Just recently we had a break-in where the thief actually got away with more stuff of sentimental value than anything else and no one was hurt, considering that we were all sleeping and snoring as loudly as possible while it happened...but anyway....the thief left a pretty legible hand print of dust on the surface of the sofa.
When the police turned up and I showed the officer in uniform the hand print , which was relatively small btw, the officer leaned in close and to my utter astonishment, humor and a fair amount of disbelief he wanted to press his fingertips to the hand print to dust it ever so lightly just to 'see if it really was a fingerprint' :o and jussssst before he touched it, I was like, you would been so proud of me...I was like ' Oh, No! Mr. Officer you cannot do that. Uh Uhhhh! They might want to see if they can get a fingerprint off of that. I said to him, where he back-stepped and nodded very vaguely.
And in this incredulous situation I thought to myself. If I know a teensy little bit more about forensics and the such than Mr. Brawny Police Cop Officer over here, then maybe :) I should be hired as sort of a leading Investigator Detective Sargeant or something like that. Because what I figured out....is that although 'they' say that you can't really learn real life stuff from watching all these detective shows on T.V I say that you can! :D
And considering I just outwitted Mr Brawny Police Cop Officer I think I shall declare me qualified enough. What about these qualifications for size...
For watching Season 1-9 of NCIS I say a Masters Degree in Forensics specializing in Computer Forensics!
For watching Season 1-5 of NCIS: LA A Bachelors Degree in Investigative Media Technology (that sounds so AWESOME they should actually make something like that!)
For watching CSI various seasons and various spins like NY, Miami, and the other one I forgot, a Higher Certificate should suffice, don't yet know in what....maybe in Fingerprinting!
And last of all for watching Law and Order from about 11 years old hat would make me have a PhD in Law.
I am soooooo in the loop! :)
