A story about a Twitter joke gone very wrong …

Okay so this is a true story involving a now ex twitter follower of mine ( she absolutely wants to see me dead now… beyond dead, maybe twice dead!!) and myself…

Now I have a strange sense of humour, and up until last year, I didn’t think posting silly jokes and pranks on twitter would amount to anything, I mean who am I? nobody that’s who, I am not a celebrity, I am not famous, I am not an online force of any sorts, and I don’t have any cult followings like some folks on Twitter , no I am none of that, I am just another screen name on social media… nothing more…. oh but apparently I do have 1 teensy special ability, it’s my super power…. and that ability is… I can get you arrested and investigated for Murder…. but my ability and superpower depends GREATLY on you the Twitter follower, or Reader and your actions….

So here’s the story …. Now about a year ago I posted a simple joke on Twitter, and I assumed no one would actually DO IT !! … but alas one of my followers did actually carry out the joke… this is the Joke : Text : Okay it’s done, I hid the Body, Now what? to a completely random number and freak someone out.

Welllll a Twitter follower of mine in Saskatoon… actually carried out that joke and she sent it to a random stranger…. who as it turned out was an elderly gentleman in another town , to say that the prank text freaked him out is a big understatement!! … The Gentleman who is a concerned citizen promptly calls the RCMP and shows them the text… now the Mounties.. thinking they have a Murder on their hands, and by the sounds of the text, it may be a hit from some organized crime …. have no fear Dudley Do Right is on the Case!! and they go public with the story of a possible murder , if anyone knows anything they should assist the investigation by calling crime stoppers …. and they begin to pour resources into finding the unknown murder the body and the hitman involved so they can nail the crime organization responsible…. and all this is splashed across the local news… and camera focuses on the old gentleman who recounts his tale of terror at receiving this text message….

It took the Mighty RC’s about a week to trace the number back to a woman in Saskatoon …. and yep they arrested her ass.. and were gonna throw the book at her and charge her with Murder …. she was a 40 something year old soccer mom with a couple kids a minivan and absolutely no criminal record, not even a speeding ticket … her husband just happened to be away working… the ever diligent Fuzz patrol… called his employer to see if he was indeed still alive and at work as his wife claimed, or if she whacked him then hid his body !! needless to say her husband showed up at the cop shop in a quick hurry !

She repeatedly told the police it was a joke that was posted on twitter, she thought it was funny and just did it!needless to say @ButchCountry went dead silent for about a month…. and thankfully since I use a wireless internet Turbo stick… my IP address registers to a cell tower in Edmonton Alberta ( not sure why.. but it does , I am not an Alberta Resident) … I went silent online…. and waited for the RCMP to find me and give me the what for and escort me to the local detachment in the city. ( they never did find out who ButchCountry is , nor were they able to locate said prankster) Thank GOD!!

The RC’s raked that poor woman over the coals for 16 hours trying to get her to confess to a murder that never happened! .. all she had to say to the reporter who dogged her when the police released her was that it was a prank she read on twitter and thought it would be funny to do… she also said the person who posted the prank was an @sshole and that she will never do anything like this again.

So now I don’t post pranks and jokes on Twitter… as I learned even a nobody like me can on occasion through my superpowers… make some people think that a prank is a good one worthy of carrying out! … I never in a million years thought anyone would actually do it!

my twitter feed exploded and I went from just 400 followers to over 1000 in 1 week lol ,I keep things pretty low key on twitter , it’s a lesson learned all the way around … and yes I have thought of many other diabolical pranks that I could be posting on twitter since… and it takes me a great deal of self control NOT to post them, but i don’t want to see anyone else actually pay attention and actually pull one of my stupid pranks off… as it turns out the authorities really do not have a good sense of humour!

So that’s the story about how I learned the power of the interwebs and to mind what I say online as there are people out there crazy enough to actually do what I jokingly suggest might be funny!!

So that’s all for now, Remember Folks: express your love often,never take tomorrow for granted,and be kind to others.

Let me talk about my Wife then and now

I remember the first time I met my wife, it was 17 years ago but seems just like yesterday.

it truly was and is a fairy tale romance, it was also love at first sight, see she is just so much more than my wife, she is also my soul mate, yes that may sound cliche’ but it’s true, if you are fortunate enough to meet your soul mate you WILL know, your very soul cries out for joy.

back to the fairy tale , the first time I saw her she was just 15 years old, my car crapped out in front of her house, I had a friend with me and while fixing the car I glanced up and saw a blonde angel working in the flower garden, I didn’t know it then but our paths were destined to cross a bit later in life, I made an off handed comment to my friend that someday I was going to marry that girl there, my friend laughed and commented about jail bait, I chuckled at hys comments but something deep within me knew that the girl in the flower garden would someday be my wife.

Fast forward 7 years, the girl in the garden was a mere faded memory, I ran an ad in the local paper for a queer friendly room mate, male, female, somewhere in between, didn’t matter as long as they could pay their share. a couple days pass and I get a knock on the door, I open the door and damn near had a heart attack, there at the door stood that angel from the garden 7 years ago! my heart soared and my soul cried for joy, I rented her the room in a heart beat.

I was dumbstruck and afraid to say or do anything to scare her, I didn’t make a pass flirt or do anything except cook fabulous dinners for her, about 3 months into having her as a room mate, she out of the blue planted a kiss on my lips… and yes my knees did buckle, at that moment we went from room mates to dating.

Now let it be known I am not a hopeless romantic, I am awkward and clumsy and not always sure of myself….she had to initiate the first moves, she had to initiate the bedroom etc. I was never good with dating and was and am not a player, I’m actually quite quiet and reserved.

But she had me hook line and sinker, I’d do anything for her, thankfully she likes the simple things in life.

The government listed us as common law 6 months into our relationship, we made it legal after being together just over 1 year, our anniversary is February 14th…believe it or not that is pure coincidence , it wasn’t planned, it just happened.

we talked about having a kid, I knew damn well that I wasn’t going to be a Mom, it’s just not in me to be THAT kind of parent, nope I am way to Butch to even entertain such a thought ( read chicken shit into that) 4 years into our marriage I figured out and arranged (with her consent) for her to get pregnant, no fuss no muss no strings attached, it was fast easy and didn’t cost a dime.

9 months later my wife gave birth to a 8lb baby boy, who I nick named Hammy (Hamster) Now my wife is a great Mom, she certainly was born to be a Mom, and our son looks just like her, he has my temper though lol, our son grew up calling me Dad, now at age 12 he still calls me Dad.

My wife is such an amazing woman, she is very passionate about life, she is a very kind caring person, the type who hugs strangers upon meeting them, she is a person that people want to open up too, she was a daycare teacher for 16 years and just last year decided to switch careers and become a cook…and she did.

I have had 17 glorious , wonderful, passionate years with her, and everyday I wake up, thank God, and fall in love with her all over again.

Now things have changed in our lives, I still fall in love every day with her, I now pray to God for 1 more day with her, I’m a deeply devoted hersband , I stopped working this year to take care of my Wife, you see she has stage 4 lung cancer, it’s a rare aggressive cancer called synovial sarcoma, there is no cure, at most she has 3 months to a year left, and I will be at her side all the way to the bitter end

Gone are the days of her laughter , our camping and hiking trips, our special time together, gone is the twinkle in her eyes and her mischievous smirk, now it’s a struggle for her to breathe, the color has faded from her skin and she has a profound sadness about her.

I do what I can for her, administer her meds, make sure her oxygen is flowing, bathe her, whisper sweet nothings in her ear, and tell her it’s okay to let go, that Hammy and I will be ok.

It’s just so hard, she turned 40 in January, she was full of life then, excited about our summer vacation plans, that all changed abruptly in less than 2 months. it’s not right, my wife never ever smoked, never drank, never did drugs and she gets struck down by an insidious cancer.

I’m sorry I have to stop here for now, the pain and heart ache I feel is just too much, I will continue in another post as soon as I can.



Do me a favor, hug your loved ones and express your love for them often
