I have always used gas and still prefer them for household stuff (driveway, decks etc). However, my new house is packed in tight with the neighbors (that’s what happens when you sign over half your shit, including the sale of the nice house, to someone ... more »

Agreed. What a dumpster fire.

Thanks, and I’ll be reaching out soon. I actually already have my PPL, a bit over 200 hrs. I had a 182J for about three years, but sold it due to the cost. Some life events have caused me to reflect on what’s really important and reminded me that slugging ... more »

You’re quite welcome. Yes, that’s a big part of it. When I got in, the job was a blast. Unfortunately now we are often armed secretaries, with severely limited tools to go after the bad guys. I didn’t sign up to watch crime happen and be powerless to ... more »

Yes. The rubber hardens.

Sgt with a local SO...like agn said, never going to get rich, but decent benefits, take home car, issued phone, and could retire at 46 with 20 yrs (can’t collect until 53 without penalty though, so I’ll stay longer-2% extra for each additional year I ... more »

You’re missing the point. One of the dirtiest riders our sport has seen was expressing displeasure at someone doing to him a very mild version of what he normally does to everyone else. I’m not a Tomac fan. Just can’t stand hypocrites.

Assault? Get real.
