(ARE ALL POILOTS THIS POMPOUS AND OVERBEARING? )

What's a "poilot"?

Hey - better to have McGreevy at weddings and fundraisers than trying to
make more crappy laws and taxes to give to Donald Trump!

Not a real problem in NJ. The State Police choppers are all tied up
either running EMS calls (a good thing) or ferrying Gov. McGreevy to
weddings or political fundraisers (value evaluation is left to the
reader!).

At that time the poicy was to issue a ticket to a driver with an
in-state license and no outstanding warrants but out-of-state drivers would,
at the officer's discretion, be taken into custody, cuffed for transport and
booked into jail, and would have to post bail equal to the maximum possible
fine to secure release. Failure to appear then would be considered a plea
of "no contest," a guilty verdict entered in the record, and bail would be
forfeited.

Tennessee, Georgia, and South Carolina handled this in a similar fashion
except that in at least South Carolina (and maybe the others) the arresting
officer was empowered to take the bail payment so the driver didn't have to
be transported to the jail.

Woman: Is there a problem, Officer?

Officer: Ma'am, you were speeding.

Woman: Oh, I see.

Officer: Can I see your license please?

Woman: I'd give it to you but I don't have one.

Officer: Don't have one?

Woman: Lost it 4 times for drunk driving.

Officer: I see...Can I see your vehicle registration papers please.

Woman: I can't do that.

Officer: Why not?

Woman: I stole this car.

Officer: Stole it?

Woman: Yes, and I killed and hacked up the owner.

Officer: You what?

Woman: His body parts are in plastic bags in the trunk if you want to see.

The Officer looks at the woman, slowly backs away to his car, and calls for
back up. Within minutes 5 police cars circle the car. A senior officer
slowly approaches the car, clasping his half drawn gun.

Officer 2: Ma'am, could you step out of your vehicle please! The woman
steps out of her vehicle.

Woman: Is there a problem sir?

Officer 2: One of my officers told me that you have stolen this car and
murdered the owner.

Woman: Murdered the owner?

Officer 2: Yes, could you please open the trunk of your car, please.

The woman opens the trunk, revealing nothing but an empty trunk.

Officer 2: Is this your car, ma'am?

Woman: Yes, here are the registration papers.

The first officer is stunned.

Officer 2: One of my officers claims that you do not have a driving license.

The woman digs into her handbag and pulls out a clutch purse and hands it
to the officer. The officer snaps opens the clutch purse and examines the
license. He looks quite puzzled.

Officer 2: Thank you ma'am, one of my officers told me you didn't have a
license, that you stole this car, and that you murdered and hacked up
theowner.

Woman: 'Betcha the lying Jerk told you I was speeding too."

Nope, even the DC gulag waivers the police. The PG County Mouties NOTAR helicopter
was buzzing around CGS the other day.

College Park Airport is campaigning to have the PG county government move their
operations to the airport. The police need the space and College Park is a ghost airport
since very few individuals are vetted to fly into it. It would be one way to save the
oldest, continually operating airport from extinction.
