Following up

Ok, i took care of all the personal emails last night and today, so a little bit of work here now. I'll get to the flying car part of the story in a minute. Last wednesday, i stopped by the eagle's club to have a drink after playing golf, when these two scuzzy looking guys come in with an anorexic, redheaded, hippie-type chic. she was decent looking, and she looked clean, but i still didn't hit on her when she talked to me. i was not afraid her scuzzy friends would beat me up, i was more afraid they had already been touching her. I didn't want to touch her, so i went home alone. again. but not until after i told the bartender that i over heard them mention her apartment number and that i thought they might be cooking meth. i was hoping she would call the cops on them. just for fun.

On thursday night, i'm at the eagles club again, setting up equipment since we were playing there on friday night. we did a sound check for about an hour, practiced a few new songs we are working on, and this guy comes walking up to the other side of the stage from me. i lean over and tell carl "that's one of the hippie dudes from last night, and he's wearing the same clothes!". (man am i glad i stayed away from that hippie chic) he proceded to talk to each of us, shake our hands, and say that he is a guitar tech and if we ever need anything worked on, just let him know. he did seem knowledgeable about guitars. this was at 9:30pm

It's friday night, and we are at the eagles club getting tuned up (the guitars, not us) when the drummer, jerry, shows up and says "you know that hippie guy from last night, he jumped his grandma's car on top of the highland park school!". there is a 45° corner in front of this school, and apparently he forgot to turn. at 100 mph. he hits the bank along the sidewalk in front of the school, and puts his grandma's ford explorer into low orbit. he was still 15ft off of the ground when he hit the school building 90ft away. (read the news article in my previous post). he was checked for a possible neck injury, then read his rights by the boys in blue. i'm sure he will get out of jail eventually.

I will try to get to some questions later, right now i have to go bowl.

Hey, I wish you wouldn't talk about my wife that way. She has feelings.
