Going through all of my old stuff, I found the business card of the Police Officer who came to my former home and disarmed my former spouse, when he attempted to eliminate us from the planet.
After calling 9-1-1, the officers very carefully approached him, disarmed the bastard, handcuffed him, and took him for a 48-hour cooling-off period in the looney-bin.
There was more than one officer, but the one whose card I have, I just sent a thank-you note, cc-ing it to his Chief. Can you imagine that these guys and girls put themselves into the line of fire daily? Each day they are thrust into the very situation from which I called them to extract me.
Shuh! Can you believe how brave they are? Does that make them crazy too? How about our service men and women?
NO! I don't think they are crazy. I think they are young, bold, and trying to make a difference, make the world a better place.
So thanks Officer Freeman, thanks anyone else who was there, and thanks to all of the other law enforcement officers who are, for the most part, of impeccable character and certainly braver than anyone ought have the right to be.
Peace out.

Guess what! I frequent a little coffee joint in Argentine YES ARGENTINE, at the old mill, which sells FREE TRADE COFFEE as well as cheesecake, cookies and granola.
The 20 ounce size is a mere $1.00 because ya gots ta love living in the country without a ten-bux nearby!
Sgt. Freeman sent me a message, thanking me for the card and letter. He also stated that he was glad everything worked out well for me that night, and that he hoped I was doing well in California.
He said it's great to have that encouragement once in a while... that it's awesome to know that their work does not go unnoticed.
