there, i just didn't want anyone to think that i didn't want to leave my e-mail address.

-etg. maybe.

i love the way everybody wants to "out" everybody else on the internet. anonimity is not an option. it's the norm. i could claim to be Greg, Tater (the real one), Tater2, Tater3, El Taco Grande, or Juan Valdez...that doesn't necessarily make it so. jw, or trooper52, or Tater2: calm down. everybody's anonymous on the internet, pal. if you're going to partake in the banter on the ccdc forums or the ccdc fotki archives, allow me to give you a bit of advice: if you're going to dish it out, you'd better damn well be willing to take it. the majority of the guys on here are cops. they deal with people that are one million times worse, threatening or dangerous that you can ever dream of being.

-etg. or am i? bwa ha ha ha ha! no. really, it's me.

There's no doubt about that. I'm as real as it gets.

I proclaim that you may be the real Tater. So maybe I am not the only one suffering from multiple personalities around here.

Ouch. It looks like Tater burned you good that time jw/tater2/trooper52. You may want to back off a little. He still seems to have some pull around here.

And you did not reply to my e-mail. Interesting!

Oh how I love it when the truly stupid get caught up in something way beyond their capabilities and they can't back out of it.

I received an email today. Since "tater2" told me about it here and there were NO OTHER EMAILS in the inbox, it had to be from him.

It's not much of an email, but to his credit there was only one glaring error ("you're" should have been "YOUR" in line #5)
Now here's the part where you should start to squirm. The return address in the email is james_m_75@verizon.net. This is the same return address used by jw in one of his other posts after he cried like a baby, demanded that the owner delete all my comments and then said he wouldn't be coming back. It's also the same address that I replied to the email 5 times that jw said he never got.

So now you pretend to stick up for yourself by refering to jw as a separate person in your tater2 and trooper52 posts? Don't forget when you posted using your real name James Wright and the same email return address on your posts in the model car page:

Dude. You're schizophrenic and suffering from multiple personality disorder. You don't need to be leaving comments here, you need to see a psychiatrist.

Their is an e-mail in your box. You are the one that needs to pick a real name instead of using a word that hicks use to refer to a potato. Are you an English teacher or something? You're probably an English teacher and a fat rent a cop that thinks he knows something about police work on the side.

"Tater2", you need to realize that you look like the bigger douchebag when, in a weak attempt to be whimsical, you yourself make a blatant grammatical infraction.

"Why don't you learn to spell" is a question and therefore requires proper punctuation. In this case, that is a question mark [ ? ].

Now granted, William may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer, but his questions and comments are genuine. You have compared him to our resident genius, the great jw. I will call a spade a spade and proclaim that you sir ARE jw and will further add that you're too big a chicken to leave an email address and too stupid to create your own original nickname.

Why don't you learn how to spell. Are you related to jw?

Why dont you just say names? And looks like your jsut one of us then arent you mr number two. So how did you figure this was not a chat room? You like to say alot of us run aroudn in here making point less comments however you do the same. i am thinking you hate us because you are just like us, or you admire soem of us.

A lot of useless comments today. Some people need to realize this is not an internet chat room. I won't mention any names. However its pretty obvious.

Is it that bad there? lol

the 98's were wired different, the brake and turns were seprate circuts on the fords

Here's a wierd thing about the 1998 CPD Fords. They did not have extra brake lamps in the lightbar. For '98 only, the red lights on the roof only worked with the turn signals and hazard lamps- not the brakes. In every other year since 1974, the red lights on the bar would be on when the brakes pedal is pressed.

No drivers Ed

And they still cant drive in Ill.

Does anyone know any good action movies filmed in Chicago in the late 70s early 80s ??? Other than the Bluesbrothers and Running Scared. thanks again.....

Thanks Greg for the reply. Which leaves me with another
question for you or anyone else in the know, does every police department give consent to show their cars on screen wether it's television or movies?, and do the operations of the departments have to be reflected in the portrayals?

Umm, no, I think this car is on duty with the Chicago PD. I should know, I shot the picture as it patrolled a Chicago street.
