The Deputy played referee to this natural selection sideshow, joined by Nevada&#8217;s boys in blue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Phantom Ride<\/strong>: A car dumped like a bad date at a local joint, left to collect dust and parking tickets. The Deputy turned impromptu valet, handing out advice on how to vanish unwanted steel guests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Knock-Knock Shenanigans<\/strong>: Local lady gets the jitters when a mystery trucker comes a-knockin\u2019. Turns out, it\u2019s just the dogcatcher playing door-to-door salesman. Deputy dons his Sherlock cap, mystery solved, everyone chuckles, end scene.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bluetooth or Bust<\/strong>: Some joker&#8217;s making the rounds, hunting for invisible sound machines that must&#8217;ve sprouted legs.

Deputy waves the no-no finger and calls in the water brigade. Cue the fire extinguisher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Drunken Monkey Style<\/strong>: Shawn Standlee\u2019s idea of a house party involves getting sloshed and overstaying his welcome. The law swings in, gives him the hook, and it&#8217;s off to the drunk tank for a timeout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>All&#8217;s Well That Ends&#8230;Okay?<\/strong>: Panic call about a tweaker with kids turns out to be a false alarm. Deputy plays peacemaker, finds the family playing Monopoly or something. No harm, no foul, just another day in our high country paradise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Breakup in Aisle Five<\/strong>: Lovebirds turned angry birds squawking outside an apartment. Deputy turns couples counselor, issues a time-out, and they go to their separate corners. Love is dead, long live the soap opera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>The Hulk Visits Ely<\/strong>: Keith A. Hill channels his inner green monster, tears up granny&#8217;s place. Deputy swoops in, cuffs the Hulk-lite for messing with the elderly. Don&#8217;t make Keith angry; you wouldn&#8217;t like him when he&#8217;s angry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Cowabunga, Dude!<\/strong>: It&#8217;s a bovine block party in suburbia, cows checking out the local digs.
