60yr old buddy gets into a fist fight!

[Sled Puller]

He stops in yesterday, to get one of my old bumpers for his truck, and says guess what? I was in a fist fight last week.



I can't wait to hear this, because he is a pillar of the community, and not a trouble maker at all.



Seems hes walking across a parking lot, and this guy almost runs him down. The guy stops and jumps out of the car,to apologize? No, "I'M GOING TO KICK YOUR "tail" OLD MAN!"



Now, you need to know, that while he may LOOK like an old man, he is a 2 tour Viet Nam Vet, wounded once, worked in a steel mill, still cuts firewood, and lifts weights. And, he is a guard at a bad boys school, now.



Poor dude walks right into trouble that he has no idea is coming, POW!! Takes him out.



As the guy is stumbling to his feet, hes yelling through mashed lips, and busted teeth, "I'M GOING TO SUE YOU OLD MAN!!!"



Well, my buddy called the local police,(as in one, small town. ) and reported the whole thing. Cop says he will be back in touch, well, thats the last he heard of it. Report filed in the trash can, I'm sure.

The wife

A couple of months ago my wife was toodling down our street going to the store when a car passed her in a residential district at a high rate of speed. The guy went two blocks and pulled over, jumped out of his car, and went into a house. The wife being a little peeved, as there are kids playing on this street all the time, pulls over and starts writting down his license plate. The guy comes running out of the house saying "Lady I hope you are not writting my license plate down, I only have a half an hour for lunch!" She replys "No excuse Jackass". She finnishs and drives off, later giving the number to a local Cop. Two months later she is reading her paper in the morning and I hear a "Gasp", she says "Come here and read this!". The story states that a serial murderer was caught in Denver, with a picture of guess who? The same guy down the street! The law was down by the river looking for some of his victims bodys a few weeks later.

Holy Crap!!! Good for her and I'm really glad she didn't get hurt at all!

 

[NPloysa]

Sled, did this young ignorant guy want to hurt your buddy for any reason? Or, just wanted to beat some guy up?

CF,



Was that the guy who had bodies burried in his backyard and the police were digging up the yard on TV? Thank God your wife called him in!

Scary Cf!



Nick, the idiot evidently was riled, because he almost ran my buddy down. I guess he decided noone was allowed to be walking across the parking lot that day. Very strange, drugs or booze, I'm sure.



It was in a gas stations parking lot, I mean, people should be expected to be walking there. Not like it was I-80, LOL.

I'm sure we will be hearing about his other follies, soon, DUI or something.

 

[Champane Flight]

No

This guy had bodies buried down near the Arkansas river, they never found them, had the dogs out sniffing for quite a while. They figure the flood of 99 took most of his kills downstream. He also was supposed to have a couple buried over in the San Luis valley. He was caught in Denver, they did find some bodys there.

Another 60+ story

My dad was coming over to get me so we could run and get and external fuel tank for his truck. He pulls up to the light a little ways from my house and there is a log truck strattling the lane at the top with his blinker to turn right. Understandible since the pole is so close to the corner. However there is another truck in the left hand lane, no blinker on, so dad wheels up a little ways behind the log truck in the right hand land. Light changes, log truck makes his turn. Dad starts rolling forward and the truck in the left hand lane flips blinker on and commences to coming over. Dad gets stopped just in time for the guy to brush into his mirror. Dad being a truck driver can understand how that might happen, so he tries to back up a little and the guy continues rocking his truck so dad can not get unwedged. The guy jumps out of his truck with a hammer and charges up to my dad screaming cuss words and waiving the hammer around. Dad calmly tells the guy to make sure the first swing hits, cause it will be his last. Ladies with children on the corner, raising money for something, have to remove their kids due to the guys language. They call 911 and cops arrive. They want to know what my old man wants to do. He asks them what they would do. They say, they would press charges. Dad is still having an internal struggle, cause he does not want to screw the guys career up, but he also does not want to give this guy a false sense of security that he can do this again. I think the guy is lucky that my old man is such a patient sort nowadays, cause it wasn't that long ago, he would have taken him out. Anyways, I would like to get your input on this, as he still does not know what he wants to do. Remember my dad is also a trucker of over 40 years, so he understands the guys frustration, just not his manner of releasing it. Sorry if this is stealing the thread, but hearing the first story, made this weekends event take on new meaning.

your father needs to keep in mind that the next person the other guy comes after might be a woman on or someone unuable to defend themselves. Telll him to go on and press charges.

Yep, never know who this guy might run into, your father would be doing society a favor by pressing charges.

Got to agree

Have him press charges, if the joker was a real driver he would have had his blinker on too.



I had a friend who ran the east coast, he got into downtown New York one time delivering a large computer system to a uptown office building (this is back in the sixtys). He finished up with the delivery and took off down the street. Well, he got to his turn, a righthand turn that would lead him onto the interstate and back out of New York, to miss this turn would take him miles to get back on the freeway. He has his blinker on, the light changes, he looks to the right mirror, and low and behold here is a VW parking right along side him! The guy gets out and walks away from the car! My friend sits through three light changes waiting for the guy to come back, thinking he might of had an emergency or something to get to. Finally a Cop jumps up on his running board and asks him "Whats the hold up Bub?". He tells him theres a car parked on my right and I cannot make the turn. The Cop walks around the right side and looks at the illegally parked car, comes back and tells him "Make the turn!" He puts the old KW in Granny and creeps around the corner with the trailer going over the frontend of the VW crushing it, blowing the tires, then back off and around the corner. Well my buddy pulls over and goes back to the cop, who is standing on what is left of the VW, WRITING A TICKET! The Cop says "What are you still doing here, get going!"



I still think of George once in awhile, he passed of lung cancer a few years back. He was a good friend and a good driver.

 

[crobertson1]

LOL. Thanks CF, that's a great story. May he rest in peace.

 

[DHorton]

Thank you gentlemen. It has really been bothering him of what to do. I think he has his mind made up to press charges and see it through. Again, sorry to Sled Puller for highjacking.
