Hmmmm......this site sure has changed since I first registered. I don't visit much anymore at all just due to my life and interests being a lot different than they were. It seems strange when "the old guys" now have join dates of 2007 and later.....I remember when the old guys had join dates of 19XX. Anyway, like I said a lot has changed. Here are some of the things that have changed since I joined.
*Moved 3 times *Lived in 4 different places *2 different jobs *Serious career change: from coporate type to law enforcement *2 different cats *2 different girlfriends and 1 wife (lol) come and gone *2 different trucks *2 tattoos *Purchased A LOT of guns *Changed direction in what type of guns I collect *Stopped smoking *My dad diaganosed with cancer and beat it 4 times (best thing ever!!!) *3 friends have passed away *I got Tasered (oooooouch!!!!!) *1 serious automobile accident *Total different set of friends since I became LEO That's just off the top of my head. So what's changed in your life since you registered here? -REAPER2502 |

It sounds to me as if you have just about everything a man could ask for. |

I think 10 years ago I would have never imagined myself in law enforcement. Even now, it has its days. However, I think for the most part, all the things that have changed have been positive for the most part. At least, that's what I tell myself.
Still, there are a ton of things I would go back and change. Things I would tell people that I never did, and as a result, those folks are gone from my life never to be seen or heard from again. I also figured ten years ago, that in ten years I'd have it all figured out. That's probably the funniest thing of all. -REAPER2502 |
