same here. I didn't know there was such magic in the list above. I guess
some folks are more easily impressed than others.

obviously. I've seen these clowns escalate a next to nothing to 3 cars
and guns drawn in less than 2 minutes.

or the car chase where the watch commander told them to end pursuit and
they kept going until someone was dead?

or the drug raid on a warrant based on lies that ends with a guy shot in
the face with a riffle for a "furtive movement"? (like the cop knows
what furtive means)

or shopping at Costco. video missing, won't play 911 call, and shooting
in a crowd of people?

but hey --- if all I had to do is get around an "inquest" I probably
wouldn't care either.

funny --- I've got two Metro cops for neighbors and several as friends
and that's about how they describe their work mates. "Ring the bell and
watch them go" is how one of them describes the Pavlovian reactions some
of these morons operate under.

wish you hadn't told him --- it would of been a great way to thin the herd.

sometimes you've got to put your hand on the stove a few times to really
get it.

I actually DID live somewhere that housing was being built faster than
telephone service was made available. I used to take their calls... they
were NOT pleased when we had to say that we didn't expect to be able to hook
them up until the following year.

This is the first place I've lived, as an adult, that the power didn't go
out for some reason or other mostly related to it's being above ground and
here it's below in most areas.

Also, my letter carrier here told me that he doesn't have cable service
where he lives in the south west.

last 3 places I've lived, spanning probably 20 or so years I haven't had
issues --- even in a minor hurricane, in FL.

he must be pretty far out then ---- there's not many places that don't
have cable here. there are a few --- but I very seldom run into that in
my journeys.
