And this, boys and girls, is why you don't horse around on the radio.

There was a girl who lived across the street from us, who had a CB radio. My dad was a member of the local REACT, that monitored channel 9 for emergency traffic. This girl would, out of boredom, transmit false emergency messages. She was caught because my dad asked her her name and she gave my sister's name. Busted. I don't know what became of her, but we didn't see much of her after that. I heard her parents got a hefty fine for her actions.

That one would use on a summer's eve. And the bag it came in.

That is so much worse than the clowns who call 911 because the fast food place screwed up their order.  Where do these people come from and can we stop them from breeding?

Ive had people call about refusing to pay their bill at Dennys because the waitress brought them the wrong order....... and conveniently forgot to mention they ATE it and then complained when they had to pay.  Yes...... they are everywhere.  When the hand cuffs come out, miraculously so does their $20 bill.  Wierdest coincidence it is.
