I think we can all relate

Maybe this doesn't belong in humor but since there is no section for; Do you laugh or cry, Or just plain odd or cynical and ironic humor. Really not humorous at all; But we've all been there and seeing ironic cynical humor is maybe the only way to deal with this strange and bizarre reality.

We probably all have shower and toilet tales but this has to be our nightmare.

Woman is stuck in bathtub for 4 days


Firefighters said Monday they rescued an 81-year-old pensioner who spent four days stuck in her tub after she got in for a warm bath and couldn't muster enough strength to get out.

Authorities in Linz, about 120 miles west of Vienna, said they went to the woman's apartment after neighbors reported hearing faint knocking inside.

Firefighters told public broadcaster ORF the woman was in surprisingly good condition despite having been immersed in bath water since last Thursday evening. They said she told her rescuers she lacked the strength to get out of the tub and had knocked and shouted for help.

The woman was taken to a hospital for treatment of exposure, ORF said.

That's just sad - does she have no family?? I call mom and dad every now and then because with the storm the news-people told us to "check on your elderly." LOL - they're 60 and 64, don't appreciate being my elderly!!
