Once again ol' Gustav had to come to the rescue of a fellow A2Ker. Not that I mind helping out, mind you, it's just that it seems like I'm the only one who's ever there in time of need. Let's have a little help here, people!
I'm out 300.00 (the cost of bail) plus the cost of gasoline and the wear and tear on my pickup truck.
I suppose you're wondering just what the hell I'm talking about, so I reckon I better explain the situation.
Earlier in the day, I needed some chewing gum and shotgun shells, so I headed to the store to make a purchase.
On the way back home I heard sirens and saw a whole bunch of cop cars headed out toward Pleasant Acres Trailer Park. I'm normally not an inquisitive kind of guy, but I knew Slappy Doo Hoo lived out there and I thought he might of gotten himself into a little trouble again.
So I turned around and headed toward the sirens. Sure enough, they were at Slappy's house. As I pulled up they were leading him away in handcuffs.
Fortunately I had my camera with me and took a quick picture in case you people didn't believe Slappy was arrested...
I talked with one of the cops and he told me Slappy's been selling cars that he claims "were only driven to church on Sundays by a little old lady" and it turns out they were rental cars he purchased from his brother, Billy Bob Doo Hoo, who owns Doo Hoo Rentals, out on Highway 65.
So, I bailed Slappy out of jail. He's over at my house right now, in the other room drinking a beer and crying his eyes out. I've been trying to console him and even told him I would attend his trial as a character witness.
That didn't seem to help much.
Well, now you know the story. Maybe next time one of you could step to the plate. I only have so much money and even though most of you think I'm a saint.... I do have my dark side.
Stumble It!
