Hit her again in the same local and she relaxed enough for us to shackle her down to a bullring. A few seconds later she was at again only this time she was fighting steel and concrete. She lost.

On a side note to all, does everybody know that electricity takes the past of least resistance? I just wasn't quite convinced of this so I just had to see this two weeks ago when I put my hand a little too close to the front and I saw in "very slow motion" the arc(s) jumping from one stud to my hand.

I hate electricity...
Was this for her not signing a twelve MPH over the limit ticket too?
