Rough start to the weekend
 

This morning my boss came down to my department, I was out in the shop talking to a couple of my techs, boss wanted to see me in my office ??? ???
Boss: Whats your schedule like today?
Me: My schedule is what you want it to be boss, whatcha need?
Boss: Can you help me do something?
Me: Sure, whatcha got?
Boss:Can you ride over to my house with me, I gotta take my boat to the Marina.
Me: Sure, when.
Boss: Get your driver and meet me in 30 minutes at my car.
Me: You got it boss

So we proceded to hop on his 65 Viking sportfish and run it to Fort Pierce, they hauled it out, pulled the props, pressure washed it.
He just had his 1000 hr service done ($24,000) and now he's getting it ready to fish the Bacardi Invitational Marlin Tourney.

His Son picked us up at the marina, he seemed pretty pumped up about the tourney. He felt like he has a good chance to place in the money because lots of the other guys won't be in shape to fish "cause they will have to much booze and too many hookers"

I was forced to ask what the proper number of hookers should be.
The way I see it is 12 might not be enough, but one could be too many!!!

Franco I got to move to Easy ST. Can't take hearing about this life down there no more , call Guthrie up and tell him I'll caretake his property for a small fee when he is on the road ;D

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

I think I'm really starting to dislike you Franco. >:( :'( ;)

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

"Get your driver"...??...man, the life of a Grand Poobah is truly one to be wished for!!..."oh driver, pull into the next marina...I'd like to purchase another yacht"...

You a DOG... ;) ;D ;D ;D

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Well, the weekend was okay. But I paid for it today. One of the managers that works for me and one of his service advisors went out last night and never made it to work today. My shuttle bus driver got in a verbal fight with a customer and put her off the shuttle bus. Had a plumbing issue after a senior citizen used the restroom, the vent let loose and vented into the customer waiting area - smelled like something died and fell in a sulphur pit. other than that pretty quiet.

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Yeah...those ''real-world'' issues will bring a guy back inna heartbeat... ::)...

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Like herdin' kittens!!!

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Wow Franco, some folks got it ruff ya know? ;D

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Let me see, last night, oh yea Detectives staking out a burglars stolen car to see if he shows to reuse it, he does then runs one of them down with it, takes off, got my guys going to them, second 911 comes in about the accident with trapped victims on the overpass, burglary suspect crashes into tree and bounces into house, bails out on foot carrying bag of likely proceeds from earlier house burglary. Jaws of life needed to remove stuck lady in car, Fire dept. and Rescue sqaud dispatched to cover possible fire with leaking fuel. 911 comes in man not breathing, oops no more cops, time to start prioritizing, thats why they pay me the big bucks ::) Coordinating officers from 4 towns I called for mutual aid in search of large wooded area for Agg Assault suspect, K9 officer from County PD called to come., Fire Dept. Unit dispatched with thermal sensor unit to help in search. Crazy Chinese woman on 911 screaming to me something about her husband beating her, oops no more cops again. Man not breathing is still not breathing, we now have a unattended death investigation, 38 years old :'( One of my officers lost in wooded area , suspect still not found, Chinese man arrested for beating his wife, Woman removed from car but fuel opn ground, DEP notified. Can't raise one of my officers in the woods, where is he, is he hurt, did he find the suspect and it did not go well :-[ My hot dinner is now sitting for 1 hour and not looking good, K9 could not get a good trail after suspect crossed brook. Now coordinating a pattern search for suspect and officer where the Fu@k is he, Old Lieutenant worrying about his men is getting very upset, young patrolmen and patrol Sgt. sensing they better find the Lieutenants man before the sh!t hits the fan. Drunk driver piles into another car, accident with injuries oh oh still no cops , Crazy Chinese womans calls back, man arrested by officers fleeing from her home and does not speak english is her brother, who was chasing her husband, now husband is back and pounding on her bedroom door oh oh no more cops to send , Lost officer surfaces his radio battery died and so did his flash light, walked out thru woods in dark following a distant light. Suspect not found, stolen car towed warrants and reports have to be done, Prosecutors Office called to get approvals for indictable charges, Bordering town calling on radio, they had a home invasion are in pursuit of suspect vehicle approaching our town, he crashes, in our town of course, foot pursuit three suspects, two armed fled different directions, Oh Oh no officers to send, I use my Police Watch Commander magical powers and Abbra Kadabra I provide two officers for the search Oh Sh!t one of them is me ::) two suspects found, guns thrown away, it seems nasty criminal types don't want to point guns at people like nasty Police Lieutenants that will shoot them dead as a stump. New search coordinated for guns, can't leave them to be found by some kid. Only one gun found, second gun still out there, Nasty Police Lieutenant has private conversation with suspect to see if he will cooperate(volunteer) to assist us with search for second gun, gun found.Nasty Police Lieutenants have to make those kind of decisions all the time. Back at headquarters for awhile paperwork is looking like the ninex yellow pages and I know there will be dozens of mistakes I'll have to correct, reheat my dinner in microwave for the third time tonight and eat it. Message on my cell phone, check it it is my 11 year old daughter, their grls basketball team won, she scored four baskets. 911 goes off ??? . Oh yea irrate citizen comes in to make a complaint, seems he called about being locked out of his car in his driveway over an hour ago and was told that we would send someone as soon as we had an officer available. He had found a spare key and got in but never called us because he wanted to see how long a taxpayer would have to wait to get a police officer to leave his donut and coffee break to come and unlock his car door. Seasoned Police Lieutenant smiles and says have a nice day and sends the man away happy.

Message to self arrange some days soon down on South Easy St. FLA 8)

It takes dedication to get in your position Willy. My hats off to you for taking care of the "dirty" work that goes on in this world.

I have a friend that's a bail bondsman and anytime its warm outside, or a holiday, of full moon he's like, "well, I'm probably gonna make some money this weekend cause I know somebody is gonna want to do something stupid."

Thank God for doctors and police officers (and fishermen).

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

I IM'ed Franco and told him keep that key under the mat ;D

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Man i need you Willy I have a crazy neighbor who wants to sue some one so bad he is harressing my whole neighbor hood. Any other ideas would help. maybe flaming poop and flying poop?

How's that Willy ;D

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Skools my professional advise to you is go into your post and modify all that stuff out, you never said it you never thought it You are a man with nothing but love for your brother man and especially your sister man ;D ;) ;D You could not possibly have done anything like that 8) How dare you suggest I did any of those things.

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

I vote poop under the door handle on the Ford. *Nothin like having it under your fingernails!

Or if you could maybe hide a couple of boiled eggs down in his hull somehow to sit for a while. *That should open his sinuses this spring!

Just be careful cause I wouldn't want him returning the favor! *

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Smooth Skools always remember SMOOTH 8)

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Hey Willy, key is coming by FEDEX

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Willy I had to vent lol. hows that?

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

You got it Skools, I need it Franco you won't believe how much :-/ I thinking whether the CEO would fall for the " Franco needs my help with the trolling motor gag" Have my doubts, not much gets by her ;D

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Hey Willy, get a big *** van. have Mj and CB meet you in "joisey", pick up skools, blue, stinkman, and don't forget RAP and come on down. We'll hijack my bosses boat and credit card ( for the fuel ) and tell them all to plant some lips!!!

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Better watch out Franco Buddy, you might have a small school bus comin your way ; And I like that idea of telling them where to plant their lips.

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Florida would never be the same!!!

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

So much talent and great minds in one place at the same time, thats what you meant right 8)

Re: Rough start to the weekend

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

I meant it would be like a 2 year long bachelor party!!

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Nah fit right in ;)

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

The way work has been I could use a 2yr bachelor party
And you might want to check on the boss's boat cause I'm liking the idea of getting Blue CB Stinky MJ Oz Tin Skools and a host of others on a road trip. Would be highly educational :o

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Yo Willy, Oh, you work for a P.D. ?? Me as well. I work for the City of Lewes, De. Just promoted the other month, but see no fun in the promotion. Stuck behind the desk alot checking other officers paper work, doing monthly evaluations, memos to the chief. I'm a road toad, love being in the car and away from the higher up's. I have 16 years in.

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

When we going?? I need notice to get the time off work, I am ready!!

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Hammer I just finished 27 years monday. It was more enjoyable when I only had to make decisions for myself and there was always a Lieutenant calling the shots. I could always pass the buck and leave the decisions to someone else. Well now I have a dozen cowboys and a couple of Sgt.'s I have to worry about everyday and my pension is always in jeopardy :o

MJ why don't you steal a school bus and start south, you'll definetly find a couple of riders as you go, we have to wait for Franco to give us the go ahead, he needs a big boat ;D

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

How many boats will that school bus tow @ one time? *;D

This year is mine and the wifey's 10 yr anniversery. *We honeymooned down in Clearwater beach FL. *She says we're definitely going back down this year for the first time in 10. *Likely somewhere near Disney as we really want to take the kids.

So, I might have to harass the grand Poobah in some way shape or form while I'm down! *It would only be right!

P.S. Will be driving, so might take the boat! Who knows?!?

:P

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

Well you certainly got the trailer for it ;D And if the Grand Poobah can get that big boat we should all go, then you go later with the wifey. I'll drive, just did the trip in 15 hrs 45 min from kissamee to north jersey straight thru over night. Might take a little longer with a school bus, and having to wait for stinky to pack and get his make up on and all ;D

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

HEY BLUE, I'M 90 MINUTES FROM DISNEY

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

I have been wondering hjow I could get away trailing tandam!! This way I can tow the 30' camper and the boat at the same time ::)

Congrats on 10 years, I just passed 25 years of hell, I mean bliss my self!! :o

Re: Rough start to the weekend
 

MJ Just don't forget to unhook the camper before putting the boat in the water!

Yep 10 rocky, uh I mean good years. Hey she likes to boat and fish - what more could a guy ask for!

Franco, 90 minutes - sweet! Not to shabby. I've got to get this thing planned before too aweful long. I need more $$!
