Happy Thanksgiving

Just trying to get through the holiday.

As always, wishing each and every one of our readers a Happy and Safe Thanksgiving Holiday.

If you're lucky enough to be off, spare a thought for all of us currently on the street.

Comments will be updated when we have a chance.

And for all you traditionalists:

A true biker hits the trails on Thanksgiving, just like a
hard core skier on New Year's Day. While the schlubs
have hangovers, the downhill racers enjoy virgin powder.

Gear Head Charlie Beck....
Which is better? Slick50 or TufOil?
Well we'll soon find out. Charlie will torture test two identical
dirt bikes, tear down the engines, and send them away for
inspection. Charlie 'DIRT' Beck. You can take the cop out
of the trail, but you can't take the trail out of the cop. It's in
his blood, his crankcase. But really Charlie, we thought you
would be Hoovering Chicago dirt by now. Know your way
around yet? Read the blogs, you fool.

From a 36-year retiree- Please be careful out there.

Years ago we arrested some clown for stabbing his brother to death over a pork chop. When we took him to the lockup at Gresham I asked him "Well, how was it?" He sneered at me and said "How was what, MRer". I said "The pork chop".

All of a sudden he gets this big smile and a very happy look and says "It was dee-licious".

Fuck Uber/Lyft. Rahm’s brother is a big investor in Uber. The drivers are complete assholes who are not properly vetted/screened, and they’re everywhere, causing more traffic. Remember when your parents told you not to get into a stranger’s car?! Glorified cab drivers, that’s all they are. At least the cab company is regulated.

Speak for yourself, you pompous ass.

Sometimes I listen to CPD calls on Broadcastify.com. Once in a while, I monitor Zone 10 with all the nonstop violence. I am not alone. While other CPD radio zones have just a few listeners on their listed count, Zone 10 is always in triple digits. Why are you so judgmental?

Take a midnight stroll near Madison St. and Pulaski Rd. As retired CPD, I'm staying cozy at home as Fillmo' gets bloodier than any station house in the nation. Hold me down for a fine Cuban cigar and a single malt scotch neat, squad.

Be careful out there, guys. You well deserve hazardous duty pay from the corrupt assholes at City Hall and the empty-holstered clout babies at Fort Fellatio.
