down the road it was a cold October day. I was on my way to the pumpkin show the biggest thing in downtown Circleville. Well when I was on my way I saw a hitchhiker so I asked her were she was heading she said she was heading to the pumpkin show to so I said that is were I am was going too so I said hope in I will give you a ride. She was a old lady her name was Susie. I thought to myself what could she do to me she is just a sweet old woman? So then I told here I just had to get some gas or we will never make it, she said that's fine.
So then when we got there I had to go inside and pay for the gas, but when I came outside the car was gone! The old lady was not as sweet as I thought. There went my plans of going to the pumpkin show and my car was brand new. So then I had to call my mom and tell her and of course that did not go well. She was the one who told me not to pick anyone up in the first place. So she would not come pick me up so I had to find a bus stop so a bus could take me home.
But then it hit me my mom had stored a tracker in my coat so that she could find me, and my coat was in the back of my car! My car I could find it so then I called my mom back and I told her my coat was in the back of my car and that there was a tracker in it. So then she said okay get off at the next stop and I will come pick you up I said okay. I got off at the next stop and called her I was watching for her for about 5 minutes and then she came and we went home. When we got home we found out the tracker that finds my coat and my car was not to far from our house. But we saw that the car was moving so me and my mom hoped in the car and took off driving.
We were in my moms car when we found my car driving on a highway. We the car until it stopped but when she got out of the car it was not the right woman! It was a different car we were not even following the right car! So I got back in my moms car and said we followed the wrong car. She said " Okay then lets look at the tracker again maybe we just missed a turn." I said okay and turns out we did miss a turn the car was on its way to downtown Circleville where the lady said she was going.
So then my mom and I took off driving. When we got on the same road that my car was on we started looking for my car and then I saw it driving 53 mph it looked like when the speed limit was 42 mph. Then she turned into a parking lot, so my mom and I did too. When she got out of the car she had a cane with her, she saw me and tried to get back in the car and drive off! But I got in the back of the car and yanked her hair before she could put the keys in and then I found out she had a wig! I then told her to step out of the car and she did
She had to have her cane to stand though so I let her bring that with her. But next thing you know she started hitting me with her cane OUCH I said! she just kept hitting me I kept saying stop but she didn't and then my mom came over and tackled her! I did not expect her to do that, but then all of a sudden I felt a smack the lady had got up and smacked me again. I turned around and grabbed her cane and through it on the ground. Then a helicopter came and let a ladder down somebody said clip the ladder Tyler I told my mom to climb to but first my mom kicked the old lady and then my mom started climbing!
When we got up to the top of the helicopter my dad, little brother, and older sister were up in the helicopter sitting down. How did you know were we were I asked? I always have my tracker with me I have a app on my phone for it so I can find all of you kids he said. I'm gald I said so then he started flying us to the house and my mom said we never did get your car back i'm sorry. I said its okay but i'm not done wither her yet and I pulled out the keys from my coat pocket, She said how did you get those she asked I said she dropped them and I picked them up before we climbed the ladder. I told my dad to turn the helicopter around we are going back for the lady and our cars because my moms car and mine were still there.
When we got back to the parking lot both cars were still there and so was the old lady. I climbed down the ladder slowly and quietly went up behind her and tackled her just like my mom did and then she threw me off her back and took her cane waked me once again and my mom was on the phone with the cops so I garbed the bottom of the cane pushed it up and she fell over. My mom ran over to me and said softly "the cops are on there way. " Okay I said, then the cops came zooming into the parking lot to pick up the old lady and they picked her up and set her on her feet then they just put her hands behind her back and handcuffed her!
Then after all of that running and hitting and losing my car I had my car back the old lady was in jail. I had a pretty good rest of the day after that so then we went home got cleaned up, ate dinner, and went to bed but there was one problem the old lady was in my dreams! Then I started screaming, next my mom came rushing into my room I told her about my dream and she said its okay your just scared okay I said then she went back in her room so I lied back down and stared out my window and there was my best friend in the window I let her in and then she told me that her grandma went to jail for stealing someones car and hitting them with her cane I said " That was me!" she said she was mad at me and went back outside and left. From that day on she never talked to me again and I lived the rest of my life just fine.

After the old woman got into the car, I noticed how stiff she was and that she was covered in snow. "Thank you so much! It's freezing out there!" the old lady said in a somewhat thankful voice. "No problem" I said. I turned around and drove back to my house (it was kind of obvious that I couldn't go to the store with a stranger in the back seat of my car.) I made up my mind that I was going to care for this little old lady until I find out what was going on. It felt so weird bringing a woman I didn't know into my home! Would she harm me in any way? She could be a criminal! Well I guess there is only one way to find out. I don't want to leave this poor lady in the snow and I didn't want to take any chances of being hurt.What could an old woman do? All these thoughts whirred around in my head but I just wanted to do the right thing. She seemed to be very quiet the first about thirty or so minutes. She was sitting by the fire-place and looked like she was thinking really hard or day-dreaming. She looked out the window and then she got up and started walking toward the back door. I was curious what she was doing but I didn't say anything, words wouldn't come out of my mouth even if I tried, it was just too awkward. She was wearing a purple crochet cape and a blue wrinkled night gown along with worn-out slippers. Short and frizzy curls sitting on top of the woman's head and very dark and wrinkly skin. I looked over to see her slowly walking out the back door. She looked like she knew what she was doing so I didn't chime in. My brain was so attached that I forgot that I was making dinner. I was trying to snap myself out of it and moved my hand slightly and then OUCH!!! I touched the burning hot stove! Even though I wanted to scream, I tried to be quiet. I reminded myself I'm a gymnast and then I rolled and flipped all the way to the window next to the back door. When I looked out, I saw her walking to my neighbor's big shed. My neighbor, Carl, was out there talking and digging a really big hole about the size of my body. As the old lady approached, he had a confused expression on his face and then they started talking and laughing and rubbing their hands together. Hmm, very weird... I saw her looking down at the big hole (which was almost full of snow) and gave a very odd-looking smile. The old lady started heading back to the house, but then I saw her turn and go around the side of the house. She walked right passed the window I was squatting behind. I was changing positions so she couldn't see me and I was trying my best not to be seen spying. I tumbled and cartwheeled to the front door so I could look out the window and see what she was doing. She went into my garage but I couldn't see inside the garage very well and I couldn't tell what she was doing. I wander if she was going to bury something of mine?! I couldn't go to bed because I was afraid she would hurt me when I was asleep. Just the thought of letting an old granny I didn't even know stay in my house was crazy enough. Maybe she was randomly going to bury my bike or my po-go stick. I thought that if she's talking to my neighbors and sneaking around my house, it is up to me to decide if I should even let her stay...and if she keeps doing it, it is up to me to decide if I should call the police. In the middle of the night, I heard the sound of a door closing. The more I thought about what it could be, the faster my heart-beat got. I recognized that sound from anywhere. That wasn't just any door...it was the back door! I can't handle all the creepiness. It was just me and my cat. NO parents. NO type of guardian. NO body-guard. NO strong and brave prince to come and save me. I was helpless. The only thing I could think of was to hide under my covers. I couldn't go down those dark and scary hallways just to find some granny trying to kill me! Do it Maddy! I said to myself, you can do it! I threw on my furry robe and headed out of my bedroom. I crept down the pitch black hallway. I had the most horrible feeling in my stomach. I started to miss my parents and I wanted my cat to come and keep me company but it was best she stayed safe in my room. I got to my cozy living room (which wasn't so cozy at the time) and ran to the dark kitchen. I squatted behind the counters and I was thinking about how my mom and dad warned me about strangers and how they told me not to trust them. I was thinking about how I didn't listen to my parents' warnings and how I didn't care and just wanted to do things my way. I heard the door open and a gust of murderous wind made my face turn from confident and fearless to petrified. My face froze with fear. Oh no! The sound of her slippers scraping against the tile made me want to scream and run to my parents, but as she turned the corner, it was too late!... "Hello sweetie!" the old woman said. I couldn't believe what I was hearing! My eyes were closed shut and I was curled up in a ball. "Wha-wha-wha-what?" I could barely speak. "I made you some cookies! I started baking a while back" she chirped. "why were you sneaking out at night?" I asked. "Oh! I was just going over to Carl's house to borrow some frosting" she said. "Why were you in the garage?" I asked. "I was seeing if you had any cookie dough in your fridge" she said. "Hmm" I said, "what was that hole for?" "You know sweetie-pie. I really don't know. That's Carl's business" she told me, "I just thought we could become friends!" she said. "That's fine by me!" I said. And that is how a stranger became my friend. P.S. This is a project for my language arts class, www.thereadingworkshop.com/

I was driving down the road to a party and I saw a old lady hitchhiker and stopped to help. I helped her get into my Ferrari and I said "What is your name?" and i found out her name is Sally. I told her if she wanted to go to the party and Sally said yes. So, we went to my friend Eddy's party and She was a party machine! She Chugged a WHOLE 32 ounce bottle of Dr. Pepper. She was also a dancing maniac. Then she trashed Eddy's house , trash everywhere. We heard a slam of a door open, it was my mom."Stop this party NOW!!" Mom said, with anger in her eyes. "Get in the car! This party is OVER!!" When we drove home in my parents car, Mom didn't speak, just eyes of anger. Sally was knocked out in the back seat, not moving. My Ferrari was towed also, probably my punishment. It was a long ride home. When all of us got home, mom had a talk with me. I ignored most of it, but I only heard "What if she was a criminal!?" and "You need to be careful!". She finally said " Take her back to her house in the morning with my car. And no more partying." When morning came, I had to get Sally. But I could not find her anywhere. I checked the living room, kitchen, bathroom, upstairs, nothing. I went to look outside, I saw Sally on the roof of my house sleeping. I yelled to try to wake her up but she was knocked - out. I dragged her down AGAIN from the roof. It was a slow processes because she weighed surprisingly a lot and I just woke up. I pulled her down my chimney into the dining room. We were covered in ash and dirt when she finally woke up. She didn't remember the party or me picking her up off the road. She freaked OUT. She said "Who are you?!" and "Where am I?!". I told her the story about me picking her up and going to the party, but she was hesitant. "You KIDNAPPED Me?! You Are in so much TROUBLE! Sally said. All that noise and yelling woke up my parents . My parents were rushing down the stairs as fast as they could. That's when they noticed the old lady still in their house. "What's going on here?!" my Dad said with frustration. "she should of been gone this morning!" mom said. Sally said "This young man KIDNAPPED Me! me should go in jail! ". I told my parents "She doesn't remember last night. I'll take her home right now.". As I tried to get the old lady to get in the car, my parents made sure i was taking her home. I asked Sally where she lived; she said she lived in Cookieville Rd, Sugar State. I live on Cookieville Rd, Sugar State. Sally lived right beside me. And to that day, we visit each other on Christmas.

I was driving down the road to go get my best friend Cheyenne I saw an old lady walking down the street. I stopped and she asked if i could give her a ride and I said" sure". I asked her name and where she had to go and she said "My name is Margret and I need to go get some stuff at Walmart.''
I told her we had one more stop to make then we could go to Walmart. So I pull up to Cheyenne's house and she gets in my truck she said who's that I said that's Margret we have to take her to Walmart. She is gonna get some stuff.
I told her I could give her a ride.'' So we get to Walmart Margret goes in and she comes out with a bunch of stuff but it wasn't in bags. Margret said she didn't want her stuff bagged.
Then Margret said she needed to go to Dollar General. So we get to Dollar General and Margret comes out with no bags. She didn't want her stuff bagged.
Then, Margret said I need to go to the mall. I said ok. That's where were heading.
So ,me and Cheyenne are getting our dresses from Rue 21 because tomorrow is prom!! Margret goes in to JC penny. She comes to me and says we need to go I thought why we just got here??
I told her we are not leaving because we just got here!! She started running through the mall!! I thought man she is one crazy old lady.
Then the store manager came running after us with 5 mall cops and I asked them what the problem was and she said Margret STOLE three shirts!!!! I asked Margret about it and she said she stole all that stuff from Walmart, Dollar General and those three shirts I made her return everything and she got arrested for theft. I haven't heard anything from her since then.

This story is for my Question Board What Harm could an old lady do?
Today is March 20th 2020 and its my birthday and I am 16 my mom got me a car to. She said ''Do not give anyone a ride unless it is one of your friends''. So I was on my way to my friend Alivia's house and I saw an old lady on the the side of the road.
As I got near I felt bad for her so I thought that I would give her a ride. So I got out to ask if she was OK and she was fine. She said her name was Bella and she did not know where she was. So as I was helping Bella to get near the car yelled at me.
So I called Alivia and she said that I needed to get out of there as fast as I could but as I got in to my car she tried to shoot me so I hit her with my car. But as I thought that she was on the ground still she was right back up on her feet . She tried to grab a hold of the car and drive away with me but she lost her grip. So as I was going to Alivias now that I got rid of the old lady Bella I saw her again she tried to get me to look at her.
Finally I just told Alivia to meet me at my house so I did not have to drive and see her again. That day me and Alivia went to the park and had some fun she also spent the night with me. But the next day we where on our way to her house when we saw that crazy old lady Bella. So Alivia was driving and she did not listen to me when I said that it was the crazy lady. So Alivia thought that it would be fun to be mean to her.
So Alivia would stick money out the window and she would try to grab it but Alivia would pull it back in the window. The old lady Bella was getting pretty mad.She would also dive back and forth acting like she was going to pick up and than she would leave. By this point I think she was ready to kill someone it was mean but funny at the same time.
So after she was done being mean to the old lady we went to Alivia's house. We were in her room and her mom was not going to be home for an hour. So we were upstairs watching movie and my mom lives 15 minutes.
As we were upstairs we could hear something out side. So we went downstairs and sat in the chairs. Than the doorbell rang. we both were like whatever its just someone at the door.So she told me to go upstairs and look out the window at the door so I did and it was the crazy old lady.
I ran downstairs and I told Alivia we both were freaking out. So we were just trying to be still and she just keep ringing the doorbell. She finally went away and we were looking out all the windows to make sure that she was still outside and we locked all the doors. There was no sign of her it was like she just vanished.
So it was getting to the time when her mom should have been getting home. So we just sat there and waited. But when she ever came home we were wondering where she was. So we called my mom to see were Alivias mom was.
It turns out that the person ringing the doorbell was her mom and she left her house key in the house. So when she came home she was trying to make us open the door for her. But when we did not open the door she drove to my moms to call us.

I was driving down the road and then I saw an old lady. I picked her up and she said,''My name Bianca. Then she said,'' Thank you for the pick up my dear.'' In an old, dry voice. But then there was a turtle in the road. So we waited and waited and waited. 3 hours later and the turtle had finally passed. For lunch we had two different restaurants. First we went to Tim Hortons and got 3 dozen doughnuts, 2 large cappuccinos, and a double chocolate chip cookie. Then we went to Roosters and had 10 hot wings, a salad, and a sprite. But 3 hours later, Bianca got cranky when I said,'' I'm taking you home.'' But she said,''NO, I DO NOT WANT TO GO HOME!'' In my mind, I thought This is outrages! So we went to see something that makes her sleepy. It's the movie Green Lantern. After the movie, I took Bianca home when she was asleep. But, 4 minutes, after we got home, she woke and said,''NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! THIS IS NOT THE MOVIES! THIS IS MY HOUSE!'' So I said,''Yes, because you need to be home so you can sleep!'' She said nothing. Then she went to sleep. The next day, I went to see how Bianca is. When I got there, there was a man siting watching T.V. So I went to find her. She was In the kitchen. She said,'' I got married.'' That night I thought about what she said. Witch I was fine with it, she need to be with somebody other than me. But I can't shake the feeling that the guy was cheating on her, because I saw 2 rings on his finger. The next day, I went to check on her to see how she was. When I got there, I saw that the man was gone and she was In the living room. When I walk In, She said,''Hello dear. What are you doing here.'' I said,''I just wanted to see you, AND I wanted to talk about the man your marring.'' So we talk, and the decision is final. I will leave her alone. But I was fine with It. The next day, I tried not to think about Bianca. So I went to a movies and had Roosters for lunch. Then I for got about her. Who Is she again?
