so here is the deal - we go out to show steve's crew ( that's rose and joe ) the fascinating activity that is " ROAD SKIING " - and we had a great time. Although we couldnt find the UBAR ROAD that zach-o had pointed out earlier, so we decided to tear up zach-o's old stomping grounds. Right down his road in front of his house, and yes - we pissed on the mormon's church grounds. So back and forth we went and got three or four good zooms with sparks a-plenty until Joe casually informed us all that :
and the reminder of what happened last time the poh-leese was called on us, the warning " BAIL BAIL BAIL " was quickly thrown about, and we were nowhere to be seen. But this is not the entire story by far - in fact, this isnt exactly the story Im posting to tell. Asides from some car with bright headlights ( which we had thought were rose&joe but upon later talking, confirmed that they had actually taken a right and bailed out on us and that bright-lighted car was following US until I casually parked our car in the driveway of some house and turned it off. ... hah! ) - we got out of there relitavely easily. A little too easy. I had thought we bit it this time for sure.
So we all rendevous at shari's - said " HOT DAMN THAT WAS CLOSE " - said our goodbyes - and went along our each seperate ways. This is where it gets odd.
Me and michael are driving down meridian and there is a car behind us. a police cruiser passes by us in the opposite direction - and michael says " there is a police car " - and in response the car behind us speeds up and passes me on my left. I thought this was steven and jimmoi in the other TZA car - and smiled to myself. Until I realised it was another police cruiser - and that is what Michael was talking about. Two cruisers within 2 seconds of eachother.
michael and I both joked. The police cruiser then, ahead of us, stopped by a stop light to take a left. When we had gotten within a couple yards of the car, it then took an abrupt right turn from one end of the road to the other - very quickly. I was taken off guard ... and slowed down none-the-less. Looking out the right window we saw something which seemed to be two police cruisers had had a collision of some sorts. Either that or one of them just exploded for no apparent reason. One car we couldnt see well, but the obvious damage to one police cruiser included an adjar and dis-connected rear door, and a messed up trunk. the car which took the abrupt right turn slowly approached the scene, and there was my car driving right by the whole mess.
the thing is. this was on my right side.
what is on the right side you ask?
well it's yellow. and it stands out on my big red car.
and it says but one thing :
now this may seem to be nothing big. whoop-de-shit, a police cruiser got thrashed. But upon thinking further on the matter, I had come to the idea that maybe the reason we " got off so easily " was because ... well ... maybe in response to such a phone call - being they've had such " disturbances " before and not pulled anyone in - quickly rushed to the scene. Because the ironic thing about the whole episode was they were thrashed just one road down, connected to the road we were skiing down, and the road I almost drove down to " escape " from - but we had thought we lost Joe and Rose. So we turned around and went the opposite way. Had we but gone the other way ... funzo.
So was it our fault? Did we cause a police cruiser accident? I damn well think we did. You know why?
because it's a better story that way.
