Separated at birth? Or just the bar? One thing I learned in college... Never leave a man behind. I got left behind once; wandered out blitz, woke up with a cop's flashlight in my face as I lay passed out in front of the town WWII memorial. Yeah, made it half way to the dorm, wandered off course and lay where I fell in 40 degree weather. Fun times.

Better than the time I was DD and driving three friends home. Smelled beer and turned around because I told them not to bring that cup in my car. Sure enough, she spilled it on me and I swerved... Yep then the blue lights came on behind me. Try explaining while drenched in beer and reeking of it, while chewing gum that you honestly weren't drinking. Can't blame him for that one had to take the field sobriety test and the whole nine yards... funny thing was it was the same cop. You know he remembered me.

I saw a story on Rip on CNN, his lawyer said he thought he was in his home and not a bank. This begs the questions; one why break a window to get in you house and two, why go in with a pistol. I can just imagine the police coming in and Torn's there trying to open the vault... "addahm nuh schtainless Schteel appliancesh. Hey, fellas! wanna beer? Help me get thish bish open and wul avva couple more. Wha? I don wanna get onna floor. Whaddaya gay?"
