Huckleberries: When a hornet crawls up your pants leg, you respond in Nana-seconds
Huckleberries Tuesday:
At 77, Cis Gors, of Kootenai, Idaho, discovered she can still move quickly, like, for example, when a hornet crawls up her pant leg and begins to sting.
How fast did Cis get from the yard to the house to strip off her pants and shoes last week?
“Nanoseconds,” according to her Facebook page. Cis says she then rubbed some Vicks on the 2 owies – and, voila, the pain was gone. Cis can’t explain why she opted for the Vicks, other than “it sounded good at the time.” In the old days, when she smoked, she’d slap tobacco on the stings.
Facebook friend David Keyes, of Sandpoint, offered levity in a follow-up comment, suggesting that Cis edit the speed that took her from the yard to the house to “Nana-seconds.”
After all, she is a grandma 20 times over. Full column here.
When did you last move fast?
