Totally off topic...

I'm pretty sure my CHP got me out of a pretty ugly speeding ticket the other day. I wasn't carrying, but didn't want any surprises coming up in the computer when he ran my license, so I handed him my permit with my license and paperwork He asked if I was armed, I said no, but I didn't want any surprises. He thanked me, ran my license, and told me I should probably slow down (He got me on laser +24). He also asked me what I did for a living...seemed surprised when I said "I own a motorcycle shop".
