Many years ago was sitting in a bar that a friend owned on the very near west side of Chicago, with a precinct a block away at most. The newest graduating class of their PD accademy just graduated that day, and it was about midnight and most of the class was in there getting hammered. One of the officers goes out into the parking lot and fires his .45 up into the air a couple of times and comes back in. A few minutes later the whole bar gets raided by that precinct and they want to know who fired it off. Naturally eveyone shrugs and says in drunken stupors, "Not me". Them guys were not palying even though they were their own. They started with strip searches cause they were mad, mad, mad, and then finally someone gave it up. I don't recall what happened to whoever it was.
Another time way on the far north westside, I stop into by buddy's tavern, and there's one of my neighbors, all tanked up, and a he was Chicago copper. My block was the last one on the edge of the suburbs and firemen and coppers had to live in the city limits, so every other house was a copper or fireman with civilians like me peppered in. Anyway, my neighbor is so hammered that he can barely sit on the stool and he showing my bar owner friend his nickle plated .45, and it was loaded, and he dropped that thing on the floor about a half dozen times at least. Never did go off thank god. Man people were ducking.
Back in the early '80's while stationed in Mannheim Germany when the "Big Mac Attack" was just getting popular, one of my buddies went into a McDonalds, hammered, and layed down on the floor and started convulsing. After a few minutes of that and calling an ambulance, he got on his feet and admitted to having a "Big Mac Attack", and the German Polezi did not take kindly to that. He got roughed up all the way out into the car in cuffs. He got an Article 15 from the Army too for being AWOL while he was locked up downtown Mannhiem.

Today's Featured Article - The Rescue of a Fordson F - by Anthony West. Introduction I live in the UK and have for many years restored Fordson tractors (in the main model N's). I have also restored and shown model F's, E 27N's, Field Marshall Series 2, David Brown Cropmasters and the old rey Fergeson T 20.
