To serve and protect and goof-off

So yesterday, we decided to head down to babraham’s and hang out for the weekend. On the way down, there were NC highway patrol everywhere. We proceeded with caution and were coming down a hill when on the other side of the 4 lane a trooper pulled over a civic. He got out of the car very fast (which is not a good sign) and ran up to the civic and the driver of the civic got out and they started to wrestle. I told lisa to hold on and u-turned the van and gunned it to go help the trooper – being in law enforcement, etc. in a previous life, I knew I had to help. We pulled up and the civic drove off and the trooper got into his vehicle…which was a little odd. I asked him if he was OK and he said yes he was. He had a stupid grin on his face. Lisa said we thought you were in trouble so we called it in. His goofy grin, got real serious and he was like…ummm, really? Well, I’m ok. Thanks. He was goofing off with a friend. What a dork – only in North Carolina...

Hahaha, ahem. Sorry, I have no response for that.

The cop looked pre pubescent. NC really needs to let their troopers graduate highschool before they give them a car or a gun no less.
