I'm not good at tagging people (one reason I was always one of the last ones picked for tag. But I was really good at BEING tagged. Guess some things never change.)

How's THAT for a tag! Ooh, snap!

THat wa a wonderful post! I loved Ferris Day Off too, as well as Princess Bride.
I had to laugh at the swearing in the car part. I am pretty sure that Ryan still does that as he tries hard not to do it at home or accidentally in front of the kids. Some habits die hard, especially in the law enforcement business where language isn't exactly all flowers and roses.
this was fun to read about you! you're a rock star... i had fun visiting with you and Tracie on Saturday!

Really? No rhinestone glove? And I have to admit that your weekend DOES sound really fun, maybe if you had included a philly cheesesteak that would have boosted it u pa notch ;)
Dang Austin, I was hoping to dodge the tag.
muahahahahaha!
