Krip 2 #1 July 10, 2013 My wife and I just got checked out by a Neighborhood watch dude in broad daylight. I've been checked out by the police lots of times. In lots of places but its been 40 years since a neighborhood association swooped down on us. The first time was sort of understandable. No big deal. Today was just so goofy I couldn't keep a straight face while talking with the dude. Small island 5 miles from our house, one way in and out. Our park board bought a very nice piece of property with state funds and the folks that live on the Island aka the golden ghetto aren't happy that anyone from outside can use the park . The island people were so concerned about the very limited parking people parking on the street due to limited parking etc etc. They tried to restrict access by kayak. Today was just a scouting trip to get the lay of the land. No problem we found the location of the secret off street parking lot. Now our puppies get to go swimming If the sun ever comes out again The neighborhood, watch association. There shouldn't be a problem until they get concerned about the liability of someone walking from the parking lot along the road and the potential of a pedestrianOne Jump Wonder Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And what, precisely, was this guy going to do if he didn't like what he saw? Thats exactly my thought, I'm not doing anything illegal, its broad daylight, etc etc. All he can do is try and intimidate people by giving them the stink eye. And record their plate number for time, date, and remind them about the no parking signs.I don't give a shit.We were talking to the resident caretaker When the dude walks up and introduces himself as the neighood watch dude. I couldn't help my self as we were shaking hands i asked him if he belonged to the George Z national neighborhood watch association. Asked him to lift his shirt up. the wife told me when she saw the dude lift the right side of his shirt up she thought I was. The association had hired a off duty sheriff for night patrol, $50 hr but now he's gone now and took his in laws with him. That man was a worst case no win situation for anyone that ran into the neighborhood assoc after darkOne Jump Wonder Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rodriguez Hi pony up You buying a round for your jump buds if its wasn't my first and I can prove it with a witness. FWIW I'm a old man so I've seen my fair share of shit, and I'm a nice guy little person and don't go looking for trouble. Shit happens. Quote Having a witness is one of the advantages of being with the same person for 40 yrs. FWIW The F word isn't in my vocabulary, Jump long enough and you won't even be able to say it away from the dz. But in this situation it is true. Trust me I wouldn't lie to you.

Krip 2 #7 July 11, 2013 turtlespeed Good thing you didn't have any Skittles, or it could have been bad. Hi turtle No sweat I had 250 lbs of dogs with me, and the boss. I did my homework before I went there. No big deal. Btw we almost bought a house on the island, cheap seats no water view, no view of Mt Ranier, just a address on the island with a newer house located so close to the road the seller had to erect a privacy fence 10 ft outside their front window for some piece and quiet. Even if I lived on the island, I would be getting stopped by the neighborhood watch people. I don't have a clue why I get profiledI don't need any skittles or ice tea, to get profiled, we met at the boogie at LP I was not dressing down to go to a boogie thats me 24/7. BTW my wife is still whining because she didn't get to see your prince, at LP and you told her you would show it to her. No sweat got to give the women something to look fwd to.You want me to do what where. SorryBe well turtle enjoyed hanging around the camp fire with you. I'm still LMAO. R But meeting a LEO moonlighting for the neighborhood watch association wearing his uniform and driving his work car. Thats not a wanna be LEO he was the real deal. Dogs no problem for a LEO, dead dogs even off duty he gets on the rasio instant back upOne Jump Wonder Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
