NOW MY WEEK

IS OFFICIALLY OVER

210 bits of routine radio chatter and 33 incoming calls. A quiet night. Days were pretty busy, as I had guessed, but the"spill-over" didn't last much past 8p.

One interesting call a little past 1a. A extremely intoxicated male tourist.
"Good morning. Royal Cab."

"I need a cab"

"Where are you at sir?"

"I'm sitting on the corner of some street and Kihei Way."

"Which street, sir?"

"I don't know."

"How about looking up at the street sign and tell me what it says."

"Okay."

Very looonnnggg pause

"I'll spell it. Okay?"

"Thats great sir."

"P-E-D X I-N-G. Its close to the 76 station."

"How about you do my driver a favor and walk over to the 76 station and we'll pick you up there. Okay?"

"K.'
TMR (#27) found him and got him to his condo. Said, after dropping, that he was in worse shape than I described in the dispatch.

I hope all of you have a great day/week.

See you tomorrow.

Little Sally came home from school and, with a smile on her face, told her mother,
"Frank Brown showed me his 'willy' today!"
Before the mother could raise a concern, Sally went on to say,
"It reminded me of a peanut"
Relaxing with a hidden smile, Sally's Mum asked,
"Really small was it?"
Sally replied,
"No...salty!"
