Mods- Sorry for the off topic reply, will be the last. Yep- The Border Patrol is doing my background now but that's all I have that looks promising. I'm supposed to interview with Houston P.D. next month and get all my stuff outta the way, that may look promising as well. I'd love Chicago but I don't know if I can play the waiting game. I have Bridgeview, Oak Lawn (physical), Decatur, Springfield, Palatine, Buffalo Grove all coming up but none look like a shoe-in job. I'm in good shape (5'9, 165), will have a B.A. and only have 2 speeding tickets. We'll see what happens though. A masters in Criminology? You shouldn't have a problem getting into private investigations or a federal job right? The only thing is the lack of experience might get you.

He's not good at baseball

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Apr 1, 2009 -> 01:54 PM) There is zero percent chance in hell I could sit and reach past my toes, thats such a dumb fitness test. It's really not bad at all Rock. You put your foot against a box and have to reach forward and move a lever forward, I believe 16 inches. The bench can be difficult especially after running 1.5 miles outside. The bench also varies as it can either be free weights or the universal chest press which I find easier. My experiences with testing has always been pretty easy but the sit-ups are the most intimidating. I always had another applicant holding my feet and counting and it depends on the instructors; they are either looking or talking to another instructor. I test at an actual testing center called NIPSTA the 16th and I assume they're going to be more strict than restless off-duty officers at 9 am on a Saturday. Good luck Flash. I'm coming out of college this coming May with a B.A. in Criminal Justice and thought it would be easy to get a cop job. However, due to the Internet and a bad economy, 400 people are showing up to each test for 1-3 jobs max. Security here I come !

Let me get in on this, set me up!

I know there a good amount of college posters on here, so where ya goin? I'm in my last year at ISU and like the rest of the college nation; most of my friends are going to Panama City. My roomates and I decided to take a roadtrip and head down to Corpus Christi, Texas. Any tips/recommendations on bars, restaurants, beaches?

ISU is good at partying but not performing well in basketball.

RIP Johnny Red Kerr, growing up in the 90's, bulls basketball was nothing without you. This bulls season has been weird not hearing/seeing Red as often, now he will be missed forever.

That's upsetting news, RIP NORM

My friend thinks this is a strong possibility of Jacob- I kind of agree, it makes sense. http://www.buddytv.com/articles/Image/LOST/egg411-horace.jpg

I came home drunk and checked my facebook. It was an ex-girlfriend from 15 years ago, who now happens to be hotter than any girl I've been with since. She's a model. FML

Is this for xbox live or ps3? I guess I should read more into the past posts, sorry guys!

I have both, so let me know, BTRAIN1105 add me.

I hate when I lost something and someone asks where'd ya leave it last?

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Jan 27, 2009 -> 05:21 PM) Why do you even go to college? You don't seem to enjoy a single thing about it. I'm a big fan of college, I just hate the things mentioned above. I'm pretty sure many people don't like/hate most of what I put on there. Sorry if you feel different.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Dec 21, 2008 -> 05:04 AM) I am in fact, drunk. It's fantastic. No one on this stie except me cares abotu ISU baketball but me, I am purposeflyu not correcting my spellig mistakes like I normally do. buzzed, as a fellow ISU student. ISU b-ball is good but has no inside game at all. O an d Champ are awesome but Sampay and Dinma "Stonehands" Odiakosa won't get us anywhere. I miss Slack.

The Xbox online experience I'd say is larger and better, so that's why I went with the 360. Everyone knows what Xbox Live is and I couldn't even tell ya what the PS3 online experience is called.

I have the 360 for XBOX Live in order to play Madden, NHL and COD against others but I miss MLB The Show terribly.

Amazon has a package of seasons 1-3 for $59 with free shipping http://www.amazon.com/Lost-Complete-Season...?tag=slickdeals

Anyone play NHL 09 online for 360? I'm struggling a bit but I really don't use the Be a Pro mode or anything else but on-line play. Gamertag is BTRAIN1105

In unrelated news but just as important, Kerry Sayers parted ways with Comcast this week. I read it in today's Sun-Times. No more eye-candy, I still have the milf that is Gail Fischer.

Where the hell is Tom Petty?

Nick Swisher, well a good guy to have a beer with but a bad baseball player for the White Sox. Good Luck. I for one, won't miss when he shook his head and smirked after every strikeout looking

Wouldn't be surprised to see Jenks go to the Mets at all. KW will get his guys in Street and Taveras from the Rockies, unfortunately.
