I'm no longer married to a cop!

[Padraig18]

Tony just finished his last shift of work before starting law school. I'll have 6 weeks with him ALL to myself!

:D

[GOPisEvil]

1. Pace yourselves...

...you've got six whole weeks. :D

[VelmaD]

4. Yup, and make sure y'all stretch...

wouldn't want you to sprain anything. ;)

[Padraig18]

7. We've been in training for over 2 years...

:evilgrin:

[AspenRose]

2. I didn't know CL was going to Law School!

Way cool! Congrats.

[TX-RAT]

3. Tell him congrats and good luck in law school.

I did 21 yrs with the Sheriffs Dept.

21. TX-RAT

had no idea, you sly-guy! liberal policeman are rare, in my experience. i frequently had to mask my political views in self-defense. difficult; it's pretty obvious i'm a loudmouth. did you experience problems?

hope my anti-cop rants haven't offended you, broad generalizations. not ALL cops are RW neonazi klan-assed robots!


:hi:

[StaggerLee]

5. Six weeks???

You crazy kids!
:D

Have fun!

[ronnykmarshall]

6. Does he get to keep the hand cuffs?

[Padraig18]

8. Oh, yeah!

We now have TWO sets! ;)

[Bertha Venation]

9. cool! but, bummer, 'cause I was going to ask him a cop question

I guess he'd still know . . . Why do some drivers clearly identified (by license plates, window stickers, etc.) as police or associates of police drive like the most arrogant, yes-as-a-matter-of-fact-i-do-own-the-road, "get the cheney out of my way, I don't care if you flip because of how I passed you" ASSHOLES?!

phew! I don't necessarily require an answer, but I sure feel better for getting that out!

So congrats on your six weeks!

[TX-RAT]

13. I've arrested several individuals for DWI that had those stickers

They think it will make a difference in the outcome. WRONG

[Bertha Venation]

18. Glad to hear it.

In my pique, I've assumed (bad girl) that "FOP" or something similar on a car means "free-o-pass." I'm glad to hear that I've been wrong.

I just wish there were more cops or troopers around when I'm left fishtailing at 60 MPH because of the prick that just ripped off both bumpers while cutting around me at 90.

[jukes]

22. i'll echo TX Rat

those stickers, @ best, annoy cops. make them look as if they can be "bought".

i'll admit, sheepishly, that the sight of a shield or star when the driver produces his/her license can get them some slack. scofflaws w/ a badge can get themselves in trouble, though.

[YellowRubberDuckie]

10. You boys enjoy yourselves...

And pace yourselves. You have a while. Congrats, Tony!! And Good luck!!
:grouphug:
Love,

11. As an old friend of mine used to say...

Stock up on Gatorade and pizza... ;-)

[Rowdyboy]

12. Excellent news...

He'll LOVE law school (as he works his everloving ass off).

Michael's been out for a month now, and has one more to go. I love summer!

[cheezus]

14. awww... and he was 89,457 days away from retirement

what a shame

[johnnie]

15. Too...many....inuendos...I....am holding ...................back

Kidding. Have fun and good luck to you both!

[northofdenali]

16. Wooooooooooohoooooooooooooooo Padraig!!!

Congrats, Tony! You guys have a GREAT time before the hard work starts!! :hug:

[DoveTurnedHawk]

17. Awesome, Great for You Guys!

And best of luck to Tony in law school!

DTH, Who Still Thinks Paddy and Tony Are One FINE DU Couple! :D

[m-jean03]

19. Very cool!

Congratulations to him and I hope you guys have a blast. :yourock:

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

20. Good...in my view being a cop is a numbers game

it's only a matter of time before something catastrophic happens whether it is an accident or a deterioration of one's health or body...best wishes to Tony...especially in the first year. :toast:

[testing123]

23. That's a wonderful new start

What type of law is he going to major in?

[Padraig18]

25. General practice.

He wants to be a small-town, solo practicioner.

:)

[jukes]

24. congrats, Padraig

be careful of "honeymoon cystitis"!

[Catshrink]

26. Enjoy your time together!

Once he hits the books, I doubt you'll see much of him.

BTW, did you make a "honey-do" list for him?

[davsand]

27. Such cool news!!!

I assume he's gonna be at U of I unless you guys are moving? If you are staying put, I'd love to meet you two for lumch someday when you are both up Champaign-Urbana way!

Enjoy your time together before 1L hits, and make it an amazing time to treasure!
