so... i have had a few folks questioning me over the past few years in regards to me being a Cop.. while i may play one on T.V or in good natured, scare the shit out of wooks fun... i am not involved in law enforcement... the story of this began about 15 years ago.. my brother, bob(whom passed away 10 years ago....also an early member of the vibes message board in 2001 *bnotes*).. anyway. he cut his hair... so not too long after, i decided to cut my hair.. we were at the Phish Festival, Oswego... and we were walking through "shakedown" looking for some totally legal organics to purchase... from anyone watching.. we totally looked like cops.. brand new phish tshirts...black sunglasses... shorts with belts... and sneakers... my proliferal hearing heard the word "nuggs".. i went over and began to bargain with the young entrepreneur.. he became frazzled and scared... i comforted him and assured him i was not a police officer... he began to buy that i wasn't.. but the dude i was with(my bro) was a cop... i said that my brother had his "bat and dug out".. and before any money was exchanged, his services would be tested... he scratched his head many times.. and he said it was to "phishy".. and he walked on and said "Maybe next time Occifers"... Fast Forward a couple of years to vibes of 2003.. here i am.. trying to find a similar entrepreneur.. i am shut down at every "vendor office"... i realized that it was time.. i started my bag of wigs and other costume ideas... so.. as i am walking back to my camp, dressed in afro wig and girls skirt... i hear a good friend of mine, drew(phan), say... " Hey, way to try and not look like a cop, Occifer Boland!! " In unrelated instance at Stonehenge of i think 2006?? Mayfly called me Occifer the whole time while he didn't know the back story .. as well was my first time meeting him.... so that's it.. sorry to waste your time with this story.. just wanted to kill some time.. and type some ridiculously out of place stuff for you all to read... in the end.. i am not a cop... but, ironically and oxy moron like.. i am a Substance Abuse/Crisis counselor at a school for troubled teens.. now, that's a strange trip..

Cool story...I can relate to it. People beg me as a cop and that sort of ruins me sourcing my herbal needs anywhere I go in life. Had a kid the the parking area of Wormtown almost shit his pants when I asked how much...he handed me a LARGE Mason jar and said something about giving them away since selling is......He refused to sell I and refused to accept his "gift".

hey jill !!!!! a LOT of LOVE goes into those Hot Dogs... not sure i can do a huge production of my weiners at Vibes this year.. doing small fests was easier. At least for the p0.t luck picnic i should have a tray full of them.. If i do manage to have extra money, then i will provide a couple hot dog giveaways... and this year, there should be a HOt Dog costume..
