You can get the book, BULLETS BADGES AND BULLSHIT, by Phil O'Brien at PUBLISH AMERICA P.O. Box 151, Frederick, MD 21705. $24.95 includes shipping and handling. It covers 25 years of police work in Fullerton - Laguna Rock Festival, Disneyland, robberies, burglaries, rapes, homicides, high-speed pursuits, practical jokes and weird people and policemen, lawyers and judges and their screw-ups in Fullerton. I've read it, and it's good --- a real eye opener. I thought we lived in a quiet, peaceful town --- wrong! You can get it online at http://www.publishamerica.com/bookstore/ Search for Bullets, Badges, and Bullshit. I tried to get him to soften the title, but he was firm about it. TOB
