(no subject)
So last night, the boys and I went out to go catch a late showing of
Kong... nada. Went to Denny's and had coffee. Then, we hit up the
Shell station where Brandon won another Big Spin ticket, but they sent
us to another shell to redeem it (we were bored... it was like 130 in
the morning) So, before scratching it, we decided to go look at
Brandon's dream car while he scratched the ticket, so that if he won,
he would buy it. (it's a new Dodge Charger Daytona at the dodge
dealership in pville) So, on the way there, i was driving as crazy as
ever (I hit 110 in the Caddy... just random bull) and we talked about
how I wanted to become an actual stunt driver. I DO have lots of
experience doing stupid crap :-D. So, as we make the U-turn in front
of the dealership, i decided to try a J-turn. For those of you that
don't know what that is, it is basically a U-Turn, but the back tires
are skidding around. So, i start the turn, slam the E-brake, and the
car rotates around partially. I was not satisfied, so I do another
J-Turn. A little better, but still not awesome. I do a third one and
i am finally fulfilled. Full rotation, full lane change. Perfect. We
pull over and get out of the car at the dealership. I step onto the
curb, and look up, as a black and white pulls onto the road I was just
on. He proceeds up the street, past me, speeding down the wrong side
of the road. (there is a divider, which he omitted to obey) He flips
around, hits the lights, i thought I was screwed. He gets out "What
the HELL are were doing? You were all over the road. What are you
doing here?"
"Uh, just checking out the sticker prices, officer." Shit. Misdemeanor. Car towed. License suspended. Me, strangled, drawn, and quartered by Dad.
"Did you forget to notice that you were sliding all over the road?" "Give me your license." He was fuming. He radioed in my plates, and my license number. As he looks in the car, he asks "what were you up to on the road?"
Think quick. How do i admit guilt without expressly admitting guilt... "just being stupid, officer." Good Ryan. Bow down to the man, help him cool off.
He visually inspects the car. "What's in the bag?"
I had no idea what bag he was talking about. If you know my dad, you know that it could easily be tools, a gift, or his sidearm. Bad. I respond, "Honestly, this is my Dad's car, I have no idea what is in the bag, officer." Kiss ass while blaming someone else. YESS.
"Well you don't mind if I look, do you?" as he reaches for the door.
"No officer." I walk toward him with keys in hand to unlock the door.
"STEP BACK." as he opens the door.
"Sorry, i thought the door was locked." Ryan, you are a moron. Are you asking for a reason for this six foot five pissed off officer to beat your ass and take you to jail? So, I cower back to the curb. He picks up the Target bag, and theres nothing inside. I assume he thought i had drugs in it.
"Now, tell me your record. Omit NOTHING." the officer orders me.
"Uhhh, I disobeyed a traffic control device in San Luis Obispo a few months ago." Little did he know that the traffic control device was a speed limit sign. Im glad the last cop let me go with that, or else I would be in jain right now. "and a little over a year ago I took trafic school for a speeding ticket in Fresno." Hope that wasn't too much. If he knew that I had had a total of two speeding tickets, a fix-it ticket on the corvette, one count for driving w/o proper licensing, insurance, registration, or helmiting, i have a feeling that id have been a little screwed.
He stops... flicks my license in his hands while he decides on what to do with my ass. I am in shock. No fear, some adrenaline, I do not know why, but it isnt hitting me.
"Allright, I am going to let you off with a warning, but slow your ass down, and stop peeling out!"
Sigh. Wait a sec... stop peeling out? HE thought that I was just taking the corner too fast! HE had no idea that I did it intentionally THREE TIMES!
Yet another reason that I should be in jain AGAIN!
