Unfortunately I wasn't in the teener tonight, but I had a run in with "Huntsville's Finest" (What an oxymoron). I was headed down the interstate and exited to get on a south bound limited access Parkway. Well there is this really nice sweeper that leads to the merge that can be taken very smoothly at the interstate speed of 65mph. The parkway speed limit is 50. I know this pig is behind me somewhere, but he didn't seemed to be interested in me for the previous 5 miles, so I do my thing have my 30 secs of fun and merge onto the Parkway at 60, which is about the flow of traffic speed. AS I look in my rear veiw to merge this pig breaks half a dozen traffic laws to wrecklessly tailgate me, kinda like "look at me I am a punk with a badge and I can do anything I want". SO I drop the speed from the flow of traffic to 50mph. Grandma passes me on a bike but this pig is still on my ass. I can play his game, so we cruise at 50 for about 6 miles him right on my ass and me pickin' my nose in the mirror. People are passing us by the dozens, I am still at 50mph. Then this moron tries to go around me on an access ramp and I am actually stuck in traffic so he can't merge in front of me. He keeps going on the next access road, at 60+mph and finally get past the traffic and starts cruising at 60mph right past all of the 50mph speed limit signs. I speed up to traffic speed and captain pig slows down again to fuck with me some more but some one turns in front of him and the pig has to slow down enough for me to get a screen of traffic in front of him and I go on about my life severly pissed.
What kind of recourse does the regular citizen have against the Donut Nazis? None. "WHO YA GONNA CALL" the cops, please. That is about as effective as asking Ted Kennedy to tell the truth. Can you tell I don't like this new breed of pigs? Punks with a gun and a badge. Don't tell me I need cops because I don't. End of rant (for now) Number of time I used pig in this post: 4 Number of times I used Captain pig: 1 number of times I used donut nazi: 1 |

Good Grief Craig the longer I know you the more I'm surprised by what you do & the outcome (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) From posting "barenekidladies" web sites to ticket collecting. That's quite eclectic (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I Love It (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif)
I usually get along with Cops quite well. The State Troopers would park in my Dads upholstery shop lot, go in & have coffee & watch traffic go down Hwy 30 in the St. Helens area. I got to know a lot of them & that was a good thing whilst being in high School! Then, when working for various city's I did maint. on their cars. Would also provide "cover" for them if they needed to get close to a house for investigation purposes. Also have numerous cousins in the LAPD. Some cops are dicks but most are great people. I'm glad they're around (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer.gif) ...........b |
