Smooth Talker Hightails it
Conning the cops: three stops in one wild night40 total reviews
Comment from Tpa
As always, your stories are awesome to read. This one follows suit. Not only did it have moments of humor, it also gave the boys a little scare, but I'm sure not enough to totally end their drinking habits. GOOD READ.

Thank you! Always a pleasure--stop by anytime.
Three times in one night is true--details are fabricated/elaborated--the cooked-up ruse is the last part went down as written!

You had me right from the "his artistry as regards cow-patty piling" - what an elegant euphemism! It sure does help to have a fast-talking mate to get the team out of trouble!

You have done a stupendous job in recreating a story that you were not a part of, involving people you didn't know. Chuck's retelling I'm sure was brilliant. But the phrase of the day is still yours: 'Chuck and his six-pack of beer buddies...'
Do you have to work on this or do these expressions just pour out of you? Are you aware of how funny you are? The stand-ups these days don't have a clue; you ought to open a charter school on humor.
It's ironic that drunken teen-agers were the worst that cops faced in those days. How the world has changed (sob)!

I am floored--Karenina boo$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$ted this to the TOP! I had it at 82 cents--she put 36 pumps on it. OUCH.
-
Wow! That's so cool of her.
How does anyone even reach 36 pumps???
-
She reviews a lot and rarely posts--she's done this in my behalf before--I implore her to $$$$$$$$ave for her own STELLAR work.
Comment from Judy Lawless
Oh my goodness, Chuck certainly was a good friend to these guys, and very patient with Jimmy, who should have been taken home. You've found a gold mine of stories from him. This is another one to tickle the funny bone. Well done.

I enjoy your frenetic voice as a writer, something I've surely mentioned before, and it shines through here. Chuck certainly was a silver-tongued devil to have gotten them through all that. Great work and thanks for sharing. Later daze.

I like your writing style of giving Chuck the story to tell. You are very good at writing humor. I'm pretty good with drama but wish I wrote humor as well as you.
The guys, who hadn't heard the whispered exchange, go nuts, screaming at me for being so stupid as to try to escape, that we're going [to] be chased down and wind up in jail.

Liz,
Those would be some pretty stinking stellar memories if you were a member of that particular rat pack, eh? I can see them laughing over just that one night over a thousand beers afterward. If there were other crazy stunts like that, man - they could relive their glory days unto eternity!
Such fun!!
Thank you!

"Smooth Talker Hightails it" is very amusing. The characters seem to come to life, especially Chuck with his amazing story telling. The excuses he dreams up will give every reader a good laugh. Well done.

Hello Liz.
You used an interesting writing technique when you turn the dialogue over to Chuck as you introduced the story.
The situations are clever and humorous. The twist occurs when the cop gets into the game. That is a funny story well told.

Comment from royowen
That is incredibly Clever, the problem there we never had a designated driver, but fortunately when I was young, if one could avoid accident when a little "tipsy", it's certainly not the case anymore! Beautifully written Liz, thanks for sharing the "the adventures of Chucky" well done, blessings Roy
