You have my sincere thanks for a career of putting yourself in harm's way to protect us and our families here at home.

Appreciate the well wishes.

It will be retirement in name only.

Still paying child support (bet none of you guys know about that) but I digress.

The Taliban are apparently still very much in need of the medicine you guys administer; so I will be playing pharmacist and helping dispense the pills.

Godspeed pals.

Proud of you.

Now comes the hard part of hanging up the uniform, figuring out what to wear each day!

Find some good hunting spots up there and I'll see you next year!

Let's see - NO Hurricanes, but there are "occasional" blizzards. No gators or armadillos, but antelope should be a worthy substitute. NTM you'll be the only guy in the country getting BH ammo when you order it! What's not to like? Congratulations and good luck in the transition.

For the traitor appears not a traitor; he speaks in accents familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their arguments, he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation, he works secretly and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of the city, he infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A murderer is less to fear.

Yeah P ... the only thing we got piled that high ... and that white ... in Texas ... is cocaine.

Went up there a few weeks ago looking for houses with momma ... deer, turkey and elk walking through people's yards

No wonder the Lakota people call that area sacred.

But toss a CoonAss (Cajun) in the mix and you just got yourself one big problem.

Good thing I didn't have a rifle in the truck or I'd still be calling you guys to throw my bail.

I wasn't always a cop ...
