Ah, Bremerton

The Kitsap (formerly Bremerton) Sun recently provided the world with not just one, but two fascinating and thought provoking articles recently.

Our first adventure begins on Little Valley Road, which admittedly is in Poulsbo not Bremerton, but it's close enough for government work. It seems that some repo men came to repossess a truck but failed to notice that the owner was inside at the time they began towing it away. Witnessing the event and jumping to the conclusion that his brother was being kidnapped, our hero leapt into action, hopped into his own truck in hot pursuit, and hit the tow truck. I can only hope my own brother would do the same for me.

From there we progress to the police being called to investigate reports of three naked men urinating on cars. Now this is not entirely newsworthy, at least not by Bremerton standards but what makes this story special is this:

Witnesses said one was completely naked, one wasn’t wearing any pants and they
couldn’t see the third man because the other two were on top of him, they said.
The witnesses said they heard somebody yell “return of the Jedi” while the three
were naked and entwined.
Why would three men in, as one commenter so eloquently put it, naked, pants-less or in a quantum state of attire, shout a movie name for no apparent reason? Why, to add hilarity to the whole situation of course as well as provide fodder for some fantastic comments, my favorite being: "I find your lack of pants disturbing."

You gotta love Bremerton.
