Job? What's a job! I have been retired for two years now and loving every darn minute of it. Getting ready to hike up Mt. Whitney this summer.
Work was 34 years as an LAPD officer. I spent 26 years as a motorcycle officer, and yes have heard every excuse in the book. The most enjoyable time was 11 years as a motorcycle instructor with the dept. Teaching someone the fine art of motorcycle riding, and hopefully saving their life by proper instruction is by far the most rewarding part of my career............Of course throwing bad guys in jail was fun too..........sometimes

geetrue, good to see/hear from you......Views? My friend we should sit down with a few beers and we could talk for hours. Just amazing what some girls will do or say to get out of a ticket. The "views" were a lot better during the braless era and before seatbelt laws. Have you ever noticed that womens blouses button opposite a guys? A women blouse buttons to the left so it opens to the drivers window side. I believe that was invented by a Motorcop........and of course if it was a particularly great view you had to share it with your partner. :D :D :D

Beach Cleaner, got a great tan but not what I returned to my Homeland to do and now the local rag here has stated that some of the pebbles have been found to be radioactive .. not what I wanted to read.
@Kapitan, if I'd have known your take home was that, I wouldn't have stopped here but carried on south to Essex ?!
