Did you just call me a horny goat?

i'm gonna have to go and disagree with you to a small extent. we dont know what the reckless driving incident was before. it could have been as mundane as backing up into a parked car. reckless driving while on duty is (at least up here in MA) any kind of driving thing from backing into a car or speeding to hitting a bus-load of nuns and killing them all. now does that excuse what he did, no, but it may have been something that was a "just dont do it again" situation. and how many people out there have moving violations in their cars?i've got 2 (speeding and passing on the right) neither endngered anyone but both could be called reckless driving.

also, you have to take into account that this guy's career as a cop is completely gone. he will never again work for law enforcement. and he'll live out the remainder of his days guilt ridden as a rent-a-cop. some would consider that punishment enough.

I've hit that point with the news too. This city is starting to fall apart from the rampant drugs and gang activity. There was a guy stabbed outside a bar 2 blocks from my apartment because he wouldn't give someone a cigarette. It's illegal to smoke in ... well anywhere here now so he was outside the bar smoking at 1am and some guys walking down the sidewalk asks for a smoke, they get into a stupid argument and the guy gets stabbed int he gut and dies in the parking lot. I'm seriously considering moving out of town to try to get away from it, or at least to a quiet out of the way neighbourhood.

Great pictures!

Thanks! I'll like them way more when they're healed. I'm so over this whole swollen feet thing.

Hope you're having a great weekend! Pets are so amusing to watch when they are put into an unfamiliar environment, especially if they aren't used to stairs. So sorry to hear of your loss as well, losing a pet, even after a good long life is awful.

Mecrutio looks like my Cassidy

The dogs were probably just curious. I don't think they would have hurt him - but you probably don't want to try to leave them unsupervised .... Does kitty have claws? if so, trust me, Mecrutio would have told them who is boss
Zoe, the runt and only about 6 1/2 lbs, runs the house. Sometimes, Darren just walks by when she is on the couch and she makes sure to dig her claws on his back side just to show him that she is boss... Poor doggie yelps and runs away with his tail between his legs...

Sorry for your loss, Peace Bill

I think you and I are the same person. When I heard about those glass boxes the first thought I had was MUST GET NAKED THERE! I doubt that will happen because they're in the middle of a giant tourist attraction, but some kind of clothed thing would be so much fun there.

Edit: I wrote my response and hit post before I even read your blog. So I'm editing this to say that I'm super sad for your loss. I love my pets more than I think I'd love kids, I know how much it sucks to lose one that's been with you for a long time. *hugs* to you both.

I'm a big Swift fan. I should probably just pick up a copy of his complete prose at some point and plow through the entire thing. Have you read much of him?

So sorry to hear about Midnight.

congrats.....i think you'll find it much more "laid back" than michigan

Good luck with the new digs babydoll.

I've been thinking of you, doll. Hope everything went well and you're getting settled in!

Hey!

You are very sweet. I'm very glad that we're friends. Believe me, it helps to know that about us.

hey hey hey!

I think both sets look fantastic - hope to see set #1 eventually, and I can't wait to see set #2!

Thanks, I think I will for the sake of sanity

Really like the new profile pic. You're so cute!

Especially if you try to follow all the contradictions throughout the quintilogy--never mind across the various media.
