    Reno 911

    Couldn't sleep tonight (been sick & slept all day) so I turned on the ol' boob-tube and saw a rerun of "Reno 911".

    The episode in question featured Lt. Jim Dangle & crew in kilts (Dangle was in a mini kilt ).
    Had some of the old jokes about "skirts" etc.

    Due to the nature of the show I am hesitant to post the video itself here, but here is a link (it's from season 4):

    "you are the bridesmaids"

    Thanks for sharing that. I haven't seen Reno 911 in a long time.
    I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear

    I don't get to watch it much, my wife doesn't like it, and I just kinda quit watching tv. I might have to get that season on DVD though, but there are lots of dvds on my shelf i have yet to touch
    can't wait to watch the link

    Actually I get a big hoot out of it too.... having friends who lived in Reno I know some of the locations well.
    And having many friends in law enforcement / being involved in private-homeland security I can relate to some of the crazy situations

    Last night it was a case of art imitating life, or is that life imitating art?
    One of our guards had an experience that sounded like it might be lifted from the show, where an intoxicated reveler, dressed as a Treetop Apple Juice box was being pursued on foot by the local PD. The call that came in was:
    "I don't know how to report this, but I'm in pursuit of an apple juice box"

    Sometimes its scary how close that show hits to home!

    (I had more than a few myself near the college campus last night )

    I used to watch that show; it's funny.
    I tried to ask my inner curmudgeon before posting, but he sprayed me with the garden hose…
    Yes, I have squirrels in my brain…
