From the chief of Brimfield Police Department (Ohio) tonight on FB
Just had to share, love me some small town Ohio police folks at times (not always, but this guy is pretty cool)
Brimfield Police Department
Good evening….
We hope you are all doing well. It has been a hectic yet fun day. I had several deep thought moments during the day…..
•Zero turn mowers look cool. I use a push mower. I saw someone on a zero turn today and thought either I would love it and spend all day in a lawn mower rodeo…or get on it make a couple circles, turn green and throw up. I’ll stick with the push mower.
•I don’t get state and national politicians. If I were them I would get out amongst the people and drink some coffee. I’ve been here nine years as the chief of police. I have had ONE elected person drop by (excluding my bosses). I’m no Marshal Dillon…I get that. I don’t expect a line outside the door; however, get out of the capital city and see the people. I couldn’t do the job, because I am too goofy. If someone called for Senator Whosit and he wasn’t at work, I would give the reason why. “No ma’am…the other senator is not here. He must have a sore back, because he spends a lot of time at the massage parlor.”
•Speaking of elected folks….let’s stop forming committees to make decisions. Someone grow a pair and do something. Sorry for the language. There are too many cooks in the kitchen at times. Form a committee for a picnic location and not much else. When a kid needs protection, stop talking and start working. Elvis sang “A Little less Conversation and a Little More Action…” Copy that, Elvis.
•We’ve had loads of call from Hollywood. You all know me. I don’t care about fame, money or movie stars….other than John Wayne. I care about Chuck Norris too, because he is Chuck Norris. If there is something we could do to raise money for our kids, programs and community…and it did not make us look like village idiots in uniform, I will discuss it. Other than that, I’m liking life as an internet sensation. You guys are like a bunch of silly cousins.
•Every time I think about Viet Nam vets, I get weepy. These fellas had it bad. I love all of you.
•I saw World War Z today with my 14 year-old son. Zombies are really freaky. The fact it was in 3-D made it worse. I have to find a police specific weapon for zombies…and then give it to my officers. All you will see me doing is dropping to the fetal position and sucking my thumb. Sorry, but I know my limits.
I hope you all have a fantastic weekend. Please enjoy life and don’t let situations or people define who you are or how you act. We have one shot at life….let’s live it…….Chief Oliver
