He finally finished it!

Lawdog, that is. Finished the long-ago started 'Pink Gorilla Suit' story.
Excerpt:
A big part of the Sheriff's "Work smarter, not harder" philosophy involved the fine art of misdirection -- if a subject was so confused that he wasn't per-zackly sure which way was up, then he/she/it/they probably wouldn't be causing the sorts of problems which require extra paperwork. Or ER trips. Depositions. Lawsuits. That kind of thing.
Which brings us to the Pink Gorilla Suit.
*sigh*
Tucked not-far-enough in the back of the evidence closet was a costume that the S.O. had picked up from somewhere. As the name suggests, this was a gorilla costume, mostly pink.
Now, when I say pink, I don't think y'all quite understand the depth of pinkness we are contemplating here: It was pink, pink. Neon pink. Fluorescent pink. A pink not found anywhere in nature. A pink that, in and of itself, constituted a radiation hazard. A shade of pink which, after a single glimpse, would cause the most flamboyant Mardi Gras costumer to protest that things had gone too far.
Pink.
Go Read.

I thuroughly enjoyed part 1 when he originally posted it, I had no idea how much funnier it could get.
Btw for those who don't usually read LawDog, the other post from today is good too. It's about the differences between guacamole and wasabi.

Somebody should've made a YouTube video of that 'Dirty Deeds" performance

Heh. I'll have to remember the wasabi/guacamole one next time I go for sushi.
I'll have to build my wasabi tolerance back up first...

I need to see if I can borrow that suit then get permission from my boss to serve complaints on various campaigns. There needs to be more sheer whatthefuckery in relation to my job.

Do you really think a Pink Gorilla Suit with mauve top hat, tie and spats is going to be unusual at some of the more, creative, groups of the left?

When you show up as a Duly Authorized Representative of The Man, most of the campaign committees expect a dark-colored suit and tie or the uniform of the local county sheriff's office. The pink gorilla suit will allow me to infiltrate the committee as a typical member of "Astarte-Worshipping Interpretive Performance Art Dancers 4 Obama" or some other such bullroar. They'll never know what hit them. It'll be like when those people being held by FARC were rescued by a bunch of Colombian commandos dressed in Che Guevara t-shirts.
Besides, some of those people need to hear "Dirty Deeds Done Dirt Cheap" as sung by a man in a pink gorilla suit, complete with mauve top hat, tie, and spats.
