I'm thinking about doing something else on the side, I have too much spare time and the older I get the more I want to do (my poker career is floundering). In the past I spent 8 or so years in law enforcement, 5 with being a cop and 3 being a PI. I loved the PI work, but a career change was inevitable. I'm thinking about opening a PI firm that does background searches and such, I wouldn't do any surveillance because it's too time consuming but at least I could be a part of something that I'm interested in. Have you ever hired one or thought you needed one but didn't know enough about it?
Stay away from my turf: Seriously, I've never found a reason to hire one, but I could see why others would. You could just crack jokes, give your prey a false sense of security, and they'll open right up to you.
One of my friends hired one to follow her husband. She found what she was looking for but didn't really want to find. We talked about it quite a bit-- photos, all-night stakeouts the whole nine yards. She was on the budget plan but she still got her proof. They are still together. He seems to have mended his ways. He's crazy. His wife is a voluptuous and smart Mediterranean beauty. The girl he chased was a dogette-- no accounting for taste.
If you start doing PI work, I think you should only speak in 40's film noir lingo, and wear a trench coat. It might get real hot and sweaty in Houston during the summer, but you have to uphold the PI image.
A man suspected his wife was seeing another man, so he hired the famous Chinese detective, Chen Lee, to watch and report any activities while he was gone. A few days later, he received this report... MOST HONOURABLE SIR: YOU LEAVE HOUSE. I WATCH HOUSE. HE COME TO HOUSE. I WATCH. HE AND SHE LEAVE HOUSE, I FOLLOW. HE AND SHE GO IN HOTEL. I CLIMB TREE. I LOOK IN WINDOW. HE KISS SHE. SHE KISS HE. HE STRIP SHE. SHE STRIP HE. HE PLAY WITH SHE. SHE PLAY WITH HE. I PLAY WITH ME. I FALL OFF TREE. I NOT SEE. NO FEE, CHEN LEE --------- Blow ET up, Blow ET up...

when i read this at work, i was like PI? What the **** do you want to do math problems for? 3.14? I come home, and look at this thread at 2:13 AM, and I knew exactly what you meant. I know now, because it's 2:13 in the middle of the night when I get my stalk on. I am focused right now. I just need some cell phone numbers, house numbers, I have license plates, TDL numbers, freaking signatures. I have job locations, and job phone numbers. I'm going to take this b**** out.
Man, just thinking about this. I want to ride around in a van that says Kam's Flowers on it, or Kam's Oven Fresh Pizza on the side. That would be awesome. There is this spanish channel called Secretos: Houston. I LOVE that show. No clue what they are saying, but it's pretty good.
I agree with you on that. On some of the fights they have on there, I see some of them laughing. And the crazy ways the PI sneaks around. I wish I understood what they were saying.
Swoly-D, invite BmwM3, and myself to your house so we can watch secretos so we know what they are saying. The chicks look good. I like how they have cameras set up and everything.
