I do find it hard to understand that anyone could criticize the police for releasing a tape of the victim robbing a store the same day as it definitely speaks as to his mindset and it tells me they were on the ball with their investigation. He is a thug and should be dealt with as such.

Thanks Denny and Mark, and you too Moldy. These things happen, and are never any fun. Step-MIL's kids called Chris so she could tell her dad. Between her mom having Alzheimer's and flip-flopping with her health, and her dad and his wife, things have been rough on Chris for a while. So, of course, I have to worry about her.

Commission usually means talking somebody into spending money they'd rather spend on something else, not something I'm suited for.
Sold orthopedic implants for 16 years...no salary, no benefits, no car, no expenses...basically, a sub contractor for a company. Told Drs. how to do surgery....knowledge and service were the keys to makin' money and I made GREAT money in the 80's and early 90's. My "company car" that I provided and wrote off for taxes was a 911 Porsche.

Ain't just family, well over half the people I've known aren't around any more, miss a lot of them.
Had dinner on Sat. with some friends from Jersey. He's Swiss. Whole family from the states is going over for a BIG family reunion to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the building of the family homestead, which some still live in.

It is a freakin' mess. There is a video with a witness in the background stating that the kid turned around and charged back at the cop, just as the wounds might dictate. That big of person charging at me, hands up or in his pants, is gonna get shot if I have a weapon. I am not a huge fan of the police, they have a tough job to do, but I am much less of a fan of thugs, murderers, and thieves.

Not saying a Porsche would be a fun car, but for something I spent a lot of time and miles in, liked Town Cars. Even Minnysota pot holes were hardly noticeable in my Town Car. Miss that tank, but wouldn't be a good fit for my driving now. I'd probably stick with this minivan, except it'll rust past useability in another 5 or 6 years. Probably never see 100,000 miles on it. Hell with hauling people, I want a pickup truck next.

Daughter got to go meet the Swiss relatives, said if she could make a living there, it'd be a lot nicer place to live in than the States. She traveled through a bunch of that country, has a lot of beautiful photos.
