There are no stupid questions, just a lot of inquisitive idiots.Life is pleasant. Death is peaceful. It's the transition that's troublesome. --Isaac AsimovLike, where's spyder been?

I see you running, tell me what your running from
Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.
Maybe I should will my cannon to CO-ARF.
Seriously, you do have to stand up sometimes and not be life's bitch.
I'm getting used to dealing with authorities. A developer tried to sneak in a reservoir just west of my neighborhood. The dam would be over 200 feet high with its base about 50 feet above and several 100 yards from my place. The whole neighborhood and others downstream have been at county meetings for a couple of months with more to go. If it goes in I'll have to buy flood insurance and have a house I can't give away. It has been funny to see life long Republicans and Libertarians suddenly care about that stupid jumping mouse or whatever will work.

Steve, good for you!! Nice to see the little folks win at least once in while. From now on you had better consider only transporting that BP cannon securely covered with a tarp of some type.
What agency did the officer work for? Asking for curiosity's sake...

That is Honor, and there are way too many people in this country who no longer understand it.
Douglas County Sheriff.
I sincerely hope I never see him again. With any luck he'll cool down and get on with the rest of his life. From the way he was acting I have visions of him out there right now sawing down the 55 signs. I was surprised it ended up in a trial. I was quite ready to let him rewrite the ticket, sign and pay.

Nah. If you are right, you are right and should stand up for yourself. It is admirable to be willing to accept a lower speed citation, but he needs to be aware of the speed limits and zones if he is going to run traffic.
Congrats, by the way!
