Florida Child Born in Florida Manner
"Ana Johana Irias, 26, was using an ATM near Northwest 36th Street and 13th Avenue when a teenager drove by one a bike and snatched her $800 gold necklace from around her neck. Despite being more than eight months pregnant, Irias decided to chase down the crook…. The crook eventually escaped by hop[p]ing over a fence…. Police convinced Irias to get checked out at Jackson-Memorial Hospital. Doctors there discovered that she was in labor, and shortly after the new year's came, at 12:15 to be exact, Irias gave birth to 6 pound, 6 ounce baby girl named Kimberly."
—Naturally.
6 pound, 6 ounce, and less than $800 worth.
I guess that would make California America's ass, and Texas America's grundle.
@Mr. B At this rate I really don't want to think too much about the Keys and South Padre.
hoping over a fence
What to Expect actually lists "chasing down crooks" as one of the best ways to induce labor. I went for the spicy foods myself.
@Choire: I am stuck in H'wood FL for the Orange Bowl [sighs]. Is there anything to do here aside from get mugged at the ATM? [Disclaimer: I am not eight months pregnant.] Oh, and why is it FREEZING?
go tigers!
Ana Johana, Ana Johana, bo-bana Johana,
Banana Johana-fana Johana, fo-fana Johana,
Fee-fi-fo-fana Johana,
ANA JOHANA!
I mean I hate to encourage this sort of behavior, but snatching a necklace while cruising by on a bike is pretty fucking impressive. Like jousting or something.
@deepomega: Like polo, but different.
@deepomega imagine the concentration
@deepomega NYT ran an article on the teen brain so I know this is exactly sort of high risk behavior they excel at!
