It was so freaking weird that... trust me... that's pretty much how the conversation went.

The best part was telling it to my wife. I got to the part where it was a good-looking brunette and she interrupted with a, "And how good-looking was she?"

Which made me laugh and sigh all at the same time. If that's possible.

"Well, not NEARLY as good-looking as you, Honey! ...but then..."
"Uh-huh."
<followed by 5 minutes of haiku, limericks and Shakespearean poetry professing the Supreme Beauty of my Wife> Which made her laugh.

Which is pretty much how I've been able to stay married for 16 years, now.

I'm cracking up reading this thread. Ravirn, you are a professional storyteller and great sweet talker.

*The_Blur* · 04-22-2010, 10:11 PM

Captain Awesome · 04-22-2010, 10:13 PM

If that were me the ocfficer probably would have thrown me in jail! I'm so misunderstood!

Wow that is too cool, I wish I had onstar, way to fight the power man haha (no offense intended toward any police here, just a joke)

noisemker · 04-22-2010, 10:22 PM

OnStar...please connect me to police....

Police, your officer is being a turd...

This happens ALL of the time in Alabama. The police officer notices a muscle car, presumes someone who enjoys speeding is driving, and tailgates the muscle car in hopes that it will lead to a ticket. That happened to me several years ago in Birmingham, in my 1998 Camaro; when I pointed to the speed limit sign, 25mph in a school zone, he took the next turn. This is just what we, as Camaro drivers, need to expect. I love that OnStar helped with the problem; 1998 Camaros didn't have OnStar.

v6sonoma · 04-22-2010, 11:03 PM

If it wasn't the Camaro I would say jack up on the brakes so hard she ends up sitting in your back seat, but thats just me.

rad · 04-22-2010, 11:09 PM

ROFLMAO. Priceless.

Inferno2SS · 04-22-2010, 11:12 PM

Sounds a bit like Fatal Attraction to me.

Score one for the Wife, I think she is 100% correct some young cop, one of Calgary's finest, trying to goad you into speeding. I mean lets be honest in comparison to the Charger the Camaro looks to fast standing still.

jackfanta82 · 04-22-2010, 11:45 PM

she liked your car a little to much

*TAG UR IT* · 04-22-2010, 11:47 PM
