Nobody would have turned me in. Not a chance. If they did, who'd bring 'em beer? If they did, the people who drink the beer and smoke the cigarettes would deal with them for turning me in. I'd have had to be caught in the act - and had the higher ranking person decide to not turn their head and walk away.
Did you get hail?
He's probably "okay" and just recovering. He had an appointment today or yesterday.
The hail passed by like two or three miles to the north. I got lucky!
I was kinda hoping for a 'Verle got caught in the hail' story, but oh well...
a tornado was spotted not too far away
Verle did not get caught in the hail storm. We've been having thunderstorms here for the last three or four days in a row and Verle likes to sit on the front porch watching the storm from under the protection of the roof. I've got a real nice front porch for hanging out on. Anyways he was yelling at the lighting, just hooting and hollering at it every time a storm rolls through.
I dont remember if I told you that night he came back here last Friday when he got out of my car he was standing in the way of me opening the back door to get his bags out of the car so i told him move over a little bit and gave him a slight gentle nudge in the direction I wanted him to move, and he fell backwards down into the ditch. That was hilarious.
