The answer is..

15.14.13.12.11.10.9.8.7...

The question was....can you count backwards from 15 to 7 for me...

Asked by the nice policeman at the DUI checkpoint/roadblock that we had to pass through to get home from my wife's Christmas party...🙄

I cant do that when I am sober with a flashlight pointing at me while surrounded by cops...

Lucky for me I had a couple with dinner and was able to pass quickly....😱

Ray,

One time I was told to get out of my car and the cops threw coins on the ground. They then asked me to pick up the coins in the order of the value. It is so easy to get confused with a nickle and a dime if you didn't have your wits about you. Lucky for me I passed the test. It was scary enough having to get out of the car. Mind you, I had a few beers in me at the time but not enough to get busted 🙂 😀

They threw coins on the ground and told you to pick them up? That's more than a little rude. I'd expect to see that from a bad guy in an old western.

Ray..

I get picked up about every other year, and I don't even drink!!

One thing I cannot do is walk a straight line!

Did you at least keep the change?

 

[AffectionateDan]

Yeah, I'd have pocketed the change! Smartass cops!

Tron...I cant walk a straight line either. I never have enough to get drunk. I had 2 drinks over a 3 hour period with a huge dinner.

I was glad I didnt have to get out. First time I ever even saw a checkpoint like that and there had to be at least 20 cars parked on the side that they didnt let the owners drive home.

Re: Ray..

A good friend of mine, who's an officer, told me if I was ever stopped, to say that I blew out my eardrum in a scuba accident and so my equilibrium was off, but I don't have more than a couple drinks if I'm driving~too many idiots around here!

XOXO

Flashing back, now, to a very warm, extremely early Sunday morning, in July of 1981.

I was home for the weekend. There were four of us in the car...my best friend (STILL my best friend, for twenty six years now), this jerk I knew at the time (hereinafter known as 'Doofus'), and Doofus' girlfriend, a ditzy, flighty, annoying fool who didn't laugh when verbally stimulated to do so, rather, she squealed like a dolphin. I sat up front, while Doofus drove, in his torquey 1972 Cutlass S. Every time his girlfriend laughed, I started whispering the tune to 'Flipper'.

We went to the Osprey in Manasquan to see some band, it was the usual, crowded Saturday night. Afterwards, we were lit, but not overwhelmingly so. On the drive home, we were stopped by a State Trooper. When he looked in the car, he said, "I smell marijuana."
Doofus says, "Well, Officer, I won't lie to you, I have smoked marijuana, but I haven't done so in a long time!" Here I am, envisioning calling my parents to pick me up at the Barracks...
The trooper yelled at him for a bit, then left us alone, and we all drove off. Well, we let Doofus have it. Even Flipper lit into him. After we ditched the two of them, it was like four in the morning, and my best friend and I went to a diner nearby, where, lo and behold, the trooper who stopped us was enjoying coffee and a pork roll sandwich. He came up to us and said, "you guys gotta tell me how you're hanging around with a fucking idiot like that!"
