Where's that "die thread die" graphic when you need it.

Come on Jody, rent "outfoxed" it would make a substantial discussion thread to hear you defend Fox after seeing it (and I"m sure you would) but at least it we'd have 40 posts of dialog before some lefty or rightie degenerated the thread into the muck of New Orleans Toxic Sludge (caused by both the lefty locals and rightie whitie fema)

Peace

Happy cop story -

I left dog training early yesterday because it suddenly occurred to me that the $300 dry cleaning I'd picked up last week and had gone missing was likely at the car laundromat. I freaked out and hoped to get there ASAP (even though it was nearly a week that I'dleft it there) so I was driving down the stretch of highway Jody keeps warning me about stressing it.

There's a section where it goes from 55 to 35 and it's alittle early for my logical taste, but I know cops hang out there and I am good, but this time I am stressing and I see the cop and toss my head back "Oh no!"

As I go through the stop sign, I get the lights. I pull over in a dirt lot, go to look for my registration and insurance and OH NO!! I also left my CD case at the landromat with the other stuff, and that's where I keep it.

Bad to worse!

The cop comes up looking happy and says something nice like, "You're already worked up!" And I go, "Look, all I can give you is my license. you will not believe the bad string of luck I've had."

He asks me where I was working and I told him dog training and he looks in the back and sees leashes and collars and obviously I'm not lying.

"So you're going back to the place to get your dry cleaning and registration?"

"Yeah, I am. It's ridiculous."

"You're not lying."

"How could I? It's too stupid."

"Okay, behave, you know I'm there."

"Yeah, I do. You'll never stop me again, i promise."

Very cool of him. Very cool. BTW, nothing in lost and found, so it was/is still a crappy situation, but the cop incident made me happy.

Happy happy, people!

I second Karl's suggestion of renting OutFoxed. Or, you could show up next Thurs night from 6-8 and watch it with my class. I show it to all my classes for discussion purposes. I love teaching a class on ethics.
