EWolfe Posted December 13, 2006 Posted December 13, 2006 I was getting getting some fuel last night at a local mart, and I saw a cop get into her car and drive away, so when I paid, naturally I asked the woman what happened. Some guy came in and got a 6-pack of beer and a pack of smokes. He tried his debit card, didn't work, then a credit card to no avail. He told the woman he had to call his bank and would be back in a minute. When he came back in, he handed her a piece of paper, both cards and his license and said: " Here's my drivers license and my cards. I am taking this beer and these cigarettes. That (pointing to the piece of paper) is where I will be. Please call the police in 5 minutes, and give them all of that. It is the only way I can get clean." As he left, she wished him a merry christmas, waited 5 minutes and made the call. I was talking to a Public Defender at the pub this evening, and he immediately asked me if the guy was fat. I said I didn't know, why? A few years ago, some guy robbed a bank with the finger-in-the-jacket-pocket trick, walked two blocks, put the money in a planter, walked another block, and waited. Same deal - needed to get clean, last option. He thought it was the same guy, as he had only been out 4 months Quote

EWolfe Posted December 13, 2006 Author Posted December 13, 2006 What sucks is taxpayers pay over $50,000 a year to "reform" this guy. You are right, though.Not the best atmosphere for recovery. I guess desperate times call for desperate measures. Quote
