over the years i1`ve had many close friends on one department or the other, i my self have been part of a twp. volinter group. What most people dont realise is that police officers deal with the armpit of the earth 90% of the time the other 10% are regular people that will lye to try to try to avoit a citation. Now how in the Hell is a officer supose to keep a good attitude dealing with that. I am a verry patient pirson but could not deal with that on a daily bacis. TO THE ONES THAT DO AND CAN THEY DESERVE ONE HUNDRED TIMES THE CREDIT THAT THEY GET !!!!!!!!

Talking Here I sit to catch up and take a break...

and it is STILL coffee and cop shop talk...where's de doughnuts?

hubby's birthday today- since he didn't have an opinion on what he wanted to do- we went to a kid's place for birthdays. ate picnic food, ice cream and
now being too stuffed for go karts, we played a rousing round of minature golf. we tied but he did win a plastic army man. who said grumpy, old guys can't have fun?

okay- my goal is to ship out the boxes of toys to MADHAT for dispersion in any means.

anyone have this happen? one truck needs something; other truck gets same problem.
boat refrigerator went South, kitchen refrigerator did same.
harley had wire corrosion drain battery, and play 'find the bad wire'
boat outdrive tilt motor did same thing.
I don't even park these things in the same spot...
it's a conspiracy I tell ya, a conspiracy cause I WAS saving money...

HAVE A SAFE TRIP HOME CHAIKWA, rest up for teaching normal sounding people now, in Michigan....

Just a few pics of past and presant... The first one is in March of 05, my first cycle. I was a 5th hat. The second one is a picture of me, the 4th hat and 3rd hat from that platoon... we are all SDI's now. If you would have told us that we'd be SDI's, we would have laughed in your face... We were a little...motivated...

Howdy, what's going on around this place? Where is the ?
Haven't had time to hang around here much, this kind of explains what I've been up to:
MCKINNEY, Texas, May 22, 2007 /PRNewswire/ -- Raytheon Company's (NYSE:
RTN) Network Centric Systems has delivered the first two Multi-Function
Radio Frequency System (MFRFS) radars for integration into the Quick Kill
Active Protection System that Raytheon is developing for the U.S. Army.
MFRFS is a state-of-the-art, electronically-scanned, solid-state phased
array radar system that can detect and track a full spectrum of threats to
current and future Army vehicles. These threats range from rocket propelled
grenades fired at close proximity to more distant threats such as kinetic
energy projectiles.
In addition, MFRFS, the system selected as the common
radar for Future Combat Systems (FCS) manned ground vehicles, is capable of
supporting a number of radio frequency functions including surveillance,
high- band secure communications and combat identification.
"Delivery of the MFRFS marks an important milestone in the development
of Raytheon's Quick Kill Active Protection System," said Colin
Schottlaender, president of Network Centric Systems. "MFRFS has achieved
all milestones to date, and we are confident it will be integrated
successfully on current force platforms."
Raytheon's Quick Kill APS is capable of providing a "bubble" of
coverage to protect current force Stryker, Abrams and Bradley vehicles, as
well as FCS platforms, from a broad range of threats from any direction.

With the MFRFS delivery and progress anticipated over the next few months,
Raytheon's Quick Kill APS will be integrated on a Stryker for end-to-end
system demonstrations and design verification testing beginning late this
summer.
Somebody has to have Madhat's back when he's done with his little "vacation" on the Island

Hey Rob, we're having and emergency drill today and I got selected as one of the station evacuees. Got any fun toys to play with while I'm evacuating the station? (laser arrays, ultralow frequency pulsar arrays, or even good old hand grenades)
Gotta leave here and proceed to the evac site with windows rolled up and AC off. Just a thrill a minute and they never stop.
Hey, what's that bright green zzzzzZZZZttttzttTZTTZTtttttttvvvv ttttt m,sa;bwbmb
