Creating Fireworks Of My Own

My town was throwing a Columbus Day festival this weekend, which included a fireworks show for tonight. Since I either hated everybody in town or they hated me, I avoided it like the plague. I still got a chance to see the fireworks though since I was on the second floor and I was able to get a good view of it from my window.

It also gave me a good view of the drug dealers on the street too.

So here I am, just trying to mind my own business and enjoy the fireworks in peace, and there’s a crime in progress happening right underneath me. God in heaven do I hate this town.

I watched the two scumbag dealers as they got into their black ride and tossed a few bags of “white powder” around, the door and headlights on in the dark of night so all the world could see what a bunch of schmucks they were. They were getting ready to stoke a few up after what I guess must have been a good night for them, festival and all.

Hmmmmmmmmmm…

I dialed 911.

“Yeah there’s a couple of guys hashing it up on the apartment grounds here, and I was wondering if you could send somebody over to go ruin their night?” I gave the operator the location.

“What’s your name, sir?”

“Oh my name? Sure my name is-” I hung up.

I waited a few minutes, and eventually decided the cops weren’t going to do anything when a patrol car suddenly pulled up next to the dealers’ car.

What ensued afterwards turned out to be 10 times more fun to watch than the fireworks.

    Not much to say after that, just a lot of hand gestures until they were in cuffs, a few more police cars and eventually a tow truck.

    Hi Lincoln,

    Hey, why did you take down the posting ability in the Lou Engle, Upton thread?

    thanks
    Kyle

    @Kyle Sainz: The thread was just rehashing the same old arguments ad infinitum, so I closed it down.

    C’mon, man! Surely you could write something exciting about the subsequent arrests! :P

    @CaseyC: Not much to tell, aside from the possibility that they might have seen me and put two and two together.

    If you don’t hear from me for a while, tell my wife and ki– ah forget it.
