Re: Let the fun begin! Tropical Depression 1
Hi all, There was lots of wind, heavy rain, and little damage to anything. I was able to get out and go everywhere I wanted; however, there was no beach access on Mustang Island as high tide was rather high :headscratch . The wind did blow water underneath some shingles and it looks like that part o...

Re: Taking the Rider's Safety Course
gigag04, good for you! I took it and learned a great deal. Just pay attention to what they tell you to do and you'll be fine. Some people didn't in my class and got to go home early.

Re: Seattle: Officer Punches woman, caught on tape.
It seems that it took far too long to get the situation under control but then, I wasn't there. At the point of physical confrontation with the lady in pink, it was two against one...with a crowd like that gathering steam, it could have turned out rather badly if one or two others had decided to joi...

Re: Yesterday's What The Heck Moment...
When I came out of the store, I got in the truck and locked the doors out of habit. This is also a good time to evaluate your state of awareness and color codes. Where was she that she came up to your vehicle as soon as you got inside? Was she hiding? In the future, what can you do different? To an...

Re: Someone missing a handgun???
You read my mind Brother. Where is Dr. Phil when they need him. Who in their right mind goes into "shock" over finding a handgun under the pillow of a hotel room? Ridiculous. You would think after reading this the Drury had to call in disaster pyshologists to get the family to start speaki...

Re: Yesterday's What The Heck Moment...
Odd...did you notice if the truck she got into looked similar to yours? She may have just mistaken the vehicle. Anyways, it looks like I need to make locking my car doors right away a habit. Good point but it wasn't mistaken identity. Had she not had meth head teeth and that overall crack head look...

Yesterday's What The Heck Moment...
I had to run over to the nearest CVS yesterday and DID NOT take my pistol nor my dog as I was going to be gone "for a minute". When I came out of the store, I got in the truck and locked the doors out of habit. No sooner did it click, a woman tried to open the passenger door (forcefully) t...

Fishing trip turns into a matter of survival in Nueces Co.
This article came out today in the local paper and t sounds like something right out of Deliverence. It illustrates the need to provide someone with information regarding one's intended whereabouts before getting out in the boonies as well as other aspects of good preparation. http://www.caller.com/...

Re: TV Trash
My main gripe with television is the number of reality shows. It seems that no matter which channel you turn to, there are some "wannabes", or has beens screaming at each other. It's just about all trash...all the time.
Rant over....carry on.

Re: Co-worker Jumped at Gas Station....Dallas, 4-24-10
I had a guy come up on me very early one morning at a gas station in Tucson. I took the nozzle out of the filler hole and pointed it at him. He moved along.

Oh, did I tell you that I got attacked in a parking lot?
I had to run over to Academy the other day and parked in my usual spot under a tree in the parking lot. I got out looked around and decided that there were not immediate threats to my safety and started walking across the lot to the store. I walked about 20 yards and felt something hammer me on top ...

Re: at a loss for words
I read this and I thought of John Wayne and his movie The Cowboys. We've seen what you can do with a boy...how are you when they come a little bigger? I hope prison will not be a pleasant thing for Hayes.
Rest in peace Dominick.
