Side Note: giving tours/working on the kidd is tier 1 community service after a DUI


Not giving tours, no. But, working on the Kidd, yes. I polished every piece of brass on that ship in 1997 for 32 hours one week to fulfill my obligation to the community... Where did I get the idea to do it? When I was booked in 1996, I shared a cell with a dude who had committed a murder a few months ago and he worked for a few years on the Kidd in maintenance. He got mixed up in drugs and will ever see the light of day again (LINK ). He told me that he used to supervise community service guys as part of his job and gave me his contact there. He was a super nice kid and it just shows you some of the dark paths that drugs can lead you down. I even remember at that point him taking full responsibility for it and even said that he would probably get the death penalty, which he did, but it was reduced to life a few years later.
