I was driving. First mistake. And I didn't know where I was going, exactly, and it was getting closer and closer to concert time, and we still weren't there. And then I saw this map/diagram thing sort of off to the side kind of, so I WHIPPED the car over to it, but I still could not make it out (it was dark and my headlights weren't hitting it) and so.... 2nd mistake. I got out of the car to look closer, and apparently that not only is one the stupidist things I've ever done, but also illegal. So then a police car w/ lights and all car pulls up (to the utter glee of my children) and I suppose I looked distressed enough (and STUPID enough) that he felt sorry for me. I told him I had a car full of screaming kids and we were about to miss Barney and I didn't know where I was or how to get there. He just looked at me and said, "Follow me." He took me INTO the parking lot of the place. SO NICE. -- Bud Lovers Anonymous

BTW, we made it on time. But here's a question that came up. If a policeman says follow me, and he is going over the speed limit. Are YOU supposed to got over the speed limit, too? LOL! I was thinking. Oh great. Now when we stop, he's going to give me 800 traffic tickets. He just flashed his lights and waved. I bet he had kids. -- Luoodles, 23:31:02 05/28/01 Mon

[> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> [> LOLOLOL!!! What a story! And I know exactly what you mean...they're a bunch of HYPOCRITES I tell ya! There's a street in my city where you aren't supposed to block the driveway on the side, so ya gotta wait for the light change behind this sign...and it's REALLY close to a police station too! But I've NEVER seen a cop follow the BIG signs...EVER! LOL! -- Canrane, 18:16:55 05/29/01 Tue
