This Is Miss Daisy

So that's who he was driving! Meet Demaris Meyer, the passenger in Morgan Freeman's smash-up late last night.

From what we can gather, 48-year-old Meyer is from Memphis, works as an executive assistant at Fed-Ex and is an avid gardener. One source tells us that Meyer is a very close friend of Morgan's wife Myrna and is often seen at their house for get-togethers.

Freeman was driving Meyer's 1997 Nissan Maxima in rural Mississippi when he lost control and the car flipped. Meyer was treated for her injuries and released.

3. Is this the woman he has been messing around with and is leaving his wife for?

4. It will be sad to learn if he was cheating on his wife with one of her close friends. I hope this is not the case.

5. WOW!!

Her picture, her name, her age, where she's employed, her hobby, and the make and model of her car.
I'm suprised TMZ didnt post, "the first day of her last period"

I'd be a MADD AZZ if my business was put out there, like that!

7. I love Morgan and very happy to hear he and the passenger are ok. He is leaving his wife ? Why assume this is his mistress it's his wife's friend ,who knows why he was driving and it's none of no one's business.

8. Morgan Freeman voice over," They were traveling down the lonely dark unjudging road the air hot, acrid and humid, deep into the long Mississippi night, the smell of honey suckle and colitis drifting up from the sun roof." "He knew he would feel guilty in the morning", "but for now he was happy for these few stolen moments". "I wish I could say everything was going to turn out all right", "I wish....."

11. I smell drama about to start hitting the internet/media..........

Posted at 5:11PM on Aug 4th 2008 by Uhhhh..... HELLO!!!!!

12. Wow. Maybe they both robbed a nearby McDonald's, ran over an old lady, used her wig to wipe the blood off the windshield, decided to switch drivers with him driving and then crashed as they rocked out to punk rock heroes The Germs. Morgan could have been singing along to their classic song "Forming".

I can speculate too.

Ta!

14. Y'all are just stupid. Oooh, driving in a car. If we're going to make up scenarios, why not say an alien spacechick can down from the sky to blow him and her anti-gravity field flipped the car. Use your imaginations for something useful, like your resume.
