HOW TO CALL THE POLICE WHEN YOU'RE OLD AND DON'T MOVE FAST ANYMORE.George Phillips of Meridian, Mississippi was going up to bed when his wife told him that he'd left the light on in the garden shed, which she could see from the bedroom window. George opened the back door to go turn off the light but saw that there were people in the shed stealing things.He phoned the police, who asked "Is someone in your house," and he said "no." Then they said that all patrols were busy, and that he should simply lock his door and an officer would be along when available. George said, "Okay," hung up, counted to 30, and phoned the police again. "Hello, I just called you a few seconds ago because there were people stealing things from my shed. Well, you don't have to worry about them now because I just shot them." Then he hung up. Within five minutes six police cars, a SWAT Team, a helicopter, two fire trucks, a paramedic and an ambulance showed up at the Phillips' residence and caught the burglars red-handed. One of the Policemen said to George: "I thought you said that you'd shot them!" George said, "I thought you said there was nobody available!"(True Story) I LOVE IT - Don't mess with old people.

I ran across this while surfing. http://www.govdeals.com/eas/itmDisplay.cfm?itemID=11&acctID=1589 Ad says 1984 but it sure looks newer than a 1985. I didn't know they made Venture police bikes.

As most of you know I was cut of by a car last august. initially it was deemed that the driver of the car was 100% at fault. While I was in Germany the final police report came in and based on it findings the insurance Co. decided to hold each of us 50% responsible. the other guy claimed he was in my lane all along and that I came up behind him and lost control. Despite the fact that this guy had no license (it was suspended and drove an uninsured Car borrowed from a friend, the officer gave his version more credibility then mine. She did not even show a left hand turn lane in her report nor took notice of the skid and scrape marks on the pavement which clearly backed up my version of what happened. I did up my own version of what happened included a google arial pic of the intersection indicating vehical positions and movement prior to during and after the accident. I also indicated were the the skid and scrape marks on the pavement were and pointed out that i had shown these marks to both the first officer on the scene and the officer who did the report, and sent this in to the police complaint dept. My complaint was looked into and apparently they were able to verify that there were marks . apparently the officer who took over the investigation was new and this was her first solo report and she had left this fact out of her report. As a result the police dept promptly corrected this error and kindly contacted my insurance co. who has now agreed that the other person is once again 100% at fault. They offered me a decent settlement minus $250.00 should I decide to keep my bike. needless to say I kept my bike and will soon be looking for parts to get it back together for this summer. So there is no misunderstanding I would like to point out the police involved in this were all very nice and treated me with much respect.

Hey if you have a buddy in law enforcement the bulbs out of the stobe lights in a police car are much brighter. Check the light bars that have been damaged or are old, see if you can get the bulbs. I used them they really make a big difference in turn lights. You also can order them from souther police supply, Galls and also check with Fire and Rescue they use the same light bars just different covers. Scott

My father passed away peacefully on Wed morning with all of his immediate family by his side. He truly was a good man. One I was proud to have as my father. Throughout my life he was always there to help, encourage and even criticise both my brother and I. He lived a very full life of 83 years of which 62 were while married to my mother. He retired from the Lexington KY police dept with 29 years of service. Fortunately he was able to enjoy retirement for 25 years. Attached is his photo taken in about 1974. He will be missed. Dennis

New year brings new traffic laws. If you have not already read up on the new traffic laws here is a link to a full article...applies to CA riders... http://cbs2.com/local/new.traffic.laws.2.621080.html Just thought this was worth sharing...especially SB 67 allows police officers to impound a vehicle for 30 days when a person is arrested for street racing, exhibition of speed or reckless driving.

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but I'm afraid we have lost another member. After reading a post on another forum, I found it hard to believe but I checked it out by Google search and found this. Condolences to the family.-Jack Greenwich (AP) _ Police say a man who was trying to entertain his family by putting a penny on the tracks has died after being struck by a train in Greenwich. Police say 55 year old David Buffa of Ripley, New York jumped onto the tracks at the Riverside train station Sunday afternoon to place a penny on a track and show his wife and three daughters how it would be flattened by a train. Sgt. John Rizzitelli of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority says the family members tried to pull Buffa back onto the platform. The Metro-North Railroad train, an express from Stamford to New York City, was traveling at about 75 mph when it struck Buffa. He died immediately. Buffa was a retired police officer from Baltimore, Maryland.

This is just a few of the calls I've had to deal with this week. Fake bomb found in Cutchogue church A beer can filled with change and rags sent the Suffolk County Bomb Squad to a Cutchogue church yesterday morning, Southold police said, after a priest found the item wrapped in electrical tape in the church's donation basket. The Rev. Marian Bicz of Our Lady of Ostrabrama, a Roman Catholic church on Depot Lane, said the 9:15 a.m. service had just ended when he and other church personnel discovered the item. "I just put it outside and called the police," he said. "It was a little scary, but nothing happened, thank God." Members of his congregation had already left, Bicz said. Bomb squad members found the can after they unwrapped the tape, police said. Bicz said he has no idea who could have left the item at the 100-year-old church, which has about 800 families. Then there was this; Cops: Greenport man had fake grenade in bar October 7, 2007 http://m1.2mdn.net/viewad/817-grey.gif A man with a penchant for French fries and bizarre talk caused a scare and evacuation of several Greenport restaurants and bars Friday night when he threatened to pull the pin on what turned out to be a fake grenade, authorities said. Southold Town police arrested John Burezyk, 54, of 506 Main St., Greenport, and charged him with placing a false bomb or hazardous substance, a felony. Burezyk walked into the Rhumb Line Restaurant on Friday night at about 8:50, put a old wooden ammunition box on the table and ordered a basket of French fries and a glass of water, said Terri Schultz, the waitress who served him. He wasn't drinking here. He said that he had just finished a White Russian someplace else," Schultz said. "He must have had more than one, because he was a little out there." Schultz, 41, of Mattituck, said Burezyk ate a couple of fries, paid and left the restaurant, but returned about 15 minutes later and took a seat at the bar. He ordered another basket of fries - which he didn't eat - and mingled with patrons. "He kept saying he was a prisoner of war in Africa, stupid stuff like that," Schultz said, adding that she had never before seen Burezyk, who wore a gray sweat shirt, camouflage-print shorts and boots. His behavior turned from odd to frightening, she said, when Burezyk pulled an oblong-shaped cylinder from his pocket. "He said we should meet him next door at the Whiskey Wind Tavern and he would wait for us to get there before he pulled the pin," she said. Schultz said she had had enough of Burezyk's antics and asked the bartender to throw him out and call police. Southold Town police officers and the Suffolk County Police Department's bomb squad arrived at about 9:30 p.m. and evacuated about 40 people from the Rhumb Line, as well as those in several other establishments on Front Street. Police could not say how many people were evacuated. Bar patrons and others were allowed to return about three hours after the incident began, Schultz said. Burezyk could not be reached for comment yesterday. Southold Town police could not provide arraignment information. I'm afraid to go to work tomorrow..........
