You, sir, are hilarious! Thanks for telling me about your blog at the breakfast potluck. I'm really enjoying it. “In my opinion, if rocking out to Journey is wrong, then I don’t want to be right.” You, sir, are hilarious! Thanks for telling me about your blog at the breakfast potluck.

But it turns out that a Friday night police ridealong in East Austin really isn't so dangerous after all. In fact, watching 24 consecutive episodes of 24 or taking care of a baby for 24 hours are far riskier activities. Needless to say, I was relieved when David arrived home @4:45 in the morning, 100% free of bruises, cuts and bullet wounds. Thanks for looking out for him, Officer A!
