I finally have time to put this on
Ok, So I left for the Region 5 SWAT Conference Friday at 3 PM
Well, this year, it was at Naples (so Good! No long driving or flying). It was at the Double Tree up in Immokalee Road. Well each county got to bring 10 kids. Well 5 of ours were from Immokalee (GHETTO PEOPLE! Since most of their peeps smoke, they need to raise awareness). Well, I got there early, because we had a board meeting. Well I was the social M.C (Master of Ceremonies). The other Emcee was the administrative M.C.
Well, Ok, kids started filling in, dinner was done, and then opening ceremonies and team building activities/networking. That took all night till 11:00 (curfew).
I was working on some stuff the next day, so I did not get to my hotel room till 12:00; when I arrived, Josh (my roommate from Monroe County) came out in his boxers and told me that he was a little busy, and if I could room with someone else. I was a little shock. I was thinking that maybe he was pleasuring himself, drinking or something happens, but it was too late for me to be interrogating. The thing is that everyone was already in their rooms. I did not want to be knocking in people’s rooms at midnight, and what if they were not SWAT people, just normal tourists. So I lucked out and found Oakley’s room and bunked with him. Well it turned out that Josh was getting his freak n with Noelle, from Broward County. WHOA! Josh is third from being chairman of the regional board and is in the statewide Executive Board Committee. If he got caught, that would have been it for his position.
Well, then came Saturday. We had fun in the sessions and then at the beach (go to Naples Daily News website, type SWAT in the search button, and read the most recent article to find out what happened). Well our guest speakers was Yes Duffy from 2002 Road Rules and Making the Band and the recent Mississippi Attorney General (don’t confuse him with THE Michael Moore).
Ok. Saturday Night came. Well guess what, the DJ called us to say that he is stuck in Suwannee County in North Florida and his flight could not make it in time. So we had to have an emergency Board meeting and for some reason they voted since I was the social MC, this was my chance to be social. I was freaking out. They gave me a budget of $50. So Okay, I had my CD’s so I got a laptop, copied all the CDs on media player and started labeling and putting them in order. Then came lighting, I used my stage lighting knowledge to know that when you put a preset at the right numbers, you can get them to flicker, so I did that with the side lamps. And then I went to the nearby Wal-Mart in Immokalee Road. I got those colored 100-watt bulbs and replaced all the old ones. There goes lighting. So for the great screen effects I used Windows Media Player and their beautiful lava lamplike effect. So my DJ-ing was really good. I played a real mix f song and the their was karaoke, dance off, etc… I was known as Master Funk D Rodney D. The dance was really segregated, the white girls were on one side moving and the black girls grinding. Well, the guy to girl ratio was 1 guy to about 7 girls so I was in and out of the of the dance floor from DJ to dancer. Well Every time I went out to DJ, all “my” girls went over to Josh and grind him. They were all over him,; even as a guy I gotta admit he does not look half bad (that’s all you are going to get out of me, if you want to see him yourself, I will be posting pictures soon).Well there is an old SWAT rule: what happens at the Summit stays at the Summit. Well after that, we are still professional with all each other
Well, that was my weekend
