Bluesub, no, opening a can of worms is always a good idea. Then all the resident males will just go fishing and leave us alone.

Oh yeahhhh, speaking of males! My dad is coming to visit me!

Apparently I have an aunt in Arkansas (???) and so he'll fly into Little Rock and then drive here to see one of my performances on the 20th. I can't believe it!

Sadly, it got to the point where all the local cops knew
my older brother and me on a first name basis. After a while
they even quit asking for our license.

I don't know why.

Last time---and this was just a few years ago-- I was out in town
playing with the 65 Barracuda. Right off the dragstrip.

All lettered up, had my name on the window.

They turned the red lights on and I did what came naturally...

I ran.

Silly cops beat me to my house.


Spook....who is sometimes a slow learner.

... We take advice from you why?!?!

Sgt. Reed, the man who runs the JROTC program I'm in, told us a funny story about his highschool days.
He decided it would be funny to steal an outhouse, hitch it to the back of his pickup truck, pour gasoline on it, set it on fire, and drag it though the streets and have a game of tag with the cops. Interestingly enough, the cops didn't think it was funny.

We sure did, though!

I just realized I have never gotten a speeding ticket! Of course they never could catch me either.

We are too.

No offense intended.

Yet. You don't drive yet! Or you've stopped because you are obscenely old, but somehow I doubt that, because the only obscenely old people I know are on the Council of Geezers.

The word is ELDERS Tanichca.

Elders...not Geezers.

On the bright side, now I get a senior discount on my tickets...


Spook...anybody wanta ride with me?

Tani, Tani! This is BYC! Please watch your language, obscenity is not permitted! A body might be absurdly old, ridiculously old, intolerably old, outrageously old, you get the picture, but one mustn't be obscenely old here!


But no, thanks, Spook. I have several neighbors that are Cops, and nice as they are, I'd rather not be meeting them in their official capacity (have I mentioned that some of the local pursuit vehicles are Mustangs?)
