I was in WV a while back head...They can be nice... I was in WV a while back heading home after a visit with the P's going a tad over 70, in what I thought was a 70mph zone... After a little chit chat, he peered into the mini-van chockfull o' spawn (without my better half) and said "You've got a car full, don't cha?!" I emphatically replied with a cherubic smile on my face, "Why... yes I do!" Penalty mercifully averted.<BR/>Got stopped very recently in my cute little mid-life crisis Miata convertible....not speeding, and really close to home... didn't even see the guy. Lights flash on as I'm 1/10 of a mile to the house.... So I pulled into my own driveway and waited that same eternity you did, and when he finally got me checked out, he pronounced my name wrong and asked "Did you know your front headlight was out?" "I didn't," I exclaimed with a shocked sweet gasp... I promised Jason I would get it fixed and the next day better half installed 2 new bulbs.... They CAN be nice.... Happy Holiday!! <BR/><BR/>On another note....Thanks for your welcome party Neddie!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10261187.post-29068564650783931362008-12-21T11:46:00.000-05:002008-12-21T11:46:00.000-05:00Yes, the traffic cops are as thick as the deer in ...Yes, the traffic cops are as thick as the deer in these parts. Twixt here and Clark's Gap maybe thicker. It's easy pickins for them in Waterford. The limit in Wford is 20 mph, even on High St. They got me doin 13 over a while back, so I'm more aware now. In good weather they park their bikes on a side street and stand on the side of the main drag to gun oncoming cars. There's no patrol car, just a guy on the side of the road who waves you over when you get close enough to realize who he is. I'll say this for the west LoCo cops though - they're very courteous when they serve you.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
