Pronunciation: dee fib u lay ter

Sentence: Agatha decided that at 59, she had been alone and shelf-concious for too long. Her ads in the Singles columns brought men her own age, who had baggage, most of it too heavy for her to carry. There was Ted who "loved to take long walks" (cause he lost his license); Ernie who "loved children" (had one in each state);George who was "newly single" (since his wife kicked him out when she caught him in bed with a nun and a dachshund); Reg who loved "romantic dinners at home" (at her home, cooked by her,because he was too cheap to take her to McDonald's); Fred who was "a man of independent means" (since his pogey had kicked in); Gary who was "college-educated" (thanks to the Corrections Service Inmate Education Program);and Norris who was "a social drinker" (he apparently was social 24/7!) Fed-up, Agatha lied about her age (now 39) and a few other details (forgot to mention all that plastic surgery, oops) and attracted the attention of Biff, a twenty eight year old paramedic. Things went well on her first date with the robust young ambulance jockey. That is, until they ran into his parents. His mom recognized Agatha from her high school days as the class bike (everyone had a ride!). Boy did, Agatha have to use the old defibyoulater that night!

Etymology: Defibrillator (an electronic device that administers an electric shock of preset voltage to the heart through the chest wall in an attempt to restore the normal rhythm of the heart during ventricular fibrillation...often used when older people go into cardiac arrest) & Fib (lie, tell untruths ) & You Later (afterwards)
