Career choices

I am so sad that Don Knotts passed away a few days ago. My father is a huge fan of the Andy Griffith Show, and who didn't love The Apple Dumpling Gang? And Andy Griffith was at his bedside when he passed away.

I briefly toyed with the idea of going into law enforcement when I was younger and decided not to for three reasons. One, I would pull people over all the time just for the fun of it. Two, I don't think I would enjoy the bacon jokes. Three, what if my co-workers and fellow officers thought of me as a Barney Fife and wouldn't let me load my gun? Ok, there might be some other reasons I opted out on that career for my current choice (like having my summers allegedly free and being able to go get a cup of coffee whenever I feel like it and having an office to turn into an homage to Elvis) but you were all thisclose to having Deputy Ace defending your town.

I would have kicked ass as a deputy, just for the record.
