Today i was walking down the road, crossed the road, and bam, i got busted for j-walking
And me and my friend were going to get a ticket. The cop whipped out his palm pilot, and used that to give us our tickets. Then he whipped out a small printer, and printed our tickets, with no wires! So i was like, hmm, bluetooth! So i searched and found 'pocket pc' so i made a note that said 'hello cop, this is stupid' and sent it. He got it then looked confused and me and my friend started laughing, he asked if... |

He asked if it was us, and we told him the truth. He
Asked how we did it, so i said watch, and took a pic of his motorcycle and sent it, and he laughed and said if we tought him how to do that, we wouldnt get our tickets, sn then he showed me he also had a t610, so i showed him, he laughed and said he was going to have fun with it, thanked us, then told us we better not j-walk again, laughed, hopped on his motorcycle and left smiling.
Im glad i got a nice cop with a good sence of humor!
Haha:-)
Its good to be back! |

j-walking, or more correctly jaywalking, means to cross a street illegally or in a reckless manner. this usually involves rossing the street in the middle of the block where there is no pedestrian crossing, or diagonally or against a light and technically illegal.
"jay" was once a word used to describe a silly person, so the implication is that jaywalking is done by stupid people because it is dangerous.
