I so appreciate our law enforcement. I stand behind them.

Check at ACE hardware, I think a saw adapters to allow for a standard base bulb, if it will fit. They also have the BLUE CFL bulbs.

When police respond to neighborhood complaints I am always happy to see more police to tame the abundent reckless/careless driving here in TV.
And amused if and when it is one of the compaliners that gets nailed.

Correct. It was reported that the Lady Lake PD was running a 2 week anti-speeding campaign targeting anyone traveling at least 6 MPH over.

I applaud their efforts. I sometimes feel like I'm going to get run over because I stick within 5 MPH of the speed limit. This especially happens on Paige Place crossing the bridge into Spanish Springs where the limit is actually 10 MPH.

Bicycles are often passing me, but I'm afraid I'll get pulled over if I try to even just go 20.

Anyone who complains about receiving a citation for doing something illegal -

Jullie: It seems other posters missed your point. I too saw the police strategically placed and parked with their light flashing at Buena vista and 466 and wondered if a) it had anything to do with the Paris attack or b) some VP was again visiting the Morse or c) there was a book signing taking place. d) a funeral

Anyway I was out and about early and saw them and then my wife went out and also found they were still parked conspicuously

I thought about calling community watch who also were more active with flashing lights and patrolling around but then did not want to bother them with any silliness since they seem to be conducting some serious business.

Personal Best Regards:

They were also parked in the roundabout at BV and St. Charles; two cars.

On Saturday they were strategically placed with lights flashing because of a bicycle event. I have seen them checking speed in several places recently inside TV and on 27.

Yes, I saw that too, in several places. I understand that it was a benefit ride on behalf of TV Hospital. Good cause!

Unless, of course, you're at the airport, where the rain in Spain falls mainly on the plane.
