Liebling, You bring up some excellent points but if I could disagree with one thing. One problem with teens today (as you and others have pointed out) is being naive. A young girl *thinks* she is in love and feels that she is in love. If a boy says 'I love you' to her, she takes it with...

Nice piece Alex. I have always been impressed with the quality they put out. Gibson is headquartered in Nashville and I'd like to check out the factory while im down there. I dont know if you've ever heard of Paul Reed Smith guitars (PRS). Their factory is not too far from here and I've been...

Tell me about it. I dont know whats more dangerous...kids on the road driving to school or actually being at school...and yes, i am being sarcasting..our schools are relatively safe..education on the other hand is a different story. and Colorado seems to get the worst of it.

TO was taking legit prescription drugs for his injuries that were prescribed by a doctor. Rush goes to one doctor and says "I'm in pain, can I have pills" and is given pills. He then goes to another doctor (not mentioning that he has been to one already) and says "I'm in pain, can I have...

Tell me about it....I used to work in the media before becoming a police officer so I've seen both sides. What is going to sell more newspapers or grab more viewers? "T.O has allergic reaction to pain pills" story at 11... Or "T.O. attempts suicide by overdosing on prescription pain...

In most (if not all) states it would be illegal. Sex with a minor in Maryland is not necessarily illegal. Maryland has what is known as an 'Age Gap' law. An 18 year old could have sex with a 15 year old because they are only 3 years apart. A 19 year old could not legally have sex with 15 year...

To an extent I agree with you, but the police report does not mention suicide or attempted suicide. The police report mentions an overdose. As Oceanbreeze point out, factual information goes into the report. In this case, the publicist finds him unresponsive and an empty pill bottle. She calls...

Its called the Freedom of Information Act. Police agencies are required to release all information. Here, the only time we are allowed to withhold information is in the case of juveniles and some sex offenses. In those cases, we are only allowed to withhold the name of the person and any...

Steve, I posted a link to Baltimore City's ordinance in my previous post. I dont see it in there at all but there is no sense in arguing about it anyway. I am curious where you see it at because I'd like to see the ordinance since I've never heard of super soakers being banned anywhere (although...

That does not make the super soaker illegal. Lets say the kid sprayed a fire extinguisher instead and caused an accident. Would that make fire extingishers illegal in the city? I could spit on you and it be a crime... but does not make it illegal for me to possess saliva in my mouth...

I'm not from Baltimore City. I know there is nothing in State Law about it, and I spent about 15 minutes looking over Baltimore City Code and could not locate anything. With that said, however, if you shoot somebody with one, it could probably be considered assault. That would be stretching...

Thats a good tip...I'll have to remember that since it probably works on other things than tile floors. BTW, I'm worried. You and I know a bit too much about dried blood ;)

Thats pretty funny. Popeye was on TV the other day (the one with Robin Williams). I did not know this, but when he is fighting the bad guys in the pub, the loudmouthed one is Dennis Franz...Yes my hero Andy Sipowicz ;) I never knew he was in that movie.

I thought of that but Im not sure how many people keep that on hand. Its one of those 'I just changed a car tire now I cant get this crap off my hands'. If you are a mechanic (even home mechanic), then you may have that stuff laying around. I keep a small bottle of shampoo in my police car for...

If you are doing any work on cars or equipment and get oil or grease on your hands, you probably know its hard to wash off. Instead of using soap, wash your hands with shampoo at first. Shampoo is designed to break down grease and oils (yuk). Afterward, wash with normal soap your hands will be...

I almost hate to post this Blood Stains Soaking the clothing in cold water for about 30 minutes will usually remove it. If the stain is still there, mix a bit of water with unseasoned meat tenderizer. The meat tenterizer breaks down the proteins in blood. Apply to the area. If its...

When cleaning your windows, use newspapers instead of paper towels. Newspaper does not leave all that lint and stuff behind. Its also a great way to recycle those old papers.

If you see corrosion around your car battery, making a bad connection (and could leave you stranded), pour a little bit of coke on the terminals. It will eat that corrosion right off, leaving the terminals shiny as new.

Steve, I will ask one time and one time only, and as requested by the mods previous, I will ask nicely. Please stop screwing up the thread to prevent it from getting deleted or edited. You have said your peace, now please play nice.....'Sir'

Who is writing traffic tickets? I just posted what I've been working on for the past month.
