AYE ADAI SI UNCLE BEN

I just love that old man!

I didn't know Ben Gumatootoo(Gumataotao) was the mayor of the fair village of Piti by the sea until last night's tube news.(Hey Mindy, neat pants!) I just loved how animated he was as he spoke of how he plans to keep speeding down in his village, taking the law into his own hands.
I'm not sure how old the mayor is, but he appears to be older than 70, but moving like a 60-year-old.......he's got the 'second wind' and wants to make it known that he's not going to put up with speeders.....he's put on an illegal blue and red light on his mayor's vehicle(how he did that is unkown but he did and I'm kinda glad he got away with it) and he's gonna be the vigilante mayor, chasing the bad guys on his streets......doesn't bother him one bit that some police man gave him a ticket for driving recklessly after chasing a speeder on Marine Drive.......
Of course, mayors probably don't have what he's doing on their job description(actually, probably don't have much on that page other than putting coral down at someone's home when there's a funeral so people can park during the rosary-or a tent) but this old dude means business.........I kinda like his spirit. He's aware that traffic police are on the extinct list and he's doing what they'd be doing if they weren't on the endangered list.......who can fault the man for that? Instead of faulting him for trying to help, GPD should deputize him(and others) for policing their villages......maybe speeders, driving while intoxicated and other crashes would be minimized........
Uncle Ben's a bit kookie, but I think his heart's in the right place.......good on you, uncle Ben(we're not related).....keep up the good work!
