How many donuts did you have today?

At the donut shop do they call you Bob, or do they have a cool nickname for you like Shorty, Mini Cop, or Girly Man(After seeing you in that Miata)? lol

Have you got Lou a new Laptop yet? :)

Yikes. I somehow never made it into this thread until today. Your stories remind me a bit too much of the stories my cop uncle tells. :o There's a reason some of us wouldn't make it long in your field. :updown: My hat is off to you, Mr BOB. :) (Not that it wasn't before.)

No questions from me tonight, just a deep appreciation for men like you. Thanks for what you do on a daily basis! :)

When are you coming to Wisconsin? Or would you rather meet half way? LOL... (I can actually do that now that I got the Jetta, and it is getting a average of just under 30 mpg!)

Well, the one sure way to get me to wisconsin is to have a wedding.  :laughhard: Barring that- um, I don't know? We may have to explore the "halfway" idea, since the Miata also gets around 30 ish mpg-  but these gas prices have got to go down! :o

What have you done with your wife?  Should we call out the FBI?

I'll never tell. :lol:
All kidding aside, this is her M.O. for computer things. She'll sign up, post a bit, then leave it dormant for months. Claims she doesn't have time for it. She'll be back when you least expect it, probably to pound on me about something or the other. We're considering HughesNet satillate internet to replace our slow dial up. If we find the money in the budget for that, you'll probably see her more, because she'll wind up with a netbook to surf with.
I think she would prefer a piano for the house to the netbook and internet, though- it's also being considered.

I had Wild Blue for a while (comperable to HughesNet), it's much better than dial up.

Skip the piano and get an 88 key keyboard.  Trust me.  With my computer and 88 keys I can play a better piano than the one at church.  Mmmmmm. 

Of course you can't play it when the power is out...  That's the only thing a real piano has over mine. 

Unless Wild Blue has gone down in price lately you might be happier getting an AT&T USB clip like the one I have.  When I last checked they cost about the same per month, and the AT&T clip can go with you wherever you go.

I am intrigued by the whole recording side of things with the digital pianos and a computer... maybe I should go to Psalms thread for this... lol

Technically it's not a digital piano, it's a really big pack of piano samples.  Each key is recorded at about 16 different levels (loudnesses, strength of key strike) so when you play soft it doesn't just sound like a loud hit with the volume turned down. 

Short version:  Technically it's not a digital piano, it's a recording of a very good acoustic piano, note by note and all different dynamics for each note.

We are actually planning to use a CP-300 to record my Pastors songs... I have bought numerous programs... and finally settled on one, but am definitely an amateur when it comes to recording software, and need to find a good teaching program or school on running a sound system as well... we have Piano, Accoustic Guitar (a six and 12 string) and a bass to record, and possibly drums, but I know the program we are using can digitally add drums... Using an Mbox 2 and ProTools LE.

Eric- Thanks for the kind words, but hold the phone on the list of folks.  :laughhard: I was fortunate enough and blessed enough a year ago to be hired by the state Capitol Police, and am basically a glorified security guard now. :lol: I have statewide authority, but would not dream of using it unless forced to- too much paperwork.  :biglaugh: I've not made a traffic stop or wrote a "hard copy" (ticket) in well over a year, so I probably wouldn't be much good for your little list. :biglaugh:

I'm somewhat of a "people person", a talker- I know you'd never have guessed that- so I spend alot of the time talking to senators, representatives, and other people who are much more important to me. Many of them like to stop and chat, and I take advantage to tell them what I think about whatever issue that is important to me at the time. :biglaugh:

We only spend two hours on each post at a time- for instance, 2 hours on the west door, two hours riding around in a car taking calls,2 hours working the east door, then two hours walking around the building. That is a somewhat typical day, and  it goes by faster than you would think. :thumbsup2:

Kimber Ultra carry 1911, with rosewood stocks and a built in laser. I nearly bought one last year, but was afraid of the consequences when the better half discovered the purchase.
Realy, though, any custom built small frame 1911 in .45 caliber would work.  And I'd like to have the Judge. and a Colt Commander Officer's model 1911.
Don't get me started on the long gun side.... AR15, a couple of carbines, a Browning Automatic Rifle in .50 cal, an antique drum fed Tommy gun, and the absolutly awesome drum fed automatic shotgun, I believe it's an A11- check Youtube for it.
