      Home sleep study, I couldn't do it

      After ignoring my sleep apnea since I was 21, I finally got tired of being sleepy during the day, losing focus on everyday tasks and generally feeling tired all the time, and did a home sleep study in May. One night, simple equipment and minimal (if any) hassles. When the results came back and...

      Mass shooting in Ft. Wayne?

      It's bogus. I'm in my office at FWPD now, and there's nothing even remotely like this going on.

      What is it like to fire an AR-15? It’s horrifying, menacing and very very loud

      Perhaps this fellow's employer supplies estrogen supplements for its writers?

      Self driving cars??? A boom or a bust???

      I'm with you, churchmouse...it seems to be another instance of surrendering control of our lives to technology subject to control by someone else. No thanks!

      Obama to push "Smart Gun" again...

      Call me paranoid, but my greatest concern is this: Even if the technology is perfected someday, the government would probably have a back door into the devices, allowing the Feds to arbitrarily disable some or all of the guns so-equipped. No thanks, I'll pass and stick with something EMP-proof.

      Local shooting range under fire...

      It's interesting to note that some neighbors are complaining about noise, cracked drywall, etc, yet no one raised near as much Cain over the constant thunder of actual artillery rounds being fired at the Jefferson Proving Ground for decades. Heck, I grew up on the hilltop and can distinctly...

      No, You're Supposed to Shoot it with a REAL Gun

      I've had the same tour here in Fort Wayne, and zoo management was very explicit in their instructions...human lives come first, and any escaped animal that poses a threat is toast, per the zoo's directives.

      ISP Officer fired for Proselytizing during Traffic Stops

      With a pending lawsuit and a documented history of insubordination? Not likely...no department head wants the vicarious liability exposure on the grounds of "negligent hiring/retention." That fellow's a hot potato right now, and will be for a long time to come.

      Indiana becoming more veteran-friendly

      Thanks...it always seemed pretty dumb to me that we would slam the door on some exceptional people because they had chosen military careers right out of high school. I'm pretty happy with the outcome!

      Indiana becoming more veteran-friendly

      To make a long story (kinda) short, I've always hated the way Indiana's 1977 Police & Firefighter's Pension Fund excluded otherwise qualified military retirees from employment in a lot of departments around the state. For decades, the maximum age to get into the plan (and therefore get hired)...

      Water heater replacement needed

      Yeah, my bad...I read your last post more closely right after I hit the reply button. Ain't my first boo-boo & probably won't be my last!

      Water heater replacement needed

      This might be a perfect opportunity for you to go tankless...they save money over the long run, and they deliver hot water much more quickly than a traditional tanked unit. I think Home Depot carries a line made by Jacuzzi, and even the big ones are only as big as a suitcase. You can mount it...

      Former and Current Midnight Dog LEOs..... Sound about right?

      That's why I love thirds...my rank is merit-based & I'm generally in charge, while the political types are home in bed. I couldn't ask for better, and most of my people ROCK!

      Ruckus at the IHOP - ISP Involvement

      It was at Coldwater & Coliseum...FWPD, ACPD IPFW police & ISP all responded. Interestingly enough, the videographer was talking a lot of trash until all the back-up arrived, then he decided it was better to sound like the voice of reason. He sure was meek & mild-mannered when I saw him...
