Did you like the last post? 11-16-10

There now. Wasn't the video in the last post uplifting? No, I guess it was not. Part of the reason I opened the fitness facility in Sarasota was that I was able to recognize far too many of the places in the video below. An increasing number of the PI cases I was receiving involved trips to places in Detroit that nobody likes to visit. Was I armed to the teeth? Well, sure I was. Did I enjoy crawling around deserted Detroit streets late at night. To be frank, sometimes I did. How come? Because it made me feel more grateful for the suburban neighborhood I lived in. I did not see too many red brick ranches or canals or boats in Detroit. I needed a little adrenalin rush anyway. Some people bungee jump. I sneak around nasty neighborhoods. And to be franker, I was always "punched in." I was adequately paid to keep tabs on people that lived and played in parts of the city that my clients did not care to or have the time to venture into. But just like the young men that purchase "ninja" style motorcycles, sooner or later my luck would have run out. Thus, just when I was beginning to get good at the electronics part of my little surveillance business, I folded up shop and went back full time back into the Personal Training business. It's warm down here today (about 80 degrees) and the people are very friendly. I have over a year and a half left on the lease...think I'll stay.
