i think this is just class. we were around our friends doing a little ghostbusting and listening, i had my camcorder and was watching for orbs...etc with the night vision. we were sat there in the quiet for about 20 minutes, then my friends son went to the store for a few minutes, but in that time his mother decided to play a trick on him. she tied some cotton around the front room door and was going to pull it when he came back and sat down to scare him. well, he came back and she dropped the piece of cotton which was still around the handle of the door. dont forget its dark, but just enough light to see eachothers outline. my wife is sat on the floor and starts pulling the cotton, which makes the door move a little. my wifes friend gasps and cant speak, her mouth is wide open and she is stutterring, "did you do that?" she said looking at me.....she was very scared and i captured it on the camcorder. i said no and she kept going on about the cotton, saying she still had it, but she was mistaken and after about 5 minutes of trying to reason with her she finally got what had happenned. this was so funny.

I always say outlandish things to mah girl, to scare her. Like guess what I got fired from my job... wait! just kidding! But this one day it backfired. She was on the phone talking to a friend in a different room, and we heard a loud sound from outside. Out of no where I decide to say: Someone hit your car! She says: Really? I say.. nah.. but to find out what it really was, I look outside. And guess what? Some fool crashed into her car, while it was parked. So I say babe really someone crashed into your car! Hurry come see! She then tells me to shut up, that shes on the phone, doing something important. I run to her with a serious face and say: Look at me, Im serious.. someone just crashed your vehicle. She then runs to the window, and sees a big orange mark all across her green vehicle, and the rear view mirror on the out side was hanging on its hinges. The dent was hard to notice, but we ran outside and saw that a nice hit was delivered... It was rather frustration.. I mean.. how the heck do you hit a parked car? Im guessing the dude was drunk or a new driver.. because before the hit, there a continued sound of forward brake, forward brake, forward crash....
