THINGS I THINK I HEARD ON THE SCANNER - Streaker Spotted At County Park

(09/17/2003)

So far this weeks highlight of "Things I Think I Heard On The Scanner" (and really did) has to have been broadcast yesterday by Calhoun Control. A call was received for law enforcement to investigate a streaker at Calhoun County Park. Seems a nude man dashed across a grassy field, but Deputy Sheriff Ron Bandy investigated and found no such culprit. Yesterday did have a 70s kind of feeling to it, and wandering around Grantsville a number of likely names were dropped as the streaking person. Various Grantsville citizens suggested certain people as the "Most Likely Streaking in 2003," but we refrain from name dropping. Last week's "Things I Think I Heard On The Scanner" went to the caller who wanted law enforcement because there were "some people walking down the road I don't know." Calhoun's scanner listeners are infamous for passing on hot scanner news, so if you didn't hear it yourself, someone will call you on the phone with the report. A neighbor of ours went into scanner shock, lost in isolation and silence, called at 11 p.m. for help to put up their outside antenna after the wind blew it down. One of my favoite scanner announcements: "A woman says she saw a large headed bird, seven feet tall, peaking in her window." That was when our neighbor Phyllis Kerby was visted by an Emu.
