Â A guy i used to work with got upset when i told him i did not expect him to be at my funeral some day. Then i explained as a dead guy....i had not expectations. When he's 98 he's going to buy green bananas. Edited October 28, 2020 by Historian 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When is started out in a rural county as a cop the feeling was totally mutual.  We had a wonderful appreciation for each other.   I work for a larger place now. But that first department was 18 men strong (a couple reserves) and no cop-ettes. The entire department would march in the 3rd of July parade.    The SO would put an extra unit in our area to cover us. I remember after the parade walking through an arts festival held at the same time...and was invited to have a plate of homemade fried chicken, potato salad and collard greens.  We knew the family. They fixed all our cars. That was so log ago..we carried spears for side arms. I drove a Ford Crown Brontosaurus. 1 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
