Is There Anybody Out There?
It's been almost three years since I posted an entry on this blog. Does anyone still read it? I am considering starting the blog up again and am wondering if there is any interest.
Observations and accounts of life as a police officer.

I hadn't checked for quite a while, but I was hoping you'd eventually start blogging again.

I just recently stumbled across your blog, and I would read! I have been interesting in law enforcement, and it has been interesting reading some of your posts!
I think you should bring it back. I recently read your whole blog, and just applied to be a police officer in my city. Your blog really helped in my decision. I just submitted my application yesterday, and I decided to follow your footsteps and blog about my experience applying and everything that goes through it.

I've love to see it. I'm thinking about becoming a police officer myself, it's nice to get an inside view on everything, to know what awaits me, and I appreciate you doing what you do.
I can't believe that I just found your blog today. I am married to a wonderful man that has been in Law Enforcement for 30 years. I hope that you wil continue to write in your private time about your hours on the road in your town. I love all the stories my husband comes home with. We cry, laugh and share everyday.
Started reading your blog when you started it and it has never left my bookmark list. Definitely interested!!!!
I'm thinking about applying to be a police officer in N.O., so I'm trying to collect as many first-hand experiences as I can. Your blog has been the best source I've found so far.
Still reading! Bring it back.
I found your blog about a year ago and spent an entire night reading every word. I randomly check back to see if you post anything new and to my surprise this time I find this...
I hope you are still considering and I think it would be awesome if you did!
yes please do
As a paramedic, it is really nice to read how life is "on the other side of the fence"if you will. I would love to make something like this from my perspective and I think you would be surprised how similar our stories are.. I love reading this!
Very important type of info for those of us trying to get into this career! Please come back!
Yes please. I'm 19 and looking into becoming a police officer and an insight would be greatly appreciated!

I found your blog this weekend and read the whole thing. I've been thinking about being a police officer which is something I've never really considered before, but recently it's been calling me. Thank you so much for your insight and experiences. Your blog is truly inspiring.
I wonder if he has made Detective yet, I remember reading that was his goal and that he could apply after 2 years of patrol experience.
Hello Gary,
I am a fellow Police Officer. I would appreciate you contact me. I would rather not talk about it on your blog.

I'm thinking about a career in law enforcement and stumbled across your blog. It's been incredibly helpful and entertaining. I read all your posts in about a week! Thanks for taking the time. Keep posting!
Yes, still around.

I just finished reading all of your posts. I would love it if you started up again!
Just found your site as son is looking at going to school in Athens. I'm loving it. Please continue (assuming it doesn't jeopardize your employment - which begs the question - how can they tell you you can't engage in lawful conduct while you're not on duty or otherwise representing the department)?
Definitely still in it for the long haul! As a prospective law enforcement agent, I find your posts sobering and somewhat hopeful.
I would be thrilled if this blog would see life again, Officer.

Hey Officer Gary, I loved reading your blog. The posts kept me interested everyday. I did not want the posts to end, they made me laugh, smile and feel like I was right there with you. The points you bring up are very thought provoking and I would love for you to write again, if it won't get you in trouble of course. I am a high schooler looking into the law enforcement field too. I would love to hear from you about going to college for it and any advice you have for me. Email is jakeedasnake@gmail.com
Thank you for the blog
