The Gnome Story
As told to me by a coworker. She swears its a true story that happened to one of coworkers at the jewelry store she works at part time.
Her coworker's kid called the store all excited one day telling her "Mama, Mama, come home, come see what I got!" She told him "I'm working, show me when I get home". He kept calling back with the same message "Mama, Mama, come home, come see what I got!" just as excited each time. Finally, she figured she should go home and check it out so she got her manager to cover for her and went home. Her son is waiting at the door for her all excited and the first words out of his mouth are "Mama, I caught a gnome!" He proceeds to take her to his room where he has barricaded his closet door with his bed and desk. When they unbarricade and open the door she finds a midget in there. Apparently her son had opened the door to a missionary and decided that the missionary was a gnome and decided to catch him by locking him in his closet.
