I was 18 years old when I first met Dusty. He was a tall, blonde guy who was always laughing and joking around. He was
around 17 at the time. He was friends with my cousin, Dave. I used to spend a lot of time at Dave's house. One night Dave
had some friends over and I was there too. I think it was in October of 2000, and we decided to go out and burn some tires.
So after a bunch of us got back from that, another friend of mine, Daniel, told us that someone had burnt a bunch of tires
on Friendship Hollow Road. So me and Dusty got in his car and went to see them for some reason. Somehow we ended up in Willete,
checking out Halloween decorations. Dusty spotted this strobe light flashing out from under this satalite dish that was turned
upside down to look like a UFO. He decided he wanted it, so he pulled his car up in front of the house, left the car in drive
and turned it off, then he took off his shirt for me to hold over the interior light so no one would see it. Then he crawled
up the driveway and reached under the satalite dish and grabbed the strobe light and then he ran back to the car. He handed
me the strobe light and tried to start the car, but he left it in drive so it wouldn't start. Me and Dusty both were panicking
for a minute until he realized what he'd done, then he put it in park and started it up, put it back in drive and we drove
off. On the way back to Dave's house, me and Dusty came up with a story to tell everyone else. He said we'd tell them that
we had gotten shot at trying to get the strobe light. When we got back to Dave's house, that's what we told them, too. He
told me not to tell them any different, and I never did. Everytime since then that I have told that story, until now, I have
told it just like we told it that night!
