  • BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE

    Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over the next few weekends BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.

Only a person in Wisconsin could think of this.

From the state where drunk driving is considered a sport, comes this true story. Recently a routine police patrol parked outside a bar in Wisconsin, after last call the officer noticed a man leaving the bar so apparently intoxicated that he could barely walk.

The man stumbled around the parking lot for a few minutes, with the officer quietly observing. After what seemed an eternity in which he tried his keys on five different vehicles, the man managed to find his car and fall into it. He sat there for a few minutes as a number of other
patrons left the bar and drove off.

Finally he started the car, switched the wipers on and off--it was a fine, dry summer night--,flicked the blinkers on and off a couple of times, honked the horn and then switched on the lights. He moved the vehicle forward a few inches, reversed a little and then remained still for a few more minutes as some more of the other patrons' vehicles left. At last, when his was the only car left in the parking lot, he pulled out and drove slowly down the road.

The police officer, having waited patiently all this time, now started up his patrol car, put on the flashing lights, promptly pulled the man over and administered a breathalyzer test. To his amazement, the breathalyzer indicated no evidence that the man had consumed any alcohol at all!

Dumbfounded, the officer said, I'll have to ask you to accompany me to the sherriffs office. This breathalyzer equipment must be broken."

"I doubt it," said the truly proud non-drinker. "Tonight I'm the designated decoy."

If people only put this much thought and effort into doing the RIGHT thing, which in this case is to not drink and drive in the first place, the world would be a much better place.

Point well made Kevin. I made it out of 10 years of driving drunk with only one solo crash with tree and no DUIs or arrests that I have now stopped driving after even 1 drink. It would have been great to try back in the day though.

I wouldn't be surprised. I once knew a lady who put her poodle in the microwave oven to dry it. I also heard if you flash you headlights at a car on halloween they might be gangbangers and they will come back and kill you.
