I had just left the Rocky Mount store and headed north on 95 to the Roanoke Rapids store around 2:40 or so. I had cops passing me on both sides, including the shoulder; at least 10 cars. Around the 155/156 mile marker, there were at least 30 cop cars parked on the side of the road southbound. Almost all of them had on vests and were carrying rifles. More cops were back in a field. Around the 172/171 were cops stopping each vehicle and searching. Traffic was backed up to the 173 in RR by the time I got there (my exit).

Coming back, 173 on ramp was closed and they were shutting down southbound. I took the back road to 301. There about where the sign is for the Halifax Academy, was another roadblock. My truck has a camper shell on the back, with the only a little window on the back door and no side windows. I knew I was gonna get searched. Sure enough, they searched my truck.

I hope they catch them tonight. I can't imagine living in the area; I'd be locked and loaded.

Story time. Just a week or two ago I walked home from my friends house because I was pretty drunk. About a two miles, took about 30 min to walk it. I was on my street walking up the hill to my house and two cops pull up behind me. He checked my ID and asked why I was here and told him I was walking home and asked him for a ride the rest of the way. He responded "No, I only take people to jail." To protect and serve, right?

I have sympathy for the man who got shot, and his family. But as for his line of work? Couldn't care less.

      I was playing around with the ESPN playoff predictor and it shows if 49ers and Rams finish with same record, the Rams hold the tiebreaker.

      This is my thinking as well. Seattle played as good as they could on defense and Panthers still had a chance until those back to back turnovers.  I don't think the Rams played particularly well in their game against us, alot things went our way in order to win.  Someone pointed out the Rams were bad on the east coast road games and Seattle has been the better road team but they just fought a hard contested game against the Panthers, and now they travel to San Fran this week for their biggest game of the season to determine the division and if they are the overall #1 seed in the NFC or will be traveling for the Wildcard weekend.  If they lose they then travel back cross the country to play a team they've just beaten two weeks ago, not saying they won't be favored against the Panthers but the energy of hosting our first playoff game in 10 years along with the get back effect of having just lost to this team could be huge.
