I think I just witnessed the begining of a drug bust in my hometown.
My mom, a guy from my confirmation class, and I stopped at an intersection near a two storey plaster (I think) building, and there was an unmarked dark green van in front. For some reason, I instinctively turned my head towards it and saw some guys in dark, unmarked SWAT-like uniforms. My first thought was 'Bomb squad', then some sort of grenade went off. I think it was a tear gas grenade, because I saw no black smoke, no fire, and I wasn't affected by an after-image of the blast, but my mom says she saw some 'phosphorescent' blast in there, so I dunno what it was. Anyway, then all the guys started yelling 'Go, go go!' and rushing into the building, just like in the movies, tv, and video games. Then my mom drove off, which was a good idea, just in case things got ugly. I swear this is all true, and I'll report back if there's anything about it on the news tommorow night.

It's always fun to witness raids. There's gang vs police wars quite often in Glasgow, and I have found myself uncomfortably close to them in the past.
'I have found myself uncomfortably close to them in the past.' How close?
17 arrests that night. 'Twas in the paper.
jeez, i wish something like that would happen where i live.
actually a week ago, some guy tryed to rob a bank with a knife. he went up to the bank teller and said: "im here to rob the bank" and she said: "no, you cant" then he said "but i have a knife" then the fuzz turned up and it was all over.

Yesterday, in the field just over the road from my house, a sheep fell over.
Fucking fell over! I was like "WOAH SHIT!"
Note to self: use dark BLUE van to increase odds of success.
