Within the Trenches – How Aware Are You?

Hello folks, I hope you're having a good Sunday so far. I had an interesting conversation with my co-workers that I would like to share. I want to see what you think and test how aware you are. First off, the conversation started with the people we talk to and the descriptions they give for suspects, vehicles, etc. The descriptions are good but they are almost always different. Now, don't get me wrong here. I am in no way complaining about this because it's always good when someone calls and gives Read more [...]

Happy Jason Voorhees Day!

Good morning and happy Jason Voorhees Day! It's Friday the 13th and it's a day that is considered to be bad luck among the superstitious. To go along with many historical facts that point to this day of bad luck we have the ever popular Jason Voorhees. If you don't know who this fictional character is then you need to rent the movie...wait, rent? Are there still rental stores around? I think everything is either online or compacted into a Redbox or Blockbuster Express. Either way though you can Read more [...]

What’s playing this Holiday weekend?

Happy Friday folks! We're just one day away from the Christmas weekend and I am stoked like you wouldn't believe! This is going to be the first time in a very long time that I have spent both Christmas Eve and Day with my family since working in dispatch. This year I won't have to worry about opening presents at 5:30 in the morning, eating breakfast with the family, and then crashing out in order to go back to work at 5pm. No sir, not me, not this time. I can now relax and sleep in if I want but Read more [...]
