Inspector ID Badge

A Termite Inspector?

The picture to the left is a copy of the ID badge my friend used to get into a house as a termite inspector. Okay, maybe this is a long story. While attending Gordon College, our rival dorm had a small rubber pineapple as their mascot, and after much research, we discovered that Matt McNutt had it. Now Matt lived off campus, so that made getting the pineapple just a little bit harder. Matt lived in the basement of his Aunt and Uncle's house, so Abe called up the house, saying that he was from Northshore Pest Control, and asked if it would be okay if he came by to perform a free termite inspection. The people actually said YES, and so Abe was able to drive over to the house and search the entire basement for "termites," while really looking for the pineapple. Our friend Rod stood by in case Abe actually found the pineapple. Then Abe would say that he had to make a call into the office and he would actually call me, and then I would send Rod in with a pizza that the homeowner's didn't order. This would get them up to the front door and away from Abe in the basement so that he would have a chance to grab the pineapple and stash it in his toolbox. Unfortunately, the pineapple wasn't anywhere to be found, so we moved on to try Matt's car...
