Lol brother, I'll give you credit for one thing for sure, you definitely have the ability to read between the lines :)
So do you. You couldn't have survived a career as a law enforcement officer if you couldn't "read between the lines".When you stopped someone in a car on a lonely North Carolina backroad, the only "lines" you had were "20-something tattooed white male in an old Toyota license plate ALB-113". That was it. Everything else was reading BETWEEN the lines. "He's nervous. Keeps looking over in the passenger floorboard. Doesn't give the same answers to the same questions. Has a bulge in his beltline on the right hip. Dilated pupils .... " and so on. None of what you are seeing "between the lines" PROVES anything. People can second-guess you and say "But how did you KNOW?"But you've seen it before a dozen times, and it always means the same thing. And so you act accordingly. If you're wrong in your deduction, then it means an apology or a gig on your record, and you've learned. If you're right, it means you live another day, and a successful arrest, and you've learned again. That's all I'm doing. I've interacted with thousands of people regarding motorcycles in 48 years, and I find that I'm getting fairly good at "guessing" at the balance of probability ....Lannis
Sounds about right. Among other things, he got his 650 BSA up to 80 in second gear, too ....Like he'd know. At 8000 RPM on a stock BSA, Samuel Smith himself couldn't read the Magnetic speedometer on that bike, assuming a con-rod hadn't taken it off the forks first ....Lannis
but it's a helluva good story anyway ya cut it
