It seems odd to me, in this day when everyone's clamoring for their 15 minutes of fame that a young woman would finally get hers, but now she's suing over it.

Cathy Marrero of Reading Pennsylvania absorbed in a text message she was sending out while walking through the mall where she works. Texting, but apparently not minding her p's and q's and the 49-year-old flips right into a mall fountain.

I can't imagine why but the mall security guard thought the video was pretty funny, apparently showed it to a bud who posted it on YouTube and the rest is history.

She's humiliated, threatening to sue the mall because security did not coming to her rescue.

All she had to do was stand up.

Now we've learn that she may need the money for attorney's fees. Seems before she soaked in the mall fountain, she allegedly soaked a co-workers credit card.

While I admit it was embarrassing, she should laugh it off like I did the time I almost walked into a pole while texting.
