I'm there too JJ--I keep thinking about the great things we're doing and hating the idea of it changing (which it will) but in the long run it is good to let the turn over occur...it keeps the organization whole so I'll just go along and hopefully mentor....
CC-very scarey stuff on shorty. I have to say--having worked counterintelligence for years...at the first sign of a seige anywhere in the US of a school (one of the targets of our terrorist friends-think the Russian elementary school taken by the terrorists a few years ago) I'm going and getting the boys out of school. If they are in lock down I'm getting some of my best good old boy friends and we're circling the wagons to keep the back guys out. Sounds silly but I'd rather be there doing something than sitting here doing nothing. Wouldn't help in your case since it was a lone shooter kind of guy and you did the best thing you could....
If folks don't know what their schools program is for this stuff--they need to get informed...I've seen ours and also been privey to some of their drills. It is scarey stuff but I'd rather be informed and aware.
For those of you with so much experience......why should I feel guilty about not wanting to be an officer???? Enjoy getting in there doing the work......but ready for break....worry about somebody coming in, not having the kids best interest at heart....etc.....
Is it like I imagine??? When it's over...R E L I E F or is it the other way...REGRET????
My Dad and Step-Mom live in Wisconsin. They are seriously depressed about this.
Woo Hoooo I ended the day with an algebra exam and now we are on Spring Break. Yippee!!!! I know I'm in college now but I think I'll pass on the traditional "Spring Break" rituals. Maybe I'll go a little crazy and have pizza and beer tonight...... I can see the video now ~ 40's Go Wild ~ as long as they don't catch me in my revealing holey sweatshirt and baggy jamma pants I'll be OK.

So I have to ask ... are we all as depressed about Farve retiring as the whole state of WI? Spoke with some relatives and between the weather and this they may go over the edge in that state.

As long as Bill isnt standing outside the ring wearing a WWE Diva outfit the cagematch would be cool in my book. Maybe Pelosi and theGovernator could be the guest referees for the match.
Obama can have the Speechify ('cuz he's a good orator) as his signature move, Hillary can have Stupify as her move ('cuz I am sorry but every picture has her with this stupid look on her face, does she have a regular friendly smile or look?) and McCain can have the Manchurian Waterboard as his signature move....
Cagematch outside on the beach in SoCal with its sponsors Hooters and Chippendales (we are in Hollywood ya know) and music performed by Brad Paisley (eg Online) and Who Knew by Pink (gotta get the under 25 crowd involved),
