My middle grandson was riding with my wife and I in my old regular cab pickup. He was probably 4 at the time.

We stopped at a stop light and this attractive girl was running down the sidewalk and approaching the intersection from our right.

Well, he leans as far forward as he can to look past granny so he could check out the runner

So of course granny had to ask him what he was looking at and found so interesting

PaPa was looking straight ahead watching the street light

I bet that your eyes migrated to the right side of your head like a flounder.

Maybe while the wife was occupied and not paying attention to me

Macomb Morgue Employee Debunks Report Worker Was Cremated By Mistake While Taking A Nap

December 6, 2017 / 12:41 PM EST / CBS Detroit
MACOMB COUNTY (WWJ) The headline is a scorcher -- It claims a Macomb County morgue employee was accidentally cremated when he took a nap and was mistaken for the dead.

Phone lines lit up Wednesday at the Macomb County Medical Examiner's Office and the prosecutor's office. People had questions, lots and lots of questions.

But there was only one answer: It's fake news. Literally fake. Not a grain of truth.

"We don't do cremations here at all ... and nobody who works here has been cremated," said Denise Calhoun, a Macomb Medical Examiner office worker.

"Why would they write this? I just wish someone had better things to do with their time."

The report is on a website with an abc news graphic and URL, and it's written by a man identified as David Foster. Close observers will see the website URL for the story has -us.com at the end, which is different than the actual abcnews.go.com site.

An email to the real ABC News seeking comment was not immediately returned.

The fake story was circulating on Facebook. It said 48-year old Henri Paul Johnson decided to take a nap on a stretcher after working for sixteen hours straight.

"While he was sleeping, another employee mistook him for the corpse of a 52-year old car accident victim and carried him to the crematory. Ms. Davis claims that the young coworker who caused the accident was a new employee, and had forgotten to check for the toe tag to make sure he had the right body."

The report says criminal charges are being considered.

Me and @armylifer must have both been a little smarter than average as kids. I was pretty sure anything that glowed bright orange was not going to make me happy if I touched it. But I did see a few friends and relatives who had to make sure. I didn’t need to. I watched my dad and grandfather light way too many cigarettes with one knowing the alternative was a match or a Zippo. Fire = HOT. Glowing Orange = HOT. The logic was simple to me. I never liked pain, especially burns. Pain is probably the best educator though.

Now I get it and I did experience it once. That's all it took to learn. Funny, I did not remember that until now. It happened more than 60 years ago.

Ok, maybe not.
