Engineers, Designers, Lawyers, even an IT guy at the U. S. Senate. Damn impressive. I hope the teenagers on the board pay attention to this as much as anything.

Police Sergeant, just finished 25 with a small (about 100) Officer Department. Worked Narcotics, CIB and about 12 years with the regional SWAT team. Now just concentrating on being a Dad and husband.
I'm thinking on going back to get my teaching certificate....it'd give me some extra cash for the FD.

Paid for the mods to my second FD by totaling my first one. Ins. Co. gave me five grand more than I paid for it. Let me remove the spoilers and turbo timer and then lowered my rates.

I just had a baby girl this past sept. and yes I am married, for about two years. I still have time to work on the 7 but I have to say, my wife understands my love for the 7.

I spent 20 years as a General Motors dealer "drive-ability specialist". I loved the challenge and competition of working on commission. My normal day was up at 4:30 AM, run 10 miles and go to work. Well, 20 years of bending waisted my back, so now I am my wifes house boy. Life is good.

I'm trying to get a job pouring concrete in Iraq but it seems none of the employers I interviewed with wants to give me a firm start date - something about the ungratefull summabitches Iraquis who hadn't realized that we have given them the liberty to rob, kill and cause a lot of mayhem - a gift of magnificient proportion if you asked me.

Is this for real?
