I always wanted to say “[I’m in] hot pursuit!” on the radio when when I was on patrol…but I never did…because I never got involved in any hot pursuits…and I didn’t get involved in any regular pursuits either.

Open a small donut/coffee shop and name it “Hot Pursuit” then you can tell all your friends and family when you’re in hot pursuit.
Sounds less donut/coffee and more summer clothing for cats.
Are you in MENSA?
No, but I did stay at a Navy Lodge!
Now there's an ad campaign waiting to happen.
"Hey bro, did you go swimming in raw sewage last night?"
"No, but I did stay in a Navy Lodge last night."
"Whoa, what's that sore on your lip? Had too much fun in the liberty port last week?"
"No, but I did stay..."
A year or two ago I got a free upgrade from Avis on a work trip to STL, and drove off with a brand new Explorer with like 26 miles on the odo. Oh man, I had no idea how nice they made those things. It had everything, lane assist, AC seats blowing cold air up my b hole, just every option.

You must have an older vehicle because a lot of those things are standard on a lot of vehicles today. I have read Ford has some of the best cooled seats in the auto industry. I have a Toyota 4Runner with the Softex seating (an artificial leather-like material but more robust than real leather). It has heated seats, but they aren't cooled or ventilated. A benefit is since there is no porous-ness to them, they are great if you say spill something on them, but Holy Hell do they get HOT in the summer time. I purchased a ventilated seat cover which, while I am sure not as nice as actual ventilated or cooled seats, has been wonderful for the hot days. I plug it in and it pulls air conditioned air from the lower vents in and blows it on my back and butt. Can be 90+ degrees out and no sweat on my back or rear.
My airport car is now 21 years old, and my fun car is 34 years old. So yes. Although my wife's Honda Pilot was born last year. She doesn't appreciate history as much as me
Meanwhile I remember in Corpus Christi the officer taught us how to a) spot their single unmarked car, and b) how to properly include the military ID in the transaction if/when you get pulled over. Total bro.
Makes me think of the late '80's, the first time I was at NAS Dallas. South Merrifield Rd. and Mountain Creek Pkwy were little-used 2-lane blacktop roads with 35 MPH speed limits that ran along the east side of Mountain Creek Lake, that were a longer commute home, but bypassed traffic issues. I got stopped one day doing about 60. The Dallas police officer who stopped me let it slip out that the Dallas PD were not to issue speeding tickets to uniformed military personnel transiting to or from the base, but to only give warnings. I was pulled over 2 more times after that, and only given a warning each time. 😎
When I was going through Corpus, the officer briefed us on their lack of open container laws (even while driving alone 🥲) Pretty sure the laws have changed since then..
WRT @zipmartin ' post, same/same in NC. Got pulled over twice in my flightsuit heading towards Wilmington, and just got a warning.
JRB Dallas is a freaking maze. Good luck finding the TSW building on google. It will send you to either the Lockheed side, or a meth encampment.
Thanks for the 60th b-day shirt @ChuckMK23…wearing it for Speedy Tuesday…good times!
