To the officer that snarfed coffee all over his shirt I will not apologize. You had it coming. I am an old fart and when I pointed out to a smart ass teenager that police officers treat senior citizens with respect because they know a life sentence isn't a very good deterrent. You should have seen that one coming. Sucks to be you.

I guess that it's that time of year again and I am thinking of a guy I knew as 'Ossifer Gordy'. EOW 15 January 1983.

He was a shaggy faced bearded Kodiak cop with compassion, common sense and a sense of humor. Not enough of that going around these days.

He is one of the people I remember from my delightfully mis spent youth.

Just thinkin' about you. Wish I could call you and say hello. I just spoke with ******* the other day
