 | The happenings of the pre easter meet thing...
entry by shiroi
3/27/2005 7:04 PM
| This is what I posted somewhere else:
Wow, a LOT happened. It was an insanely full day of interesting things. The day (03/26/2005) started with Boffo and I waking at my house at around 9 am in order to contact Sarah for the upcoming UE meet taking place in Toronto. She ends up not coming, so we head off to the meet without her.
1 pm
The meet starts, and Boffo and I are immediately greeted by Av and others who gave us name tags that had weird versions of our names on em (she-ra and Boffoon). People there were cool as usual. Some new faces and a lot of old ones. Ninj sold t-shirt (I hate how I'm so broke...).
~3 pm
We all decide on a location and it's a neato highschool potlan knew of. We went in three groups: rz350 rode his motorbike with cosmic_bard on the back, Av connundrum potlan and I rode in connundrum's truck, and cosmic_bard boffo vince lostflock [chinese girl?] [guy that was driving?] went in a car. At this point Roadwolf had left the meet, but he said he'll be avail later.
We get to the building; it's insides looked like they had been spewed out the sides of the building to form a grandoise pile going as high as three stories all around the abandoned high school (I forget the name of it). We go around back into another lot with a muddy trail. The trail was awesome because everyone was worried the cars would get stuck. A small team of scouts first checked the building out while another team kept a close eye on a security guard sitting out front smoking a cigar. Once we found it was simple as honey roasted onion pie to get in we invited the rest. After a little while of checking crap out I told Av about a cool looking area on the second floor. I lead heading down the stairs to see Potlan just standing there. So I'm all like "dude...wtf...why are you just standing there??" then I hear "Can I help you?" in a booming voice from my left (Potlan is to the right of me) and I see the security guard standing there looking at me and Potlan (everyone else got away). He's a pudgy old man who looks like he couldn't win a race in the special olympics while on speed.
"We're just taking pictures" I say innocently.
"Yea? Do you have permission to be here?"
"Well it's for an art project for a class"
"What's the foreman's name?"
"I don't know, we're just here for the urban decay."
"hmm, I'm afraid I'm gonna have to ask you to leave.."
Potlan pipes up "Do you mind if we take some pics on our way out?"
"I don't see why not"
after a while of the security guard talking up a storm about "back in my day.." or "those crazy new ways of doing things..." we see Boffo and rz350 come up some stairs to our level.
"Are you guys in the class too?"
"uhm...yea.." Boffo says.
we have a bit more of the same crap.
"How many more are you in the building?"
"Dunno...a few.." I say.
Boffo gets a phone call from Av, they discreetly clear the situation with the other side. The security guard had mentioned how low the security is at (I forget the name, but it's the next place we go to.)
~5 pm
We head straight to a timmy's to talk about how the place was pretty cool and how strange the security guard was (he believed a Satanist group ran all the rullers through history). We decide it'd be cool to check out another place. I hear Boffo and bard mention a "plastics factory" and I put it out there and suggested it to everyone. Vince and flock decided to head home.
Once we get to the "plastic factory" it turns out to be some metal factory place that happened to actually be the place that the security guard mentioned. Boffo showed us the way in. It was very cool and huge, but unfortunately the sun was beggining to set; by the time we had checked out half the area it was already night. There was a working microwave and lots of power still in the building. Bard was looting and it was funny llike it was a UE shopping centre. We made our way down the halls checking awesome things out when Boffo pointed out a mini door above some stairs. I climbed up and shut the door. I then did a little act that made me look like a mechanical puppet in a haunted house. That's when we got the "wonderfull" idea to use fire extinguisher as a mist for my act. Oh god...it was horrible. One blow of that thing at me and I was caughing like mad with a tangy taste running through my taste buds like it was an olympic orgy on crack. I kept the act up despite the choking death that was fire extinguisher vapors. Afterwards we had to venture through a huge cloud of it down some stairs. As cool as it looked, it was choking death. We saw a cool sign that said:
Rules of survival:
1) hide
2) if found, lie
~7 pm
We decide to go to the brickworks rumored to have a crazy hobo that attacks people. We call up Roadwolf, and he's now available for UE so he joins this one along with Nightbird.
We get there, it's very cool looking. People argue over a good enterance but Av pushes something made by the homeless dude and we get in. Everyone has flashlights and Roadwolf has his radio on the police frequency blaring so we can pretend we're police to scare the homeless guy. We saw fresh tracks in the mud running from our area, so we knew it was the hobo. We found some cool stuff, Av found a brick. Saw the hobo's home, torn down a lot of the exits he blocked off. After a great UE, we headed back to the parking lot where we were going to find a new location to check out. But Roadwolf saw Exkalibur's van and we all got some awesome ideas. We figured he came to try and scare us while we were in Brickworks, so we picked the lock on Exka's car and we hid inside waiting for him. After a few mind games calling Exka on the cell etc, we got fooled cause him and Gunslinger were watching us do all this and they were laughing at us. He came up to us and said "You guys just got owned!" "yea? Well we messed up your van". On our way out we saw some old dude getting serviced in his car next to the building, that would've owned if RW turned his lightbar on.
~9 pm
We went to a Tim Hortons and talked up with everyone, and discussed the next location while talking about the many many cops in the area. Exka took Av to his boyfriend, so Av, Gunsilnger, and Exka were gone. Roadwolf decides that Mimico has lots of abandoned looking buildings so we might find a ripe one there. Now we were in two groups: Connundrum and cosmic_bard in connundrum's truck, and RW Nightbird Boffo me in RW's van. We looked around on a lot of lots. I first scouted this huge building that turned out to be only half abandoned. Driving around the dirty city we coined the term "hamilton" as an adjective for describing buildings that look abandoned but are indeed active. After checking out MANY hamilton buildings in the area we find a small library that people said they saw a huge hole in the side of. Turned out to be pretty secure and we left...in SHAME. That libray was like one room anyway and felt like pussies for even trying. Driving past a few more very hamilton places we came across a cool looking area that turned out to be a movie lot for a Martha Stewart movie. We drove up to the guy sleeping in his car and honked at him asking him what's going on. The guy jumped and was all like "I'm watching my trucks"
"What's movie is being shot here?" RW inquired
"Martha Stewart movies.."
"oh..sounds...interesting.."
"well, as you can see, I'm very enthused (sarcasm)"
"we're just explorers looking for cool locations looks like a nice lot"
"uhm..yea..if you're into that, there's a lot of gay activity in the park of the male persuasion."
"yeah...ok.."
RW drives away, and we all go WTF?!
After passing a few more hamiltons and me messing with Bard on the radio we see an abandoned hotel, it looked awesome.
~1 am
Nightbird begins to ascend the fire escape ladder when we some weird guy staring at all of and slowly backing away, but still facing us until he's gone. We just figure he was all like "wtf" but didn't care much. After totally looking all over the building we see no enterences. Bard starts kicking up some wood on a window and it makes a lot of noise. After a while we begin to head back to the car but then Bard and take another look and figure there actually might be a way. So we climb back onto the roof and find a pretty good enterence, it just needed rope because of a 15 foot drop. Then we get a call on the radio "police". It was at that point we knew we were screwed. I fixed up the area so it looked like we didn't mess with anything and at this point we can see that the building is surrounded. Bard suggest we make a choice to hide, but I know if we're caught hiding we're guilty. So I told Bard I think our best choice is to go with innocent. I told him to lay down flat on an inconspicous part of the roof pretending to rest. "We're up here enjoying the breeze and night sky"
"What about the radios?"
I tuck the radio in my pocket not wanting to leave it for them to maybe find on their own. This radio is no normal radio, it's a kenwood, better than theirs and you need a permit to be in possession of.
"After a few minutes of them scouring the roof the finally see us.
"I found them!..GET UP, KEEP YOU HANDS AWAY FROM YOUR POCKETS. Come slowly to me."
"I'm sorry sir, we were just taking a rest."
"Is there anyone else here on the roof?"
"no"
"Noone? Because we'll check"
"There's nobody, just us."
The cop frisks me and pulls out the radio and maglight.
"Why do you have these things?"
"It's because we were playing manhunt."
"Do you have anything else?"
"Just my wallet in my right pocket"
He takes my wallet and looks at the ID.
"Go down and wait by the car, don't try to f**k off cause I have your wallet and ID"
I head down and wait by the car.
Bard comes down and I counted around 4 squad cars surrounding the building. The bald cop starts like harrassing me about trespassing and b&e.
"Do you have any other types of ID on you? Like a birth certificate."
"no; ha, like I'd carry my birth certificate around with me."
"How many people were with you?"
"I'm not sure, I didn't count."
"How many people?"
"I'm not sure"
"The report was 5, where are the others?"
"I don't know, they left and we sat on the roof to enjoy the night."
"Where are they?"
"I don't know, maybe home or something"
"Where are they?"
"I said I didn't know, for all I know they could be at Tim Hortins right now.."
"Can you contact them on the radio?"
"I guess so if they're still in range and on the right frequency"
I press call and go "hey guys"
The cop looks at it and goes "it's not even on!"
I didn't do that on purpose btw, I thought it was on.
"whoops...hey guys"
roadwolf's voice comes up "hey"
I was totally hoping he wouldn't respond, I should've been more clever with it...arg...
"Get over here there's some cops that want to see you."
at this point I hope he just ignores me...and he does..
The cop goes to the car where the guy is writing up my ticket.
I say "Didn't know it was illegal to enjoy a nice view on a building with such easy access."
"Well now you know, and you'll have paperwork to remind you of that."
"How much of a fine am I looking at here?"
"$70, and you need to pay within 15 days."
"arrrghhh, can't afford that..."
"well, take it easy.."
I wait like 10 min for Bard to finish and we head out. We walk for a while before contacting RW again. Some cars with the radio antenaes for scannind follow us quite a while. Bard and I do some menouvers and split up and then meet up a quickly get scooped up by RW where we reflect about how awesome the ticket is and how we're going to pay for it. Both Bard and I are totally broke, but I'm sure we'll find a way.
~3 am
Boffo and I get dropped off at our places and wish everyone a happy easter. I come home and type this looong journal, sorry about that...I'm gonna go to sleep now...you'll see pics of the events later...
PS: This is actually a VERY short story of the events...if you know me irl you'll get more details, but I'm to lazy to type it all...
