    Speeding fine? Just switch the road sign

    That is correct...he technically would be speeding but what officer is going to write a ticket for doing 3 miles an hour over. Yeah, I've heard stories of cops writing tickets for that, but I have never known anyone in our agency to write anyone for doing a few over the speed limit. I probably...

    Oregon Firefighters Now REQUIRED to Speak Spanish

    A second language is not required here either. The problem with our department is that there is no additional incentive for officers to learn a second language. In some agencies, officers get paid a little more if they know second and third languages. Here, we don't get anything extra. I know it...

    Speeding fine? Just switch the road sign

    Interesting story. Just note that we do not get promoted on the number of tickets we write. I have written under 50 tickets in my entire career. I usually do warnings except for the times somebody does something extremely stupid in front of me (blows red lights, passing on double yellow, etc).

    North Korea threatens U.S.with Nuclear war!

    I do disagree with some of the things that Bush has done as well and would like to have seen some things done differently. At least he is doing SOMETHING. Before Bush, we had terrorist attacks against this nation and nothing was ever done about it. I would have commended Clinton (and would have...

    North Korea threatens U.S.with Nuclear war!

    You are right. He is not a warmonger like Bush. Instead lets cut the military so its hanging on by a thread, stick our heads in the sand...and then wait for countries like North Korea to launch 'test' missles at us....yeah...that sounds about right.

    Israel warns: free soldier or PM dies.

    This kind of shows the attitude of terrorist organizations. Some are under the belief that if you give a terrorist what they want, they will stop terrorising. That isn't true and I'm not sure why so many people believe that it will. Israel has suffered from terroristic acts against its nation...

    North Korea threatens U.S.with Nuclear war!

    One thing I find amusing (and scary) about this whole thing is North Korea's "We have a right to have nuclear power plants....we won't use it for a bad thing". Then the people in the US protest against Bush saying "Give Korea nuclear power...they aren't a bad government anymore....George Bush...

    I don't mention them because I don't want to be spamming the board with stuff like that. If you are interested, send me a message and I'll let you know.

    D.C. Floods close Gov't Buildings today

    A guy from the National Weather Service was saying today that this type of event happens once every 300 or so years....

    D.C. Floods close Gov't Buildings today

    Ditto as the others have said. I cannot remember us getting this much rain at any given time other than when we take a direct hit from a hurricane. Our area measured close to 12 inches of rainfall between Friday and this morning and more was expected. Some areas got even more than that. I do not...
