A little weekend humour.....for my friends from the Rock and RCMP members!
How manyof our Officers would find the humour in this e-mail! After all, I am sure hewas sitting there laughing at this guy the entire time.
Recently,during a routine patrol, an RCMP patrolman parked down the street outside aLegion Hall just off the main in Gander NF, CANADA
Afterlast call, the officer observed a man leaving the Legion Hall. The gentlemanwas so intoxicated that he could barely walk. He then stumbled around theparking lot for a few minutes, with the officer quietly observing. After whatseemed an eternity and trying his keys on five different vehicles, the manmanaged to find his car, which he fell into.
He satthere for a few minutes and then threw a hook and line out the window andseemed to be trying to catch a fish.. A number of other patrons paid noattention to this crazy drunk asthey left the bar and drove off.
Finallythe drunk started the car, switched the wipers on and off (it was a fine, drysummer night) flicked the blinkers on and off a couple of times, honked thehorn, and switched on the headlights.
He thenpulled in the hook and line and moved the vehicle forward a few inches,reversed a little and then remained still for a few more minutes as some moreof the other patron vehicles left.At last, the parking lot was empty; he pulled out of the parking lot andstarted to drive slowly down the road.
Theofficer, having patiently waited all this time, now started up the patrol car,put on the flashing lights, and promptly pulled the man over. He performed abreathalyzer test on the gentleman who cooperated fully, and to his amazementthe breathalyzer indicated no evidence of the man having consumed any alcohol at all!
Dumbfounded,the officer said, 'I'll have to ask you to accompany me to Headquarters.
Thisbreathalyzer equipment must be broken."
"Idoubt it," said the truly proud Newfie,
"TonightI'm the designated decoy."
