  Well, it's been a busy week. And yet I still have the feeling that I've gotten nothing done. Monday I helped my friend Dave move some furniture he had been given: a coffee table, a bed, and an entertainment center. That all went fine. But then we returned the pickup truck he had borrowed from a co-worker. I never got the fellow's name, but he was nice enough to have cleaned Dave's car for him while we were moving the furniture. Anyway, we parked the truck and then walked up to get Dave's car. On the way we were stopped by a couple of police officers in an unmarked car. The police informed us that two white kids only came to that part of town for two reasons, either to sell drugs or buy drugs. This was outrageous. Apparently we had been stopped because we were walking down the street in the wrong part of town. As it turns out, Dave's co-worker did have a warrant out on him (for what, I canot say) so he was arrested.
Dave and I were finally let go on our way, but not before being frisked and I'll go ahead and say it, harassed by the police (I'm sure they were sure we were there for a drug deal). Sigh... The rest of my free time this week has been taken up playing urlLink Madden 2005 -- if not the best football video game ever, it's certainly the best football video game franchise ever.
