In Reply to: OT--Small town, big government -cement sidewalks posted by NE IA on August 05, 2008 at 20:15:35:

Thanks for all the help. I guess if they try I would shoot rather than bow down to BS. The home owner is my friend, and his only expence was the concrete and rebar, I used my forms and equipment. He is a swell guy, and probably torments city hall more than anyone I know. Probably another factor I did not mention. Our town does not have a building inspector, We are such a small town we all have to take turns being the town drunk.

Personaly I don't think they have the cahonas to try it, and if they do---well you know living here this long--well what I'm a thinkin is---I probably have something on every town father.. You know enough to make their life pretty miserable if it came out of the wood work. Lets for the time being call it amunition that probably won't be fired.

Like I stated I had a majority in my favor, and that alone is a mans word. Don't think there is a one that would jump ship and claim we did not agree it was stupid.

I think the real problem is I should have asked all them so they could all feel important, and not left out of the decision making.

In all fairness, I would not want their jobs--always someone like me bucking the system.

I'm a village idiot, and enjoy life. There is NOTHING I would not say to the cops, or town fathers for that matter. With the exception of one that I just don't mingle with.

I have locked two of the cops out of their squad car, and made them beg me to let them back in. A few weeks ago one deputy that --well lets say he doesn't have any gray hair. Yea well I made a u turn on main street in front of him so he said that it is against the law. I called him a dumb a$$ and told him to give me his gun so I could shoot him in the groin area. Well he refused to even let me hold his guns so I put the car in reverse and undid my u-turn, He just laughed, and said that should make it ok. He was a real jerk caus he wouldn't let me borrow the squad car and do power U-turns either. In all honesty he has helped me numerous times at car accidents, and other ordeals, so in all fairness he is a good egg.

We all have to get along, I made the stament the other eve that we have only 350 homes in our small town. Now we usualy average 70-75 calls (EMS) a year. We of course tend the rural area also--but after thirty years, I have helped a pretty good percent of the folks out. And we are batting 101% when it comes to the comunity being thankfull. So therefore no one gets in our faces, or maybe we just don't understand that they are.

By the way my girlfriend seems to be putting on weight. I kinda notice my wifes clothing is getting tighter on her.

Hey I will keep you posted if anything pops up. I will guarentee that if they arrest me---I will be driving the cop car to take me to jail.

Thanks again everyone.
