How to catch the bad guys (I had no idea).

I live in a tourist town. Tourist season has started. I was at a hotel. It was beautiful outside today. I also like to play with my camera as I find nominees for the daily douche :). Okay, so I don't expect anyone to know about the last one (in fact if you do know this and see me perhaps you should run!) but the first four should be good enough reasons to carry a camera around.

I was fiddling with my camera today, testing out the light and taking some random photos. A man approached me watching me on his way to his car and stopped to ask me if I was a terrorist. He didn't ask me the time or if I was selling cookies, no he asked if I was a terrorist. Does that line normally work on terrorists? Man, if only we would have thought of that earlier!!! It would be so easy to catch terrorists and criminals.

Super smart investigator man: Hello, yes you there, with the bomb looking item are you a terrorist?

Terrorist: "Oh no!! You have asked me the one questions I must answer!! I must tell the truth yes, yes I am, you have caught me!!"

I wonder if that works with Douche bag boyfriends? That could have saved me some time in my single girl years.

I wish I knew some Russian or German (something with a harsh sound) so I could have yelled something at him and run off flailing my arms. Alas, I was not quick enough and simply said "Nooooooooooooooooooo" and went back to fiddling with my camera. He either A) Didn't believe me and was trying to get more information out of me or B)Realized what he said and was trying to back track, because he then started talking to me about gas prices.....hmmm......

Today, I nominate Mr. Mustache as the Daily Douche for suspecting me of terrorism.
