8 police cars down the street and a chopper overhead
I just got home a few minutes ago. As I was to turn onto my street, roaring past me went 5 City of Tampa cruisers,2 unmarked units and one of their new "stealth" SUV's (no lights, no nothing...it's even silver and a Dodge). They stopped about 3/4 of a mile down the street. There's a chopper overhead now, too.

Methinks that something is afoot. I know that I didn't do it, either.

it's kinda creepy. Maybe it's a plot to get neighbors to turn on each other. :tinfoilhat:

10. Bail call?
Pfft...that's what Paul is for. He's a very litigious young man.

14. My son just read this over my shoulder
Then he yelled, "There's an ambush!" and went back to snacking on Kettle Chips as if nothing happened.

I think maybe he knows something. :tinfoilhat:

15. Jersey, right?
Floating mob informants probably trumped the story.

We've got Rhonda Storms, strip clubs and sports teams. Big police involvement stuff normally shows up. Maybe tomorrow...
