HaHa its not what you might think, I'm trying to become a Police officer or a Sheriff and one of the counties I sent an application off to in July called me today. Even though at the time when I sent my app they didnt have any openings they saved it and called me today and left a message saying that they just had an opening and if i was interested to call them back. (same receptionist i talked to when I sent my app, when she left a message she was really peppy) What makes this even better is the fact that If I'm hired, I enter the Cadet Program (its where they pay for the sheriff academy, and pay me while im taking it). The only bad part is its across state lines in Nevada but when the pass is open its only a 3hr drive home. On the bright side, My best friend is a Sheriff in the same department. Hopefully things will work out!! I'm very excited to have the opportunity! -PL USFLAG Replies (25) trunkisloud on 11/18/2005 13:01:28 are you gonna enforce the noise ordinance where applicable? P0werLifter on 11/18/2005 13:34:51 Actually, within reason yes. Reason being is there is a difference between enjoying your music, and just being outright inconsiderate. Inconsiderate being blasting your system late nights in residential areas, or at stop lights. In those situations, If i get the job then yes, they will be enforced but if your just driving down the road with it blaring, i dont see the need. Its the people who lack the reserve and decide to blare their ghetto systems at the innappropriet times that I'll nail if I actually get the job. Which I think is fair. Feel free to discuss -PL swez on 11/18/2005 16:16:50 Seems like a fair proposition since you already own a pretty hard core SPL machine too. I hope you get this position as we have talked before on same. It seems like you have the "right stuff" already for this kind of work. A level head, read people well and know when something bad is about to break loose. Just remember this is a high risk profession and some guys play for keeps. (especially if they have a Rap sheet that will put them away for a long time) Those are some very dangerous hombres. Not to mention the "Crack-heads" you may encounter too. Best of luck getting into the academy. Imagine that... "Sgt. Bass Head" in a few short years.... that picture just cracks me up. (in a good way) Swez SMILE trunkisloud on 11/18/2005 16:19:38 yo ......you arent near conroe tx huh?.... ...not that i blare at night or anything like that....of course i always use caution around johnny law.. MrBrownstone on 11/18/2005 17:34:54 Where are you at? Arizona? where does 'the pass' need to be open? Are you at 11,000 feet or something swez on 11/18/2005 20:30:11 How'd he get back in here? I thought Katie barred that door!!! Hummm, "Hang on to your lug nutz, it's time for an overhaul". Ara-zoonie? 11,000 feet?? "The pass" ??? As usual, he's off on vacation. Been out too long in the desert and would not even pass a pee test. Learning how to make pie-ot-ee from the local tribesmen? Send me some and I'll have a test on it. Swez PS Try reading a good book OK? How 'bout "Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus" Dr. John Gray Good stuff there Maynard. P0werLifter on 11/18/2005 22:10:18 Actually I'm located in Central California but the County that I sent my app to is in Mineral County in Nevada. Its high elevation. The fastest route there is up through Yosemite National park through one of the passes and during the winter its closed haha. So instead of taking 3hrs to get there, it takes 6. Goodtimes MrBrownstone on 11/20/2005 13:44:40 See Swez! Someone know's what he's talking about. You, on the other hand, when you see a post about 'the sheriff' always assume the position. Sorry PL for invading your post. Just that normally when Swez & I are talking about the sheriff, we usually hear, "Will the Defendant please rise" and get all emotional and stuff. Funny fact, Nevada is the state with the most peaks above 11,000 feet. Considering the number of high peaks in Silicon Valley, CA, you'd think this state had more!! I hear that the mari Jicana is grown in Yosemite without federal interference...why not fight the drug war while you're there? There was a news article in Cali papers last week on how the federal parks have jurisdicition, but no manpower to stop the illegal ganja farms that are flowering the federal parks in Cali. Swez, I think you may have a job here. Powerlifter can't even arres you as he's NSP or Nazi State Police. Whatya say? A new name for Swez's company Amerijuana!! Just a little something for his 'glaucoma' if you know what I mean... swez on 11/20/2005 19:54:22 Not so much for the "glaucoma". There is no need yet. It's more the chronic back pain I often get these days. Not sure though, the last time I tried whacky t-baccy was a while back. Come to think of it, it did seem to help the back pain issues a lot, but did very little for the cognative side of the brain. Can't do numbers and calcs very well on it. However, most other mechanical and dexterity issues seemed to be fine in very moderate doses. A lot less impairment than most high end pain killers offer as a side affect. A side note, one of the local commumities here, did pass a "reefer referendum" that allows one to purchase and have limited quantities on hand. Unfortunately, it can overidden by County and State law enforcement. I guess, the trick is to get nabbed by the locals huh? Swez PS Hey B, am glad others understand your lingo though. We have known each other via the net/phone for what??? 6 years now? I have yet to phathom some of your idiosycratic ways. But, that doesn't seem to matter between friends. PSS Since you live in Mexicali now, you might appreciate some very interesting (albiet... disturbing) readings. I found this on the web the other day and cannot stop reading some of the predictions. http://www.billymeier.com/Contacts/Contact251.html MrBrownstone on 11/21/2005 22:11:34 little too much text reading to come to a point. What was it supposed to be about? where does it start a discussion? ttocs on 11/21/2005 23:24:12 it can have some medicinal uses, my Dr's have not told me to stop if it is helping with the digestive issues I have been suffering. swez on 11/22/2005 10:36:51 That link is a textual conversation between Billy Meier and several humanoid beings from a distant galaxy. If nothing else, it has some very interesting Sci-Fi content and perhaps a harbinger of future events that may come as a result of our present war with Iraq. Basically, if we (America) don't curb this present war and get out other countries business, expect WW III and North America to be laid waste by biological and nuks. If nothing else, it is a facinating read. It starts as a conversation on current events, a long monologue summary and final coversational notes at the end. The coolest part on this topic, is that we will someday learn how to travel into deep space at speeds well in excess of light. (186,000 Mps) The benchmark to how much of this is actually true, will hinge on our finding (or not) old life forms on Mars. (Our forerunners) In short, an interesting read on many topics and technologies that have yet to be discovered and how they are used for peace or war. New energy sources, medical breakthroughs and how depraved, human beings actually are. Swez MrBrownstone on 11/23/2005 03:46:06 the reason I asked, Swez, is that it appeared to be a conversation with no beginning or end, and since it didn't have a starting point, I lost interest. Guess I needed to take part in the genesis of the discussion. Concerning traveling @ speed of light or faster, I have a theory and a model for the travel, but don't have the power source under control. WHen I do, I'll fly over to your house in 0.0009 seconds swez on 11/23/2005 12:42:50 Sorry PL, if we have hijacked your post. (it wasn't intended) If you wish, I will delete these. However, if interested, read on. Mr. B: " the reason I asked, Swez, is that it appeared to be a conversation with no beginning or end, and since it didn't have a starting point, I lost interest." Had the same initial impressions as I started reading the piece, but pressed on anyway. The first page or so, is a dialog. Then, it switches to a monolog for many pages to follow. (This seems to be a summary of all the topics discussed over an earlier time period) In this part of the writings, (monologue) many interesting events and details are covered without a well defined time line or even sequential specifics. However, the mentions of Bush II, (George W.) the war in Iraq and other events we now see in daily events, were written about (foretold) in 1995. Has the piece been modified since then? I cannot know for certain. However, Billy states he did write the main body (23 pages of recorded history and future events), intentionally out of sequence. But he does repeat certain themes over the coarse of the document in order to reinforce his assurtions. I find this comment interesting: "Regarding overpopulation, unfortunately, no changes for the better will take place; indeed, overpopulation will escalate. On a broader scale, expect a coup involving the USA and its president, which will stun the entire world. Additionally, lengthy deliberations will increasingly take place regarding Islamic fundamentalism, which will mesmerize the entire globe. Uprisings, revolutions, wars and other diverse forms of unrest will escalate tremendously, with Islamic fundamentalism playing a very sad part in the scenario. " Makes me wonder if this was in reference to Bill Clinton, (Impeachment in 1999) or a future event we have yet to witness? Another quote about space flights to Mars and the possible erruptions of WW III are interesting to note. I find the part about "4 heads of state, dying within a 7 day period particularly interesting as this gives us some clues to the time line for the start of WW III. Quote: "first steps will be taken for a flight to Mars, but will not be blessed with good fortune. However, the next flight, which ensues very soon, will have better luck although it will encounter certain difficulties due to unexpected technical problems. All of this will transpire shortly after the worldwide misery of unemployment and its related ills are corrected and surmounted. A new hording of weapon stockpiles will follow at a time when the worldwide production of weaponry is accelerated once again. This will signal the first threat of a looming third world war, as foretold by a prophecy, unless terrestrial Man strives to avert this danger through reasoning and appropriate thoughts and actions. Should Man fail to act against the fulfillment of this prophecy, a new and extremely destructive weapon will be built that will produce disastrous consequences in the next world war. One important factor in this scenario is the criminal neglect to monitor the Earth from space. New weapons will once again create quite a stir, and so will the death of 4 heads of state who will die within 7 days from each other. These then are the last danger signs, which foretell that within merely 2 years of these events the long-feared world war will indeed erupt, unless terrestrials finally gain mastery over their reasoning to stop all these ills. " (keep in mind, this was penned in January 1995) Anyway, even if this information is nonsense and pure conjecture, there seems to be enough information in the piece, to support its premise that humans are power hungry, seeking to control the masses and willing to stop at nothing to expand their voracity. Hey, I did not write this piece, nor do I report it to be absolute fact. However, it is a good read in one aspect. It does show rapis human progress in technology, knowledge in many new areas. The part that is yet unknown, is how these new findings will be used (or abused), for the sake of power and benefit/detriment of mankind as a species. I will leave you with a timeless quote: " Power corrupts, while absolute power corrupts absolutely!" We have a pretty solid history of event to back that one up. 1. Rise and destruction of Atlantis (yet to be confirmed) 2. Expansionism for wealth (Vikings, Spainish, British, French, Roman, American colonies) 3. US colonies that exploited native American 4. Slavery 5. WWI, WWII, Korean and Vietnamese wars (Germany, Japan, China, Russia, US and her allies) 6. The Cold war era (Russia, USA and Cuba) 7. The Iraqi wars (wars for oil and domination of the Middl East) 8. One world governance system (pending via Illuminati and other entities) AKA: "The New World Order" In short, there seems to be a "ring of truth" to many Conspiracy Theories we all hear about. If one could just connect the dots and then project them out a few decades, it would indeed be interesting. Swez PS Even if all this is pure fantasy, (fallacy) it makes for a good Sci-Fi book or movie huh? ryan2 on 11/26/2005 21:58:19 Hey good luck man. I'll be in your boots pretty soon. One semester left of school before I graduate. And remember if you havent yet start running and working out to get in decent shape for the physical tests when getting hired. P0werLifter on 11/26/2005 22:09:54 Swez and Brownstone HiJacked my thread >_< Yah thanks Ryan, ive been running 2-3miles every day and so far i can pull 2miles in under 14mins which is pretty good for me not running in over a year haha. Been doing pushups and situps like mad not mensioning the gym time haha. Hopefully everything will go smooth. PS ..Swez and Brown,,,,,,,,,,,keep discussing the "sci-fi" stuff if u want lol GRIN MrBrownstone on 11/27/2005 12:52:30 PL I just hope that once you become 'da man' you'll remember the hardship that Swez has gone through. If it weren't for the wacky Tobaccy, he couldn't stomach eating food. Please don't put him in jail. He's the only friend i got left on the outside :-) swez on 11/27/2005 15:20:00 True... that is a very true statement. The good news is, Mr. B. is incarcerated in So. Cal. If PL gets the job, maybe he will visit you and bring a writ from Govenor Swartzenstuff, with a full pardon. Just make sure you don't make enmies on the inside as you deal out the cards. Be charitable and pass on a few good hands, so that others don't feel slighted. Swez PS I will be sending you a cake for Christmas. It will have all the trimmings in it too. A pack of C-4, some ceramic hand tools, a graphite pistol and directions to a stashed 1966 Impala Low-rider. Study the maps carefully dude... then flush em down the head. Look inside the air cleaner for a few well rolled fatties. That should suffice, til you get out of Dodge. Go and blend in with the other Low-riders and keep your head down. PSS The keys will be hidden under the dash along with an envelope with $2,000 cash. There will be a gym bag in the trunk with a few changes of clothing, snacks and assorted disguises. Hopefully, that will get you started on a good note. Yes, this ride has a nice sound system in it too. Your access code is: "Brownshorts is a moron". It's a voice activated, speech recognition system and will only respond to your voice. Hope we've covered all the basses. Good luck! ;-) MrBrownstone on 11/27/2005 16:51:30 You forgot to include Anna Kournicova swez on 11/27/2005 20:48:42 Sorry, no babes on this job. You're on your own there pal.
