I could had been a real hero.

I could had been a real hero,

it started slowly over a number of years before that I often wondered what was so wrong I
was nearly obbessed with finding out I read local news papers watched the tv news talk shows
and radio news and talk shows sadly I never heard anything to catch my attention so life
was even worse now and I felt this irresonable feeling . fed up I decided to move far from
the state I was born and lived all my life it was a decade ago. my only transpertation was a bicyle
and a cargo trailer loaded with all the modern gear it was july 4,1999 and I was detremined
so I followed the rural roads from ottawa illinois north east planning for east moline as a
set goal it was hot and the land is mostly farm corn soybeans and small rural towns and I
rested plently it was perhaps 1:00 pm when I rested near two rail road overhead bridges as I
choose the last one so I sat lit up a sig (bad habit) but relaxing had a drink and just sat
admired the change of scenary there was a illinois power transformers off the side of the
bridge in the right away are just off the road by me so Im just looking and what the ? I
notice this odd looking object 1 1/2 inch pipe 18inches long and a 1/4inch pipe coming from
the middle (a high tec wick) then I realized holy ----- its the unibombers calling card it
was that time of he was out terrorizing northern illinois with pipe bombs I had a cell phone
but sensed it wouldnt be so wise to use it and I waited by hoping to flag down a cop or
somebody a cop did go by within half hour but was going to fast by time I noticed him and
I rode off the town was only a mile or so and there he was acting strangely driving in the
bussiness areas like he suspected a problem and drove away just as fast I got fed up and
continued I ended up in moline at 1am pulled over by a city cop just as I left the city on
the out skirts of town slams on his tires and tells me through his drivers side door its un
safe reffering to my bike luckly there was a campsite across the road and the mississippi
river was there too by morning up gone by late day I was into lowa headed north.
another week and half I was in northern minnesota where I lived ever since.
oops
