Know anyone who's been "Baker'd" into a shrink shop?

A few weeks ago some cops took my wife involuntarily from work to a mental health canter, where they put her under 24-observation and evaluation.

They did this under Florida's Baker Act, which provides for voluntary or involuntary admission to such places.

Apparently, my wife went a little off the rails at work, so the cops used their authority to take her.

Anyone out there had similar experiences, especially outside the state of Florida? If so, I'm interested to know what your state's laws are for this situation.

This is as close as you get. She looks like the Phillipina who shot ping pong balls out of her a-hole in "Priscilla Queen of the Desert."

In fact, my wife is a Phillipina who shoots ping pong balls out of her a-hole. That's one of the reasons I married her--and for all I know, maybe that's what she was doing at work to get hauled away (although I think it was something work related).

I'm sure you remember the chick from the movie, but scroll down to the crazy Asian chick anyway. If you can't take your eyes off the dudes, hey, that's none of my concern.

Here you go:

The funny thing is, if I had been there I could've told them, "Hey, this is normal behavior for her. Nothin' to see, move along now."

There are laws in most states that allow this, I think the local Coroner has to sign off on it in LA, but I can't remember off the top of my head.

Aw hell, there's like 6 or 7 million chicks over in the islands every bit whack as my wife is. But you gotta be--well, let me put it this way ...

When I picked my wife up from the facility the following day, the doc who did the eval--well, when he met me he gave me a look that clearly said:
"You must be one scary fricked up muthafricka to be married to that bitch."

And of course, he's right.

The point being, you do not want to get involved with a person like my wife unless you yourself are a hideously twisted frick. I kid you not.

So what is the thread for if you agree she should have been in there?


Or are you building a case against her for the divorce and was the one who called the police.
