PROPS to my coolass instructor, Mauro, and awesome videographer Kevin (who, instead of turning around to see behind him, decides do a sick flip upside down while parachuting). If I knew how to compress vids better, I'd upload the entire vid. mad sweet editting.

every fisherman has a great story about the one that got away. this is mine:

hooked a huge motherfuka.
it yanked back angrily.
it swam away.
...with my fishing rod.

the end.

so i was watching the TV show Cops. This episode they were following the NYPD. These were their calls to duty:

call for Domestic Disturbance:
5-6 cops show up in an apartment on the third floor. The cop with the camera man, short of breath from walking 3 floors of stairs, is greeted by other cops already on scene, and is told by the apartment dwellers, pointing to a closed door "we locked him in there. we didn't want him trying to run out. we don't know what to do now"
It's then revealed to us that there is a rat in the bathroom
Then one cop says to the other, "They said they don't care what it takes just get it rid of it"

So the 5-6 cops there, racking their brains, decide to take an axe to the door, and destroy it by chopping out a hole in the middle of it, thru which they can survey the situation in the bathroom (a rat running around). They then reach thru the hole in the door with a stick with a loop of rope at the end of it (used for noosing crocodiles, wild dogs, tigers, and other large game), to try to poke(?) at the rat. Because for damn sure, they weren't gonna CATCH a fast lil rat with a stick and a rope.
Afterwards, they smarten up and decide to press a foot high wire barrier against the door frame while they open the door to prevent the rat from escaping. Then it was a you-had-to-be-there moment, when the cop pulls out a gun and tries to aim it at a fast running rat from outside the door. The next shot was of a cop standing on top of a toilet, trying to shoot down at the rat. only then was i sure that it really was a tranquilizer gun and not a 9mm.

Call 2: Public Assistance
The camera man goes into another apartment where 5 cops were present, along with another form of wildlife. This time a bat. The weapon of choice this time? A paper bag. They were gonna catch a flying bat... with a paper bag. Then a cop suggests blasting it with CO2 claiming that it will drop down unconscious... as if it was chloroform. The obvious result? Yes, the bat takes off the moment they spray the CO2 and proceeds to fly around the apartment. As the camera chases the bat around, we see the main cop, flail helplessly trying to catch the bat in the paper bag, and we also get a glimpse of the backup cops behind the main one.... another you-had-to-be-there moment, where one had a tennis racket in hand, in ready stance, and another behind him with a baseball bat. beautiful.

the camera cuts, and we see they finally get the bat trapped under a blanket on the sofa, where they proceed to try to squeeze the bat out, instead of just tying up the blanket and releasing it out the window. Through unnecessary effort, they finally get the bat to the edge of the blanket, where the cop grabs it by his hand, and releases it in the middle of the street, and exclaims "we just released the bat. it's probably going to fly into another window in 10 minutes and we'll be back into another apartment to get it out."

The NYPD at their best....

"I'm trying to think of all my memories of you, and for some reason the one that stands out the most is when you fell asleep under the desk in physics last year..."

"...And then there's AP Art History where you slept in a diff. place everyday..."
-written in my high school yearbook

so the other day, walkin along upper manhattan, we ran into some familiar faces. 5 of em, and so we did the, "hey watsup, how u doing, so where u going to school now? blah blah blah" the useless-don't-really-give-a-shit-cuz-i-never-talked-to-you-in-my-6-years-of-high- school-but-just-for-the-sake-of-bumping-into-you bullshit, and i realized i didn't remember what the names of 4 of them were. hence, glancing through the yearbook now.

and i realize now that, wow. my school had so many good looking girls. too bad knowing their personalities fucked it up for many of them. and also what 3 years of college can do to some.

hahaha high school, when it wasn't bad, it wasn't good either......nope, it was awesome. too bad it was bad too often
