The Darndest Thing!
Out in the midwest, tornadoes often hit with sudden devastation, and
without warning...
In one case, a house was completely whisked away leaving only the
foundation and first floor. A silver-haired farm lady was seen sitting
dazed, in a bathtub, the only remaining part of the house left above the
floor.
The rescue squad rushed to her aid and found her dazed, but unhurt. She
was just sitting there in the tub, talking to herself.
"It was the darndest thing... it was the darndest thing," she kept
repeating.
"What was the darndest thing, Ma'am?" asked one of the rescuers.
"I was visiting my daughter here, taking a bath and all I did was pull the
plug and the whole darned house suddenly just drained away."
