not that i'm saying Anubis9228 is a potential drunk drivar... just read on!

Today while Lisa and I were out in the Riverside area, a guy in an Oldsmobile Acheiva parked next to us at the Ghey-Mart (names changed to protect the corporate) we'd stopped at for our appointment for Emma at a professional photographer. While we were getting ready to go, we noticed this guy:
1. chug the last few oz. of a Budweiser can, crumple it up, and toss it underneath his passenger seat.
2. Pop open his trunk, reach in the ice chest he had back there, and pull out a new, cold Bud.
3. sit back down in his car, down about half the can, and go inside the Ghey-mart

We look at each other and agree that that's not Kosher.
Unfortunately, we don't have the phone # for the local PD handy, so we go inside, do the photograph session, and while inside, get the number for the local PD. After we finished, we head back out to the car. On our way out, we notice Mr. Drinking and Driving checking out at the registers.
We get out to the car before he does, so Lisa dials up the PD, gives them the 411 and the 10-28 (the information about what's going on, and the guy's plate number. Yeah. I'm a geek.).
While we were on the phone with PD, he came back, finished off his beer, and grabbed another. Local PD dispatches a unit to roll and catch this guy. Unfortunately, by the time we get off the phone, the guy's already driving away.
After mulling it over for a few seconds, Lisa and I agree that we've got nothing better to do right then, and I'd never think to put Emma in danger, so we followed the guy and called Local PD back.
I followed him FBI sytle! Like 6 cars back in the other lane & ****!
Anyway, after about 2 miles of following him, Local PD crusier pulls him over.
Now here's the skinny:
He was cited for driving on suspended license, his POS car was towed away, he wasn't DUI or DWI (not .6-.7 or above .8). He had (according to his statement to the citing officer) only had 2 beers - which the EIGHTEEN pack in the icechest corraborated.

Now mind you: this is at like 10:30-11:00am on a Saturday.
this guy was out doing his shopping and doing preflight for the night's activities.

Call us snitches or whatever. I don't care. I think we did good.
We have ZERO tolerance for drunk drivers. Especially with what has happened in the past few months with Anubis9228. For those who don't know, he's been hit by drunk drivers twice in the past few months, both times injuring him and totaling his cars. I take comfort in knowing that for at least today, he wasn't able to continue drinking and driving, able to hurt someone.
Now maybe tomorrow, he'll borrow someone's car, get loaded and plow into a church picnic, but I know we helped the general public out today.

Now: I know this is OT and I'll move it there tomorrow or shortly thereafter. Andrew: I'm glad you weren't hurt worse. I got kinda pissed off today and kinda wanted to beat this guy down, before we ever called the cops. I think if you'd been hurt worse, I might be in jail or on the lam right now.

Cliffnotes: Lisa and I saw guy swilling beer and driving, called cops, cops pulled guy over, cited for driving on suspended license, towed his POS, mightymouse saved the day.
