Seems like he was born about a year ago...
Mrs. Captain and I managed to fund 5 years so he gets to start life with a clean slate.

He goes to work at the Sheriffs Office in a couple of weeks.
Wow time goes by fast, Kribbs is getting old. 4766

BTW ... Cheryl's 4'10", you're 5'2" and I was 6'2" by time I reached Jr. H/S. (How tall is Hammerhead?) Remember one thing ... I've left more than ONE set of tire tracks in your driveway ... just sayin'. :biggrin

First time we met we had to pick him up at preschool, Kay kept him busy in the truck while you showed me the farm.
That was like last year.
Best of luck to the hammerhead, wish him our best, he'll do good.

JB I remember Kay and Hammerhead playing basketball for a long time while you and I talked guns and hunting.
That was the day the press was after me because I had worked on getting a friend a pardon from the governor. They got my name off the petition and was trying to run me down for an interview. It was good to have a hiding place....

The poor kid has to put in 30 days of community service for havin' such a fugly old man. They gave him a pass until school was out, now he has to do the time. ;)

Deputy he will start working as a jailer and within his fist year he will attend the academy and get his final certification as a road patrol officer.
He wants to work in narcotics, but I hope he changes his mind on that. I did it for several years and it is dangerous. I knew nothing was going to happen to me but the thoughts of my son being in some of the situations I was in worries me somewhat.

Wow cappy! times does fly by. I should be doing he same come next year. Congratulations to Cheryl, kiddo and you. MAN, did you marry lucky or what, i thought that was Hammerhead girlfriend in the picture!!!

That's ok Nandy ... the first time I met her, I thought she was his daughter Meredith. A pretty lady ... but obviously blind as a bat! If she ever visits an optometrist, ol' Cappy is toast! ;)

My same thoughts when I met her about 16 years ago.... That goes to tell you, no matter how ugly you are, all it matters is that you treat them right... but YOU know that Kribbo! lol!

A great big congratulations to the Hammerhead and your entire family. That "Niner Nation" tag needs to be enshrined in a place of honor. I am sure his LEO career will follow in the path of his old man.

Have any of you goobers tried messing with one of these new fangled ROKU TV devices yet?

Not that its kept me from chatting with you guys, but it certainly has held my interest during the last couple of weeks---between naps and fancy pain killers. Still trying to figure out the ins and outs of this thing. Y'all feel free to call or write anytime with tips or other general nonsense and I'll chat or write when I can.

I'm still working on my list---between naps and fancy pain killers that is.

If I had a kid ... I'd have to ask him what a "ROKU THINGY" is! ;)

It's great to see you posting Bill! :thumbsup

Good to see you here Bill but what the hell is a "ROKU?????"

Niner, are you trying to stream TV to your computer or your Computer to your TV? Which of the ROKU's did you get? I've been thinking about picking up he stick thingy.

I started in the jail too. You can learn a lot in there while still being in a semi controlled environment. If he wants to work dope, it's better he does it while he's younger and doesn't have a wife and kids.

How's Cheryl with his choice of careers? My Dad was an officer too, and I can still remember my Mom not being too happy with me when I started. She told me, "I had too worry about your Dad for over 20 years, and I thought I was done with that, now I have to start all over again with you."
