People are capable of picking an average weight person off the ground if they
WANT to.

Subject: QUAD-L My quad story today
Me and my sister Patti use to go out night club hopping in the mid-70s and
close the place down. This was anywhere from 1-4 years post when I was still
just using only a manual chair.
One night we closed a place and the band asked us to follow them home to party
with them because they loved that I danced in my chair.
We got to the house in the middle of nowhere and Patti starts pushing me across
the lawn in the pitch dark after the guys where inside. Well we hit something
and I went flying out of the chair and it ended up on top of me along with
Patti.Well, we thought this was hysterical and couldn't stop laughing ... of
course we were very drunk.
The guys finally came out to see where we were. When they discovered what had
happened THEY freaked out. "Here let us pick her up." They each grabbed a limb
and started pulling in different directions. Well, Patti and I thought this was
hysterical and they wanted to know what was so funny."She could be hurt, what's
so funny about that?" Patti said "She already has a broken neck."
They ended up walking away because we were laughing so hard. Bobbie

I think we all have stories that are funny as well as 'you've gotten be kidding
me' but here's one you'll enjoy.Ifanyone's been to the Grand Hotel in Mackinac,
you'll know that there's an enormous hill to climb to get from the street to
the hotel entrance. I was in a Braun TriWheeler and slalomed up the hill
because the device just didn't have the guts to go straight up the hill. So we
made it to the top and went out on the porch. You can see 3 of the Great Lakes
from there. Well, we proceeded to have a couple of cocktails and it came time
to leave. I figured, I can go straight down the hill and be ok. Well down the
hill I went. That triwheeler was flyin'!!I got to the bottom all in one piece
but the gal that I was with says, 'do you know you ran over a cigarette back
there?' I said 'no' and looked down and the things was on fire! I took her
coke, threw it on the fire area and limped back to my van. Funny today-scary
then.
