re: What are some of your most embarrassing moments?

When my son was 4, were were waiting in line to check out at Target. There was a very obese lady right in front of us and he loudly yelled out, "Daddy, she looks just like Jabba The Hut."

I was trying to think of one about myself, but you reminded me of a time my kid embarrassed the hell out of me.

We were at the Picadillys in Denham Springs when the fire alarm suddenly went off. If you've ever heard a fire alarm go off inside, you know what a continous piercing shriek it is. Now imagine there are 50 people trying to dine and otherwise enjoy their Sunday suppers with friends and family.

Anyway, I was standing in line holding my toddler son thinking, what frickin dumbass set off the fire alarm. I turn around and notice that the fire alarm is directly behind me, look at my son, and put two and two together. It seemed like everyone came to the same conclusion just as I did.

Making matters worse, the manager couldn't find the key to reset the alarm. It seemed like it took 5 minutes before it was finally shut off. Everyone was so pissed at us.
