curiouser and curiouser the.. shifting sands of time-----i think we have a male person coming at 9:00to help with the lumber for the walls..... i dunno who.. should be camera entertainment... the walls...

in my past i have relied on the fire department as a source of large male beings who are generally fit and on a split shift of some sort- available on the off times.. when i told the fire chief that... he said he had never heard of it...i told him it was probably because i paid cash..

last time the police were in my house-- i did make note of the fact that one of the guys was just plain huge and filled my "living room"  so i did make note of the fact that he could probably lift 100 pounds of about anything one handed... not someone you would want to argue with...and someone who would be a huge help at lifting me out of wherever i might fall into. 

2 things.... my mother told me at a very young age.. if a policeman tells you to stop... you stop and just stand still. you can argue later.... i do not know why that is not taught to all children.

my second association is... when they make police uniforms. they should limit the size and shape to fit any "in shape" male or female officer.  i would outlaw any shirt that was made to accommodate the huge beer bellies often seen. "in uniform". then if they can not get dressed in uniform they can not go to work.. 

i wonder how human resources would deal with that .  

that concept comes to mind every time i see a ballooning. mid section-- or whenever i see a bunch of west point cadets... no balloons there either...

somebody told me once--- i don't think it was the internet.... that firemen or women have to be able to climb a ladder with 75 pounds of gear strapped to them..which reminds me. of a photo........ i don't know where i was... but i tried all that stuff on.... it is darn heavy...i could barely walk.... they would not let me go down the brass pole with all that on...

in the picture sizzle's nose can be seen saying "what on earth????"
