Woman attacks husband in row over hurricane preparations

An elderly Florida woman has attacked her husband with a butcher's knife in a row over Hurricane Isabel.

Joan W. Harris, 70, is said to have carried out the attack because her husband was watching television instead of preparing for the hurricane.

Harris, from Port St Lucie, faces a charge of aggravated assault.

Police said: "Apparently, the argument began while the husband was watching football, and the wife was insisting he make hurricane preparations. He refused and said that he'd get to it at half-time.''

A spokeswoman said Harris then grabbed an eight-inch butcher's knife and chased her husband into a bedroom.

Police says she then began stabbing at the door before gaining entry and flinging the knife at her husband, catching him in the lower leg.

Harris was held by police before being released on bail of $10,000 (about £6,000).

Hurricane forecasters in Miami said earlier in the weekend that Isabel wasn't likely to hit Florida.

Weird

'in row'?

'in a row'?

wtf?

english slang for fight.

yup..Australians, atleast, use it also

english people are weird.

true..but then so are the Scotish, Welsh and the other Great Britians that also say it.

if i wanted to pick a fight with an english person, do i say

'i wanna row your punkass?'

that jus dont sound mean.

no m8, a row is generally a verbal fight.

"I had a row last night with the Mrs". etc....


biatch!

they speak englandish in the UK.

Hurricane Isabel missed but hurricane Harris didn't.

no, you say 'hey, lets go to the England Vs Turkey football game'. They will know what you mean.

dum dum dum

Did you hear about the CRAZY beeeeotch the got back at her cheating hubby by twisting his nuts so hard and for so long that he actually stopped breathing and died?

cockney slang fuckin rocks

that isn't cockney slang. Cockney slang rhymes, hence being called Cockney rhyming slang and is only a London thing.

So, if you say you are going to 'go up the apple and pears' you mean 'I am going up the stairs'

Another popular one is 'Can you Adam and Eve it?' ..which translates into 'Can you belive it?'.

There are traditional ones like that but they also change and get new ones.

I have heard a few people say ''Lets go for a Britney Spears' when they mean 'Lets go for a beer'.
