This is really a sad story except for the bewildering last line.
A few days ago a woman near Bakersfield was found shot and a hunt for her son was initiated. They had a description of his car and the cops were pretty sure he was heading for Las Vegas. After a couple of hours, the car was found parked alongside I 15 near the Nevada state line. For some reason a "high risk stop" was ordered and officers from four or five jurisdictions showed up. Shooting (described as from all personnel involved) followed and the highway was closed for 19 hours. This road carries around 45,000 vehicles per day and many had to spend the night with no input from the highway patrol. Several families were trapped and many ran out of gas. Not unexpectedly, follow-up details have been hard to find except that: "With the vehicle surrounded, the suspect shot himself and officers returned fire." |
That happened at the house across the street from ours, about 15-ish years ago. Dude was having a mental health crisis and threatening suicide (which apparently was common for him), wife was out and called the cops to check on him. A beat officer knocked on the door and a single shot was fired.
12 hours, 1 SWAT team, and an evacuated street later, they finally stormed the house to find that the one shot had been the guy committing suicide. He hadn't even known it was a cop at the door. |
A young American man moves to the Shetland Isles. Unbeknownst to him, the Shetland peoples are quite reserved, and no-one visits him for three months.
One stormy night, there's a loud knock at the door. He opens the door to the sight of a huge, fiery-haired man with a thick beard. With an accent equally as thick, the visitor says, "I've come to invite ye to a party." "Wonderful," says the American, "I'd love to go!" "I must warn ye, lad. The drinks will be flowin' aplenty." "That's no problem, I've been known to enjoy a strong scotch now and again," replies the American. "They'll likely be a fight too," says the bearded man. "Where there's drinkin' and dancin' there's always a fight." "I'm not worried, I was middleweight champion in boxing back in the navy. I'm sure I can hold my own." "Alright, lad. But one last thing. There's likely to be sex involved too. Hairy-arsed, drunken sex." The American smirks. "Well, after being alone for so many months, that's not out of the question either. One question though: what should I wear?" The big man chuckles and replies, "Ah, come as you are, it's just gonna be you and me." |
