Uh oh...the stealing the laddering thing didn't go so well. Lindsay and I took the ladder from Aunt Lu's last night. Lindsay has a friend who's a painter so we gave it to him. Today Lindsay took off from work so we went out to lunch and decided we'd swing by Aunt Lu's to see if she wanted to join us. When we got there we saw a police car out front so of course we freaked out!

We ran inside and Aunt Lu told us she was robbed (she's missing her ladder). And this is the kicker, the cop was my dear old friend, Dudley Do Right - the same cop who pulled me over and then sued me for giving CPR to his uncle (okay, so his uncle sued me, not him, but anyway...). So he's taking a report and Aunt Lu is going on and on and Lindsay gets all nervous and guilty and admits to the cop that we took the ladder! I was ready to kill her. Aunt Lu was ready to kill us. I tried to explain why we did it but Aunt Lu didn't seem to care.

So the cop then decides that it's a family matter and he'll let us work it out. Aunt Lu and Lindsay are apologizing profusely and I'm annoyed all around because now I have to give the ladder back to Aunt Lu. So he leaved and I decide to go out to my car for something (I just didn't want to deal with Aunt Lu).

As I'm walking out Dudley Do Right turns to me and says, "I'm Jack, by the way." Then he said that on the record I shouldn't steal, but off the record he would have done the same thing. I must have smiled then because he said, "You have a pretty smile. You should do it more often." Then he left. So maybe Officer Jack isn't so bad after all.
