Exclamation Close call with the cops right now!

Wow, I just stepped back into my dorm room, and have a funny little true story to tell.

So I'm still smoking the same 8th of White Widow I've had for a while (my tolerance is low, plus it's good shit). I just finished a response paper for a class tomorrow, so I wanted to smoke a bowl to listen to some music for about an hour and falling asleep nice and high. I usually smoke in the room and use incense to cover it up when it's late and my roommates are asleep, but my girlfriend is coming over early tomorrow after an early morning test, and I don't want my room smelling like weed (believe me, incense doesn't cover up the smell completely, as my roommates can attest). I pack a teeny bowl (doesn't take much for me) into my pipe, Ariel, put it in my left pocket, and my trusty blue lighter in my right. I walk downstairs, go behind the building, and was about to go into a little area of brush that I usually go into when I smoke outside. My part of campus is kind of isolated and nature-y, so there's lots of trees and brush instead of gross alleyways behind buildings.

It's been raining lately, so as I prepare to step behind the dark shaded tree-like area I just described, I saw that the ground, usually covered in bark and leaves, is about an inch deep in water. There's a dried up lake about 100 metres from my dorm (man, in writing, my campus sounds pretty nice), so I was going to venture to the rim to smoke and come back. I saw a figure approaching, just walking, and carrying something on a strap. I had my pipe in my pocket, so I didn't stress. As the figure neared, I saw it was a lady cop!!

I usually don't stress under situations like this--I'm somewhat cool about them, plus I don't look at all like a stoner. So the lady cop tells me, "Hi!" I stop to talk to her, and realize my hand is on my pipe in my pocket. Our exchange goes like this:

Cop: Do you live here?
Me: Yeah, right there, in _______ ###.
Cop: Nice. What are you out doing?
Me: Ah, taking a break. Pulling a late-nighter, so I needed to wake up.
Cop: Yeah, the cold will wake you up. What are you studying?
Me: Biology.
Cop: Hey, wanna see something cool?

She then proceeded to show me what she was carrying on a strap: night vision goggles! They were the kind that look like binoculars but only have one lens in front to let light in, as seen on TV. She let me try them ("Don't look into the light, try the dark," she told me) and it pretty much looked exactly how it does in movies and video games. I was pretty impressed, so I didn't even have to fake being nice to her. She was really courteous, bid me goodbye and a nice walk, and kept walking toward my building as I went to the lake.

Needless to say, I wanted to smoke still and go back, but by the time I got to the lake, I realized a few of things.
1) The goggles worked extremely well, and she could have seen me spark up in those dark bushes easily had she wanted to. Damn, I got lucky!
2) I don't know where she was patrolling by foot just strolling around, so I didn't want her to catch me high on the way back or catch me with those goggles of hers in the distance.
3) I could go back to my room to smoke in there, but again, I don't want my girlfriend smelling it, and there was a tiny chance the cop might smell the smoke I blow out the window. Don't want to risk that.

So, instead I sit here at 3:39 am my time, sober and typing this story. I stood out looking at the lake, collected my thoughts for about 5 minutes, chuckled to myself, and came back to my room. I'm glad the lady cop was really nice--she obviously had to ask what I was doing out, but she never seemed suspicious or mean, and she seemed excited to show me the goggles too. I'll take this as a sign and wait a few days before rewarding myself with a bowl. Probably in my room, too, now that I know that cops walk around casually in the wee hours. I'm just glad the rain stopped me from sparking a bowl in my hiding spot. Lucky coincidence.

The moral of the story is: Keep a sharp eye out as you blaze on. And night-vision goggles are really cool.

Wow, sounds like a really chill cop. You actually gave a really good excuse man. I may have to try that out if the situation ever arises.

You should save up money to get a pair of like night vision sunglasses. And just toke up outside so you can patrol everyone around, now THAT would be sick.

you can make a pretty bad ass one no fuss even set it up as a wireless package you can drop around the corner you toke at 'n view on a small wireless lcd

http://www.amazon.com/Wisecomm-Indoo.../dp/B00067OEP4
http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicati...604&CatId=1322

if you say owned a wifi enabled pda 'n wired the second cam up to broadcast you could do a campus community wifi lan that has a bunch of cams

your own lan web page with alerts lol real time video of toke spots

imagine scoping your toke spot via your blackjack

edit another

this runs off 9v so you could dig up up a small 9-12v wireless transmitter to pair it with

P.S. Hell yeah Night Vision goggles are really cool!

i went to a gun show on sunday and bought a new 9mm but my buddy bought a pair of 3rd generation night vision for 700. and that was a good deal. it came with one of those head straps and shit and you look thru it with one eye and you basically use it as a scope.

pretty tight shit.

Yeah man, those things were tight. Ars, you ARE a knowledgeable person. Thanks for all the props--close calls are always mitigated by anything having to do with night vision, I'd say.

Everytime I read one of your posts you have all of this crazy Electronic mumbo jumbo language I don't understand. It's crazy. Is that what profession you're in? I wrote down the info you had on projectors to use as a TV. I'm looking into that
