Have you ever delivered a baby or anything that out of the ordinary?
2. 1995 Saturn SL2 5-speed, 126,500 miles. 5,000 miles in two and a half months. That works out to 24,000 miles per year if I can keep up the pace.

I don't care about all that shit.  I'll be going to college to get an education at a cost to my parents.  I'm not going to fool around.

She'll hate diesel passenger cars, all things Ford, and fiat currency.  They will masturbate to old interviews of Ayn Rand an youtube together.

I didn't finish the deliveries because EMS is usually not all that far behind me but I've started probably 3 or 4- I don't think I would honestly call that out of the ordinary but it's less ordinary than the other stuff in that video.

I did two ride-alongs with my local police department as part of a citizen's police academy class.  Not quite cop for a day, but the next best thing.

I was instructed not to get involved in anything, just to observe.  We rushed with lights and sirens on to a traffic stop where backup was requested, as well as to a house where a 15-year-old boy was threatening to set a roll of toilet paper on fire after a fight with his mother.

One of my ride-alongs ended with the police car getting stuck in the mud behind a house where we were responding as backup to a (false) burglar alarm signal.  The car had to be pulled out of the mud by a tow truck.

It was a great experience.

57,000 people?  Yes.  Very small.  This department serves roughly 200,000 with another 200,000 going through here on the freeways.  My last department served over a million- not now but then it was over a mill.
