Bachelor Party Mishap; Be Smart

With Spring just around the corner, we can look forward to nature's rebirth, blooming flowers, wedding season, and that time-honoured tradition prior to weddings, bachelor and bachelorrette parties. <br />
<br />
A colleague of mine has recently met the girl of his dreams, fallen under her spell, and asked her to be his wife. The boys decided to celebrate with a night in a "party bus". Let's see how many mistakes we can identify in what happened on this evening.<br />
<br />
The night started well enough. The bus was clean and on-time. The driver was fun and professional. We bar-hopped around downtown, played some pool, had some drinks, told some jokes. It was the start of a great night.<br />
<br />
One of our party had reserved two dancers from a local supplier. We had arranged to pick them up on our bus for a few hours of entertainment.<br />
<br />
The girls were beauties. One, however was completely intoxicated and had brought a full bottle of wine with her. The festivities commenced. Somehow, I wound up sitting at the back of the bus where there was a small table set up. The young ladies wine bottle was on this table, and she frequently came back to fill her glass. I was only to happy to pour for her.<br />
<br />
As the intoxicated dancer undressed, she passed her clothes to me. I foolishly put her bikini top in my inside jacket pocket, as there was no place to hang the clothes.<br />
<br />
The bachelor was shown a great time. The party was breaking up, and several of the party members were also reaching varying levels of intoxication. I got off the bus and went into a nearby bar for a nightcap.<br />
<br />
The rest of the night was a bit of a blur, but I somehow made it home and woke up to the sound of aggressive knocking on my door. I was quite startled to see a pair of local police peace officers on my stoop. I live a generally clean life, and fancy myself a decent citizen, so I invited the police in. They started in with questions about the previous night.<br />
<br />
I'll skip the dialogue and get down to brass tacks. The intoxicated dancer was admitted to a hospital in the middle of the night. She had nearly overdosed on a variety of drugs and alcohol. God bless the toxicology reports for showing what was in her blood so that she could be treated. BUT ... turns out the party bus had a closed-circuit hidden camera. All of the evening's shenanigans were filmed ... including scene after scene of me pouring alcohol for this young lady. <br />
<br />
After a pretty aggressive round of interrogation centering on the issue of whether I had "slipped something into her drinks" I guess the police believed me. I have actually never used an illegal drug in my life and am fairly naive about the whole scene, and I guess this naivete shined through in my bewildered expressions and answers.<br />
<br />
The firm that supplied the entertainers called me next and basically tried to scare me by threatening me with lawsuits if I didn't pay for the girl's hospital charges. I flatly refused any remuneration ... I am not unsympathetic, but this girl had made her own bed with the drugs and alcohol, and I certainly did not feel obligated to help with her medical bills. The bachelor actually came to my rescue by threatening to subpoena the videos and countersue the supplier for sexual harassing him ... things were spiralling out of control.<br />
<br />
Mercifully, the whole issue blew away as quickly as it had blown up, but I was pretty jaded.<br />
<br />
The lesson, gentlemen (or ladies) is not hard to interpret, and I won't spell it out for you line by line. Be smart. Think. Think long-term. If someone appears intoxicated, it is probably best to steer clear, even if it means the party will have to be rescheduled.<br />

<span style="font-family: Times New Roman;"><b>NEVER</b> let the police into your home, as you are implying a <i>lot</i> of consent on your part for LE to search your residence once they are inside. Talk to them outside of your home, even if that means being outside in the weather or out in a hallway. I've refused to let LE into my home even when I knew I had nothing to hide...just on principle. Lazy LE activities should <u><b>NOT</b></u> be encouraged! Warrants are needed for most kind of searches.</span><br type="_moz" />
