Moto Miracle

| | 2 peeps are talkin'.

There are a few questionable statements here, but I guess if you live in a place rife with flying bullets and can't afford Kevlar©, a cellphone'll do the trick:

A stray bullet hit a man in his chest while he was mowing his lawn Saturday, but he escaped injury because the bullet slammed into a cell phone in his pocket.

R.J. Richard of Slidell said he was working in his yard when a large-caliber bullet slammed into his chest.
[...]
Richard said he didn't know what hit him, but he knew something was wrong. When he tried to dial 911, his cell phone fell apart in his hands.

The stray bullet had hit his Motorola cell phone. Richard said he normally keeps the phone in his pants pocket, but that day he had it in a pocket over his heart.



So having a pocket over your actual heart seems a bit of an odd location. Most shirt pockets are higher. But never mind that. I think what I like about this story is that it is so full of hopefullness:

"It increased my faith," R.J. Richard said. "I am hopefully more humble. I hopefully will love my wife more and quicker."

Cell phone manufacturers can probably do something with this story in their ads. Y'think?

More and quicker: just what every woman wants. :) Strange re the pocket, I agree. Maybe he meant his chest in general and was being dramatic. I keep my Moto in my purse, obvii, to protect mah cash from stray bullets.

I think he should hopefully lurve her not only more and quicker, but clean up after.
