A tale of two boots.

The expectations of modern criminology has forever been changed by television and all the forensics used on the various police shows. Being a quick study and an avid fan of several of these shows, I recently had an opportunity to be of a great help to the Salem, Oregon police. We arrived at the Salem Marriott in a driving rain storm, leaving most of our belongings in our pickup truck for the night. The following morning, in a Perot like manner, I observed the door lock had been removed and some of the contents of the truck stolen. When the police arrived, I told them I had studied the 'crime scene' and had identified the characteristics for which they should be looking, in the 'perp'! Indeed? They asked! Yes, he or she is a one legged man or woman with a one legged male or female accomplice! The rest of the interview went poorly. The two boots that were left, one mine and one Sandy's, are on the mantle next to me. We use them as flower pots!

***For those of you that have been asking for some Friday's stories, they are coming. I have several meetings this month with those who bleed red & white! Thanks for asking and for all for your support!
