Or at least until your daughter's through w/ school and the chrome billet hinges are installed.  :o har!  spyder
I've always worked (as much as three jobs at one time), just don't know if I could not work. Don't get it wrong I've been lucky and never had to work hard (manual labor) all day long, but have enjoyed every job I've had. Don't know if I could have no job at all especially at my age now. :nixweiss: Retirement is for old folks and I ain't old yet. :D :D

May God be with each of the families in this time of need. In the 70's and 80's is wasn't so bad. The bad guys we deal with these days don't have any value for the life of another individual. It used to just be other peoples property they hurt. It's going to take a very loud public outcry for anything to be done to keep them locked down longer and overhaul the criminal justice system.
It has been a good ride, almost 36 years, when it isn't fun any longer I am going home. Gotta do something other than riding or playing golf though.

I had to go back and read this again. 36 years?????? You are a bad man. I have 27 and counting and was going to go last year. They sweetend the pot a little and made my life a living hell. I love it and would not have it any other way.

DOOD I love you but I think you are CRAZY!!!!!! I won't make it till I am 63. Hell if I make it 3 more it will be a gift!!!

Thanks for all those comments about age; it is a frame of mind I think. I know I need to get out of the way for the younger guys to come on up. Started at 18 as a cadet; right out of high school, in June of 1973. Barely missed Vietnam; but I have many friends who didn't and I am proud of them and respect that era of guys.
The job I have now is over the motor squad (traffic), mounted detail and tactical; the fun stuff (at least most of the time).
Same here on the pay thing fired00d; need to wait on the pay to balance out after an adjustment last year (takes 3 years here) but I doubt I wait that long. I enjoy my time off though.
This is my first SE (betty blue); traded in my 05 Ultra I got back in '04. :coolblue:

At the seen of the first shooting, some low lifes were gathering around taunting police

1) Those are people that hate America
2) Those are people that have time to taunt police as they have no jobs, don't want no job, & I am confident are receiving "assistance" from us taxpayers.

That should be a prime example of a "target rich live fire environment".  It would be a win/win situation.  The officers get hands on real life experience.  The taxpayers get reduced taxes spent on worthless plans and the ones that survive MIGHT just have a different outlook on life!  I'll even chip in some ammo.
