lagilman: coffee or die (madness toll)
[personal profile] lagilman
If you saw ME in a police car, what would you think I got arrested for?


Meanwhile, despite the fact that I'm supposed to be All Book, All the Time until this damn thing is Done, a phrase tagged my brain, and I thought "huh. that's a title." I wrote it down.

I wrote the opening line.

I wrote the opening paragraph.

I realized it was actually the penultimate paragraph, and wrote the final line.

Now I have go go figure out the beginning (got it) and middle of the damn story.

Damn it....

(not that I mind the fact that my brain has apparently decided to finally return to work. But must it do so with such... vigor?)

Either a political protest or for nicking a rare bottle of wine from some Philistine who didn't appreciate it.

*points and giggles quietly at lizard brain*

*goes back to work on own lizard brain project*

Some kind of civil disobedience, possibly for unleashing the sharp edge of your tongue on some hapless philistine who orders "a bottle of your most expensive" instead of "a bottle of your best." I would expect the victim of the latter attack to be bleeding in at least a hundred places. Leading to an auxiliary charge of carrying a concealed deadly weapon.

Flipping off an officer. Public drunkenness. Flashing. There are so many options!

Anyone who uses Flash tag deserves the arrest. :)

Some sort of civil protest...

Strangling a sommelier with the chain of their little tasting bowl after proclaiming the swill they'd presented to you as the finest vintage the world had ever seen.

Molesting an undercover cop dressed as Sarah Palin. You have no idea how much I wish I had my camera for that one. Oh, the vinaceous blackmail possibilities! I would've even cut Diana in on the action--presuming we have the same taste in wine, of course.
Instead, I'm afraid I have to make due with this pic from the WFC Autograph Session <http://www.flickr.com/photos/13213840@n07/3023365754/in/set-72157608907407762/>. I can send the full-sized version if you like.
Cheers and smiles,
Jean Marie

You wandered around in a daze, your mind clouded by too many stories. So they took you in for your own protection.

Eviscerating someone who consistently ignores the rules of grammar. Oh wait, that's my crime too. ;-)

If I saw you in a police car, I'd assume that you were a witness being taken in for questioning.

Unless, of course, it was obvious that you were in restraints.

Yelling the word "Of!" repeatedly at someone who said "a couple minutes."
