I just found out a good friend of mine died today in an ATV accident. I say he was a good friend but in reality I haven't talked to or seen him for many years now. I tried to stay in touch, and I sent him an E-mail occasionally, and I even recently found him on Facebook. I remember so many crazy things we did as kids. It's sad to see someone go that you know, It's even sadder to know that he has a wife, and 3 young children. My prayers go out to Ben's family, and especially to his children. I don't know how to explain it, but I feel numb about the whole thing. I regret not staying in touch more, and I feel bad for his family.
Ben you will certainly be missed. I hope to see you on the other side my friend.

I'm not even going to comment on this story, except to say that it has kept me busy for a while now.

A coworker had this on his facebook account. I thought it was hilarious, so I stole it and put it on here.

It was good to wrap this one up in such a short time. I thought for sure it was going to take us a long time to find the suspects and get things taken care of. The damage done inside the building was severe.

MENAN - Jefferson High School in Menan was put on lockdown Wednesday
after a man with a gun was spotted walking around campus.
The man walked across the parking lot and basketball court with his dog.
School officials called the Sheriff's Office and put the school on lockdown.
When deputies arrived, the suspect was ordered to drop the gun, which he did.
Turns out the man was duck hunting and walked across the school grounds to get to his destination.
The suspect, who didn't realize school was in session, was released.
This was a call that I didn't go to, but I was working that day. I all turned out well, and some older gentlemen probably got the start of his life, when the deputies drew down on him.

It's been a long time since I posted anything on my blog here. I just finished up two new K9 video's and wanted to share them with you all. The K9 Jail didn't turn out so well, just a bad view, but the dogs were willing and we got fresh meat in the bite suite.
The Snow Dogs video is pretty fun. We got a new handler to jump in the suite. He doesn't have a K9 yet but he will be getting one soon. This was just a demonstration, of what he is in store for. I think even though you took a few spills he really liked it anyway.

Well On the 14th of this month my wife and I had our 13th Anniversary. I
feel bad because for the first time I actually forgot. Luckily she was not
upset with me, and things worked out very well. She got me a gift, and I took
her out to dinner that night. We didn't do anything spectacular, but we did
have a good time together. My wife has a blog as well, and she left
blogged about me. I was truly touched by what she wrote, and feel very lucky to
have such a wonderful woman in my life.
I wish I could write something as wonderful as what you have written me,
but as you know I’m not really that eloquent, and have a very difficult time
saying what I feel. I do want to post your comments on here, and I want to let
you know that I love you very much. I don't want you to ever think otherwise. You
and Kenneth truly are my life. Every day when it comes time to go home from
work, I am rushing to get home, just to see you guys. I usually walk in and
don't say anything, but I really am happy to see you. ... Anyway I have
spent the last 30 min just writing this, and as you can see it's not much. I would like to say more, but think I would only mess it up by continuing to type.
Well, it is now official - we have been married for
13 years! And for the first time since we have been married, Mike
actually forgot. This morning before he left I got up and gave him his
gift - I got him an iPod docking station/alarm clock. But he made it up
to me by taking me out to dinner tonight. Kenneth went with us and the
food was really good - we all had a good time.
So in honor of our 13 years together, I thought I would list 13 things that I love about Mike. (Not in any particular order)
____________________________________________________________________
1.
He is very laid back. Most people don't know him very well because he
is pretty quite and doesn't say a whole lot. But that is typical for
him - he is just real easy going.
2.
Mike is the best dad I could have ever asked for my child. He spends a
lot of time with Kenneth. They like to just hang out downstairs in the
man cave, they mow lawns together - which is teaching Kenneth a great
work ethic, and they just goof off together. Last week Mike and I were
both sick with food poisoning, and Kenneth had his last football game
of the season. I told Kenneth that since we were both so sick he would
have to miss his game. Mike felt bad about this and so he had Kenneth
get ready and drove him to his game in Firth. Mike waited in the car -
sick as can be - for about 2 hours and then drove home - what a good
dad!!!
3. Mike is patient - he puts up with me and my craziness - need I say anymore?
4.
Mike is a hard worker. He has one of those jobs that requires a lot of
flexibility and sacrifice, but he does it day after day because he
loves it. He gave up his education and working as an engineer because
he knew that he wanted to be a cop. It isn't always a glamorous or high
paying job, but I think that he gets a lot of satisfaction out of being
able to help people.
5.
He embraces his inner computer nerd. He has fully accepted that he is a
computer nerd and is often found fixing a computer around the house or
helping out any one of our numerous friends/family that need help with
technology crap.
6.
Mike is a good friend/brother. Mike would give you the shirt off his
back if you needed it. He often gets calls that someone needs help with
a variety of things and he always is willing to sacrifice his time and
energy to lend a helping hand.
7.
He protects our family. Not that we live in a high crime area or
anything, but I always feel safer when he is around. He is always
available to take care of whatever we need.
8.
He still thinks of himself as a kid. He doesn't ever really want to
grow up. He enjoys doing so many activities and "fun stuff" that
sometimes I think I have 2 kids. You can often hear me saying - "no
horseplay in the house - somebody's going to get hurt" For example, a
few weeks ago Mike and Kenneth were goofing around and Mike
accidentally slammed Kenneth's head into a corner of the wall in the
hall. Now we have a big ole dent on the corner of the wall that I don't
think can be fixed........like I said, sometimes I think I have 2 kids.
(don't worry - Kenneth's head is just fine)
9.
Mike takes care of the "manly" things around the house. He feels that
it is his responsibility to take care of things like mowing the yard
and fixing things.
10.
Mike is a fantastic artist. He really has a talent. He likes to draw
things - he still has a picture he drew in high school - it is called
vision master. I think he use to have a poster of it in his room ....
or something like that. It is really cool.
11.
Mike has a terrific sense of humor. Most people don't get to see this
part of him because he is so shy. But once you get to know him, he is
pretty hysterical. A great example (he won't like me sharing) was last
night we were saying goodnight to Kenneth and Mike was wearing a
halloween shirt that glows in the dark. It is a black shirt with a
skeleton outline on it. Well, he charged it up with light so that it
would glow really well and then we turned the lights of - he started
dancing around and Kenneth and I were laughing so hard we coulnd't
catch our breath....I know you had to be there to get the whole
effect....
12.
Mike has stuck with me through good and bad. And believe me - there
have been both. I have never doubted his love for me. Some days we
don't necessarily like each other very much, but we still love each
other no matter what.
13.
Mike is my eternal companion. Thirteen years ago today we knelt across
an alter in the Idaho Falls temple and he agreed to be sealed to me for
time and for all eternity...how lucky am I??????
I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!

A friend of mine owns this car you see above. He tells me it's pushing 500 hp. Very impressive. He races it at some of the local drag strips.

I
was told this little girls father was a Police Officer who died during
the Twin tower tragedy. Whether that is true or not, this song really
gets to me, and brings home the many lives that were changed on this
day several years ago. I do not believe we should forget the event, or
the lives that were lost. I don't care what your political views are,
or if you think 9/11 was some conspiracy. I just feel sad, and angered
that so many people died. It is unfortunate that these kinds of things
happen in the world today.
I encourage you to watch this video, especially the end. It really tugs at your heart strings.

The last taser and O.C. class was on the 16th. I finally got this video done. There were not as many people in this class, so I combined the taser and OC together into one video. It's hard to hear everyone, but I think it came out pretty well. Hope you enjoy it.

All right here is the Pepper Spray portion of the class. After being
sprayed with Pepper spray they all had to fight me, in the Red man
suit. It was pretty fun.
