      Officer: “Miss, you’ve been identified as someone Randy D has scheduled for a dinner date. He’s put in a request that we locate you and ensure your safe arrival. After that, everything else is up to him. Now if you’ll please just follow me in your car, I’ll escort you to the restaurant . . . ”

      HoneyDew five minutes later: (((Wait, this isn’t the way to Restaurant Row, I’m being escorted into the secure parking garage at Police Headquarters! The sign over there says ‘Interrogation Section, Major Crimes Investigation Squad‘! Major Crimes???  What kind of trouble has Randy D gotten me into this time? Grrrrrrr.)))

    Threatening to remove the shift key from my keyboard is not a very good threat.  I can just get a new keyboard.

      You’re a smart cookie, that’s why I keep you around. They’ll never make their case stick if they’re counting on getting any incriminating information out of you!

    According to my notifications, you had replied to one of my posts in this thread but I see nothing nothing. And, also according to my notifications, you had 'liked' three posts of mine today that must be gone because there is no way to find the exact posts.
    So, in case you asked for a response from me, you'll know why you didn't get one.  :)

    WAIT!!! I suddenly know what post it was in this thread! What you said would happen indeed, happened again!  :)

    I thought the same thing. I miss the ones we had in the Navy. They are probably using 9mm now. This post was edited by Element 99 at April 9, 2021 6:32 PM MDT

    I kept thinking for an answer when I first read your question and there were no other posted answers.
    And, still, I can only keep coming back to my original thought -- shiny or not, if someone waved anything in front of my face, I'd be distracted no matter how hard I tried.
