Cypress PD Open House

Today's family outing was at the Cypress Police Department's Open House. We were lured by the free hotdogs, chips and soda, but there was some other cool stuff too.

There was a K-9 demo with a dog that speaks Czech. One of the other officers pretended to be a bad guy and this officer pulled him over and had the dog attack him. Too bad I couldn't get a picture of the attack.

We saw Commander Chuck Street of KIIS FM fame with his Diet Pepsi helicopter.

Finally, we took a tour of the police station. I guess we should've asked how long it was beforehand. I thought it would be a ten-minute walk through, but it ended up being a fairly detailed 45 minute rundown of everything from the records office to the shooting range and jail cells. Although it was pretty interesting, k was definitely getting restless.

    Didn't know you guys spoke Czech. What did the dog say? How did the free hot dogs rate on your food scale?

    I guess I should clarify and say that the dog understands Czech, not speaks it. :) The hot dogs were normal, nothing to write home about. They were warm, which is about all you can ask for in a free hot dog.
