hey hey hey sorry for the long absence... but what can i say i have been busy.... well kind of i will tell you the exciting thing and then leave out the random oddities. if you read only one thing just read that last few paragraphs. well me and my buddy mat joined up with the police who are running a program that is like a mini police academy and they teach you stuff and you can help on details.... but wait before i go any further this is all true... i am not telling a story. well the very first day as we were walking in a group of three guys our age were running out and we knew one of the guys and he told us to follow him. so we did. we ended up driving to a house and our purpose there was to find a 75 year old lady with dimencia. she left her house at 6:30 in the morning and no one had seen her since. it was 10: 00 and me and matt along with the 10 other guys there had to fan out and search ditches, creeks, backyards and ponds looking for her. she was finally found at 11:48 not by me and matt but it was still exciting. the last time we went.... on monday. us guys had to help out an actual police academy with training... we had to put them into situations and they had to react. there were four groups of five guys who had to go through four stations. me and mats station consisted of two trucks that had hit head on. the cops had to question us and all that jazz. me and mat were only supposed to do the basics... tell them where we lived ect... but mat decided to take it a step further when he started yelling at me. .. a cop had to stand between us to stop us from getting into a fight. that was group 1 group 2. these guys came in and did there job in reletively the same manner only this time i decided to spice things up a bit. i noticed in the back of my truck was a baseball bat and after mat started yelling at me again... i calmly walked up to my truck, grabbed the bat and started walking up to mats truck. the cops made a wall and unbuckled their holsters. ( they had fake guns but we had to play along). they told me to drop it and get on my knees. i did it and they came up behind me and handcuffed me.... that was cool. group 3. again started out the same way but mat made a dash for me like he was going to break my nose and the cops grabbed him and while they were handcuffing him i made a dash for the truck, grabbed the bat and ran at the recently handcuffed mat. to which i was then pile drived into the hood of my truck and handcuffed. group 4. a guy from group three gave me his gun and i was supposed to use it on this group.... which i did. they asked me to get out of my truck.... i did. the two cops then asked for my ID..... i gave it to them. and while they were reading my ID i then pulled the gun from my waist band and pow pow pow. they laughed ... said lets start over and when i got out of the truck a second time they were pretty quick to get my gun. in the end we all had a good laugh. and they were all cool guys who answered a lot of our questions. so thats it................. |
