Crime Scene

A L O H A !

 Peter Gunn Theme by Peter Gunn on Grooveshark
 I Still can't forget
what I saw today-











 Just another beautiful morning
for my walk
here in Waikiki.  

Until -

















 Two uniformed officials
confronted a rather
pugnacious looking fellow
in yellow.
(Those numbers tattooed on his forehead
made him look scary)
 
"Don't resist, sir"
I heard one official say.











 A shot rang out!
 What happened next
I cannot say.
I Ran a block
in record time.














Another bystander
broke down
and cried!



but seriously:


 " There are not enough
 good things said 
about the people that
put themselves 
in harms way 
every day
 for us.
What does that say 
about us? "

Julie Hébert

Thanks
for the good 
YOU do
(Yes, comments count)

               Warmly, cloudia

The cloud looks like it's going to belly-flop onto the ground. Shots? Someone shoot at the orange guard? Where did it come from? Be careful! DrumMajor

Indeed. I was watching ch. 2 news and at the very end of the show that talked about a boy who is helping his neighbor by selling lemonade to get money for her house repairs. I just thought why don't they have good news during the beginning of the broadcast. Have a sweet weedend, Cloudia. Cheers!!

It is indeed a time to wonder and maybe need of a super hero. Just read about Batman. What a thoughtful entry.

Cloudia said...

Thank YOU every one!

Drum Major: Thanks for the well-wishes, but it is a comedy piece.

I'll never forget your post when you scared that guy away from your boat and then followed him back to his hotel! A gutsy broad, you.

Jack said...

You are so clever. I never see things this way. Just too literal. But, I do appreciate your creativity and humor.

There really aren't enough good things said to, or about the people that keep us safe, or money for that matter.

Small Kucing said...

Thanks for following my blog :)

Hilary said...

Cloudia said...

Thanks dear Friend - each of YOU
mean a LOT!

SandyCarlson said...

So true, my friend. Thank you for making me smile!

I too am so grateful for all the men and women who put themselves into harm's way everyday. I remember my son telling me how scary some of his jobs as a firefighter were, but you went out and did your job because that was what you were trained to do.
