My thing is, people should know what they are talking about before they open their mouths.
The part about you not holding anything against me because I'm not white, that's ok, I like it better that way.

Well I don't always play well with others. I found that often times others are on the take for what I labored and worked for. They tend to find reasons why I should give away my labor, or do other things like take discounts on my work, and then add 600% to a retail price, giving the impression I am a bit more proud of my work than is reality.
I know about cops. They are people who bleed red blood just like me.
Back in the day I used to ride motorcycles with cops, and pass joints while riding with them. Since they are people they do what people do. Sometimes they even break the law. But me, I just take them for what and who they are, and if we agree we get along, and if we don't we just don't. I just tell it as I see it. I ask for no quarter, never took any, and might not give any.
So far I haven't held up a dress for you to try on
That's good right?

Oh and I have even pulled a bunch of cops out of the ditch in winter. They are stuck and I happen on, since I don't get a radio, and just do what do. I am the one who lays in the snow, to chain up and twich them out. They stay toasty warm and clean. Assistance can come in strange packages. I also assist peasants such as myself.
I have never once left a stranded motorist in my life, and with out new parts I get about 80% back moving, atleast well enough to get to a shop.
Up here in NH there isn't anything like 24 hour service yet. Up here calling the cops means if they will come at all it's going to be time measured in hours even if they come right now fast.
Once on a Dec 24th after a party my truck broke down in a blizzard. I went knocking on a door, was greeted by a old man with a shot gun. He asked thru the locked door what I wanted. I asked him to call the cops. With that he threw the door open and said you call the cops yourself! Handed me his phone, and in about 1 hour the cops showed up, and I got my Bride and me a ride up the mountain. The cop whined the whole way up there too, but he did get us home.
Next day, I went thru my old junk and found a new pick up for the truck's distributor got a ride and drove it home. I got all wet and dirty doing that too.
Oh maybe you in particular would like this tail and I got a few pics, but not all I wanted.
August 1st 09 pm 89 degrees Ridin south bound on NH Rt 16 a Jeep cherokee hit a moose. I was about 100 feet back, doing 45 MPH.
The jeep driver never saw the moose, but that moose stopped that jeep right now fast. BAM I was on the brakes hard already even before the jeep hit the moose, because in the dark I saw what appeared to be a flock of crows taking flight. There is no such thing as crows taking flight after dark, and so I knew it was either a Moose or a bear crossing the road. I laid down a measured 85.5 feet of rubber with both tires on the bike and ran smack into that jeep the instant the moose rolled off what was let of the grill, hood and windshield. When the rear bumper came down the bike was trapped straight up.
I got my Bride off the bike by yelling, but my BP was a tad up there, and she was slow to dismount because she was busy trying to decide if she was on this side of the grass or the other side. I was worried a car would kill us all coming around Pequaket Corner where we were.
A car did come and put on it's 4 ways. They called the cops too.
I got the driver and the passanger out, they were Hispanic. They were also alive, which bis something of a mirical in the first place and only the driver has a tiny cut not even worthy of a band aid. This just doesn't happen.
When you hit a bull moose at 45 MPH the moose goes up into the windshield. The pillars fold in and the glass ends up in bit on your lap. The roof caves in to the dash. This time the jeep's air bags failed, which \is a very good thing when you hit a moose. When the air bags work they blow the occupants back into the crushed rook which kills them by breaking their necks.
Before the cops got there more people came, and me and 5 more guys peeled my bike out from under the bumper, and I had the bike parked on the roiad side by the time the cops got there.
When they came I showed them where the moose had dragged itself too. I had a 22 mag in my pocket, but didn't want to risk a wild crazy moose, betting a 22 would do the trick. The cops didn't belive they had the right wreck and after dispacting the moose went roaring up Rt 16 North bound looking for any other wreck.
I guess they were looking for that special 2 for one night, but they found no other wreck and were jusy baffeled over 2 riders and 2 drivers all still well and very much alive.
They called for a wrecker for the jeep, someone loaned me a claw hammer to pull my fender off the front tire, and the cops left the Hispanics to decide where to go, not planning to take them anywhere really.
I talked the cops into giving these guys a ride to my place, and they did that much, and followed me home. Out here in the boonies is the last place in night yu want to be left on a road side.
I got a pic of the rubber, and the moose, but not the jeep and I went looking. The cops told me a few places the jeep might be, but it wasn't at any of them, so I never did get the pics of the jeep I wanted for this tale. If you want the link to the moose you sure can have it. Now I don't know if I got a run around or not, but I felt like I did.
It was me who made sure the Hispanic guys were safe. One spoke no English the other very broken English, but my Bride speaks some Spanish. Coffee and foods are universal right?
