Cartoon?
I was watching this show on TV the other night called Heroes. It's about these unusual people who actually, unknown to them, are living out their lives as actual cartoon characters.
I liked the story..... thought it was pretty creative.
I stopped by the local newstand and picked up a comic book.
Holy Moly!! I wonder if Janet is one of these cartoon characters!!

Marcy Is on the Move Again
I got a call from one of my informers that Marcy Minkowski was in the area again. Marcy is the official mystery woman in the Beach community. She has only ever been seen on her Boat, the "Miss Marcy".
Nobody knows what she does and nobody has ever seen her off the boat or even on the boat when it was not in motion.
Very Strange!

Completed.... Next Step
For the last several months I have been taking classes in CSI photography and Code Enforcement which includes lots of reading on things like search and seizure, use of force; actual experience with arrests, body searches (not what you think), pain tactics and finally the use of guns which included 16 hours (2 days) of heavy duty practice with a final exam on the range.
I just came back with a sore thumb and trigger finger and an almost perfect score. I shot one way off target when a hot ammo ejected from the shooter to my left and went down my back.
The next few months willl be more CSI classes, and lots of other exams so I can properly handle a crime scene without screwing it up.
Time will tell. It is pretty interesting!

Last Day of Car Show
It seems that some of the not so very very rich, that live above the Crystal Cove shopping Center are annoyed by the large crowds of car enthusiasts that appear every Saturday morning starting at around 7:00 Am...... and so today was the last day of this weekly, extremely popular event.
I know this will be a bummer for the shopkeepers, who have been doing a stellar business on those mornings.
Maybe they can rename the shopping center to 'Just another shopping center like they have in Anaheim' .... Sorry.... no offense meant to Anaheim.

Jolly Roger Closed
I am starting to get that 'sinking' feeling. Quoting a fellow COP, Bruno Waldbaum, " The owner told everyone at 1:00 on friday.... "this is your last day". One lady had been there 25 years.... Jolly Roger, Jamba Juice, Newsstand, BigDogs, Baskin Robbins..... all gone in the last 2 months"
So much for the weekly newspaper meeting.
Even the prisoners in the local jail are effected. I guess they will now get their dinners from "Jack in the Box'.... without the secret sauce.
