I'm betting that came from a newspaper article that is floating around the internet. Since i can't post the picture of the article here, i'll transpose it here.
"Don't Mess with Grandma An elderly Florida lady did her shopping and, upon returning to her car, found four males in the act of leaving with her vehicle. She dropped her shopping bags and drew her handgun, proceeding to scream at the top of her voice, "I've have a gun and i know how to use it! Get out of the Car!" The four men didn't wait for a second invitation. They got out and ran like mad. The lady, somewhat shaken, then proceeds to load her bags into the back of the car and got in the drivers seat. She was so shaken she could not get her key into the ignition. She tried and tried, and then it dawned on her why. A few minutes later, she found her own car parked four or five spaces farther down. She loaded her bags into the car and drove to the police station. The Sargeant to whom she told the story couldn't stop laughing. He pointed to the other end of the counter, where four pale men were reporting a car jacking by a mad, elderly woman described as white, less than five feet tall, glasses, curly white hair, and carrying a large handgun.
If you're going to have a senior moment, make it a memorable one!"
Now THAT was funny. I think I wet myself.
