It has a pretty funny video and I downloaded the pdf, and it looks pretty cool. I am going to try it out. It is www.ticket-gone.com Let me know what you think...

You know how Alfred Hitchcock had a fear of cops, and so every movie had scary cops in it? I might have to do that with my books. Not that I have his talent, but I sure do have his fear of the fuzz.Brodi Ashtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13895732483547245372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6131409629757210790.post-34537765731896219532009-06-01T15:05:42.276-07:002009-06-01T15:05:42.276-07:00Bro, I forgot about the J-walking in the alley sto...Bro, I forgot about the J-walking in the alley story. You really do have the weirdest encounters with cops. Perhaps they remember you form your reporting days. Did you step on a few cop toes in your pursuit of the story?

I also seem to recall you getting a parking ticket at the U, and you sent in the check along with a note.<br /><br />The note said something like, "Blow it out your..." followed by a couple words I daren't say. Maybe I should try that approach next time.Brodi Ashtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13895732483547245372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6131409629757210790.post-39252572840289288102009-06-01T13:00:37.086-07:002009-06-01T13:00:37.086-07:00I remember getting pulled over on Wander when I "r...I remember getting pulled over on Wander when I "rolled through" the stop sign. It was a newly placed stop sign and I swear the cop was there at the beginning of the placement of the stop sign just waiting to give tickets to people who roll through that particular place. He showed no mercy, but rather couldn't wait to show his power over me. I called Holladay City to file a complaint but just got an answering machine. I know our world is a better place because of police men but I sometimes wonder if they really need to be so rude.Erin Gublerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18195306099293850936noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6131409629757210790.post-79864565346679598562009-06-01T12:02:08.207-07:002009-06-01T12:02:08.207-07:00Sal- I'm glad you feel the pain.

Although, I live by the mantra that the speed limit means this number plus 15 (at a minimum). J-walking huh?

I pay their paycheck. Is the word public SERVANT a joke these days? <br /><br />I understand they deal with a lot of losers, and I understand to some degree it's self-preservation to treat everyone they see like a criminal. I have very nice family members who are police, and I would like for them to keep themselves alive. <br /><br />But if cops feel they deserve to be respected, they have to give some first. So many seem to not believe that most of us are decent citizens trying to make their job easier.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
