Cops are rediculous. They treat everyone like they're criminals. Like yesterday for example, my mom told me she got pulled over because a cop behind her ran her tag. The cop was flipping out on her telling her that she stole a tag because her tag was registered for a Mercedes... he entered a D instead of a B. He had asked her for her license and registration and she keeps that stuff down in the side panel of her door so she had to open the door to get to it and the cop almost pulled a gun on her yelling to shut the door. I keep replaying all the things that COULD have happened ;/ I don`t hate cops but police officers that act like that and just want to annoy and mess with people and get away with it because they have a badge and gun don`t get any respect from me what so ever.

My husband was working 2nd shift and was on his way home at about midnight.He was driving our mini van when he was pulled over for having a tail light out.The officer ran his VIN and and the van came up stolen so the officer started yelling at my hubby telling him to get out of the van and get face down on the ground(on the expressway) 2 other squads pulled up and pulled their guns yelling at him and telling him not to move.(he was so scared)he told them the van was not stolen and that they should call me to verify they checked the VIN again and found they had been off by a number they were still very aggressive but they let him go and did indeed give him the ticket for the tail light never once apologizing foe their mistake when he got home he was so he was so upset.

I'm glad no cop has ever fucked with me like that, I have a bit of a temper sometimes, especially when people are yelling at me.

Me too. I either start yelling back or I get so mad that I cry. The last time I was involved with the police was when an old lady pulled out in front of me from a stop sign and I ended up hitting her. The cop showed up and told me that my license was suspended and that he was going to arrest me. So he calls my mom at her work and tells her that she needed to leave work and come pick up my car before it was towed. He also told her that I was going to jail and my mom told me that all she could hear in the background was me screaming at him to take me to jail. I don't remember doing that, but she does. I do remember telling him that he wasn't a real cop..real cops would hae lights on their police car. His car didn't have lights, lol. Traffic cops are the worst cops.
I'm glad I've kind of grown out of that stage though.

I haven't had to deal with a cop since my teens so I wouldn't know if I've grown out of "it", my guess is no

. Meet Captain Lisa Nowak (a.k.a. "WACK") of the International Space Station. Nowak put on a disguise, drove 900 miles wearing a diaper (so she wouldn't have to stop to pee) to confront, kidnap and kill a woman whom she thought was screwing a space shuttle pilot she was carrying a torch for. Oh, by the way, Nowak is MARRIED and has three children... Cops found pepper-spray, a BB gun, a steel mallet, a 4-inch folding knife, rubber tubing, and garbage bags in her possession which she intended to use on the woman who got away.

This unbelievable, if that were me I would probably be in jail from beating the shit out that guy. Of course there are always two sides to the story so maybe there is more to it. www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,250793,00.html

This is awesome. news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20070206/sc_nm/italy_embrace_dc;_ylt=An42XApc.EuvuOOV7YPVDMUDW7oFArchaeologists in Italy have discovered a couple buried 5,000 to 6,000 years ago, hugging each other. "It's an extraordinary case," said Elena Menotti, who led the team on their dig near the northern city of Mantova. "There has not been a double burial found in the Neolithic period, much less two people hugging -- and they really are hugging." Menotti said she believed the two, almost certainly a man and a woman although that needs to be confirmed, died young because their teeth were mostly intact and not worn down. "I must say that when we discovered it, we all became very excited. I've been doing this job for 25 years. I've done digs at Pompeii, all the famous sites," she told Reuters. "But I've never been so moved because this is the discovery of something special." A laboratory will now try to determine the couple's age at the time of death and how long they had been buried.

Awesome story Shana! I am very interested in archaeology. I'll have to follow this story and see if they can figure out what their cause of death was.

Amazing story Shana, and it is in Italy I haven't heard about this, and Mantova it's not too far away from my city.

OOh Marika, if I lived there I would find a way to travel there to see it myself. I find stuff like that so interesting. I would wonder how they died.. if they were both deceased before they were buried, if they layed down together and died together, etc.
