Morning all! Hope everyone had a good night. I was back up at the crack of dawn and back at work.
Ed, excellent advice. If you drink, stay where you are or get a cab or DD. I have worked about 10 Drunk Driving fatalities over the past 16 years or so and countless others that involved serious injuries.
Just one time, I'd love to take some of the drunks I deal with to deliver a death notification to a family. Talk about a sobering situation. That's one of the things I hate about this job but have had to do it over and over again. There's nothing worse than going to someone's house at 2 or 3 in the morning and seeing the look on their face when they see me standing at their door. They know it's not good news. To have to tell a mom, dad, son, daughter, or whoever that their loved one is dead is a task I wouldn't wish on anybody. It's one of those things that no matter how you try to approach it, the end result is the same. It's not easy to find the right words and you can't beat around the bush with it. You just have to come out and tell them that you're sorry to have to tell them but so and so just died from injuries resulting from a crash or whatever the case may be.
Not to take away from a family's grief, but this is one of the hardest things a lot of officers have to deal with. You see the entire range of emotions and I've actually had to fight and subdue people that are so distraught that they don't even know what they are doing.
And, the carnage you see in most of these crashes is unbelieveable. I have seen many crashes where body parts have been separated from the bodies. Decapitations, amputated arms, legs, feet, hands, you name it. I've had to deal with drunks wandering out on to railroad tracks and getting run over by trains. Drunks getting obliterated by passing tractor trailers on the interstate. I've pretty much seen it all and there's little that actually shocks me anymore. The absolute worst ones are kids though. Try delivering a death message to a mom or dad about a child that's been killed by a drunk driver or having to deal with people trapped in a car with their dead family members. Yep, been there, done that.
I know it sounds like one of those drunk driving commercials but don't drink and drive...period. I would much rather be able to talk to all of you on here everyday than have to circulate RIP posts and threads about you on here anytime, any day.

As a site sponser your name should be in green and the tag should be there automatically. Like mine says moderator. It's just put there. You can try and change it go to user cp pick edit your details, way down on the bottom there should be a box that you can edit your tag line. If it dosen't work I'd give Jay a call.

Oddly enough Jake and I got into this conversation last night before anyone started talking about booze on here.
I don't think you have to worry about either one of us, Ed. Jake is smart enough to not drink and drive and I just plain old flat out don't drink. Period. End of sentence.

Good morning everyone.
Thought this might make might make your day-
From the diary of a Pre-School Teacher
My five-year old students are learning to read.
Yesterday one of them pointed at a picture in a zoo book and said,
"Look at this! It's a frickin' elephant!"
I took a deep breath, then asked...."What did you call it?"
"It's a frickin' elephant! It says so on the picture!"
And so it does....

I honestly didn't realize it at the time. I thought you all had crossed it already. I've been up to my ears in paperwork today. Our shift starts at 7AM and today we got busy right then and it's been wild at moments all day. I've gotten a break or two to come visit my best friends here in FTE land though! Hope everybody is having a great day today. Today is my hump day!! Woohoo!!
