A Japanese man was mystified when food kept disappearing from his kitchen. It was the kind of thing you’d ignore at first. He set a few cameras around his home to catch the culprit in the act. After returning from work, he played back the cameras and was amazed to discover a woman emerging from one of the back room closets. He wondered how did she get into the closet, without being seen entering the house by any of the other cameras.
In Laredo the police had a gym next door to their new building. It had been a barracks back when the Air Base was still here and the city had converted it to be used by the officers for physical fitness.
One morning, one of the officers saw a man slipping out the window of the gym. He lifted the window, stepped out, and then closed the window.
The officer approached the man and questioned him. It turned out to be a guy we all called the Ultimate Warrior. The name was coined from James Brian Hellwig; also known as Jim "Justice" Hellwig. Eventually Hellwig renamed himself as the Ultimate Warrior. Part of his trademark was having bands wrapped around each arm above the biceps. The homeless guy in Laredo had bits of rags wrapped around each arm just like the wrestler. So we began to call him the Ultimate Warrior. This Ultimate Warrior had been living in the gym at night when none of the officers wanted to work out. He’d been doing this for months.
