Last night as I was typing busily on my computer, I noticed a car pull up my driveway, followed by a police car with its lights flashing. I just assumed it was my brother being nabbed for drunk driving again, but then I heard a loud crash and the cop had his gun out and was yelling. Well, as it turns out, 3 criminals riding in a stolen Jeep were being chased by the cops and decided to turn down our driveway and slam into my dad's car (which actually belongs to the dealership he works for) before they made a run for it. One of the assailants was nabbed, but 2 of them are still loose on our property. There ended up being like 50 cops, and then they brought in those police dogs to go bite the criminals. It reminded me of the line from Leo about dogs ripping into arms for fun. Just goes to show there's a little bit of Failure in all of life's situations. .
