Notice most of the run ins have to do with drinking, Without going deep into my many run ins with the MAN lets just say I m half French Canadian and half Irish and really really enjoy the taste of a good beer or 16
Although there was this one time, My dad was a locale fire fighter which meant he was friendly with most of the cops in town,
Well one night after 1 or 2 beers well maybe it was 18 the amount don't really matter much, Here I am walking down the street well it was more like a crawl, They drag my ass in for a little sleep over, Go up to the process room and it's one of my dads best buddies, So the games began, he starts with " Name ? Fred Flinstone
Address ? 29 Bedrock Lane
Fathers name ? Barney
Mothers name ? Wilma
Well this went on for about 5 minutes and finally they tucked me in, gave me a night cap and off to sleep I went,
Next morning they wake me up with the smell of french toast, coffee mmmm. I say hey what time is breakfast ?
reply,, soon as you get your ass home,,, They always get the last laugh,
So I get sprung, Get home as if nothing happened, Life is good,
Where were ya last night? I slept at Bombo's house
Were you guys drinking ? Nope just hung out played cards watched some tube and passed out,
Next day walking down the street with my dad,, being chums telling jokes, the usual bonding stuff,, ahh life is good!!!
We stop off at the doughnut shop to grab a coffee and doughnut, and guess who walks in, Yep you guessed it what the hell was I thinking, Like this would be a good place that the cops would never come into,,
My dad sees his old pal, and I think I m doomed, he strolls over to my dad and I and they start the usuall chit chat, I m sweating like mad, and all of a sudden he belts out" hey guess who came for a visit the other night ?
I m ready to make a run for it...
He shouts friggin Fred Flinstone was in town and boy was he smashed, They start laughing like school girls, so what the hell I jump in, and all of a sudden the cop looks at me and says that Fred really needs to tone it down or Barney will surely kick his ass but good,
I freeze and my dad responds "it will be nothing compared to what Wilma will do to him though"
I m still not sure if he knew it was me
Can't ever forget the night Richard Hurtz was arrested
Thats for another day
