Hell Hath No Fury



A 92 year old Florida woman, Helen Staudinger, opened fire on her 53 year old neighbour, Dwight Bettner, after he refused to respond to her request for a kiss. Sorry for the visual. The report did not state whether she requested a peck or a French kiss. I’m really sorry for that visual too. If given the choice most men would probably take the bullet. 92 year old shoots up house

So should Granny be perceived as a cradle robbing slut or does she give new meaning to the term cougar? This is a modern day fatal attraction. The older woman, younger man relationship rarely works out. I managed to find one that did and have included the link here, complete with a photo of a kiss. Gran weds organ lover (Again, sorry) However, I’ll bet had the 92 year old Bonnie Parker also had been wealthy, the 53 year old would have been most accommodating. I`m just saying.

Paul Simon wrote a song titled”50 ways to leave your lover”. The chorus went like this.

Just slip out the back, Jack, make a new plan, Stan
Don't need to be coy, Roy, just listen to me.
Hop on the bus, Gus, don't need to discuss much
Just drop off the key, Lee, and get yourself free


Paul never once mentioned a shoot-out in his lyrics. If I may be so bold.

Just turn out the light Dwight; forget about the kiss miss;
Put down the gun mom, just listen to me.
You don`t need a man, Gran, you`re too close to kicking the can
Soon you will see he wanted only your money
