I will never figure how Caine could stand to wear coats in Miami!

Hello again, well regarding the episode where Erik thought that
Speedle was alive well its actually one of my favorites. Though
do need to mention the obvious plot hole which am surprised
nobody has posted about on this board. Tim Speedle died during
season 2 which was in 2004 and was buried at the beginning of
season 3. So then how do we explain that by the time of the
season 6, ep 4's "Bang Bang You're Debt" timeline in 2007
that Dan Cooper was able to access Speed's credit card? Since
we can assume that in all of the time that he was deceased
that his charge account would have been closed by his former
bank and the credit card would have been long canceled by 2007!
Though as you've pointed out Cooper was able to use the card
to make purchases until he was confronted by Erik & Calleigh.
And how did Cooper even manage to get ahold of the credit
card after Speed's death? All of these little facts still
continue to bug me eight years after the episode has aired!
I know that it is just a TV show though you really need to
suspend disbelief while watching! By the way my dad was also
a WW II veteran who also served in the US Army and retired
after 27 years of service. My dad was not a grunt as he
was in field artillery for several years and retired at the
rank of full bird colonel (pay grade O-6). My father loved
his MOS though he decided to change his specialty after he
earned his law degree and became an army jag attorney. Years
ago I brought home the VHS tape of "A Few Good Men" which
my dad and I watched together. I had seen it in a theatre
though it was my dad's first time to watch the movie and he
absolutely loved the script! Especially with his military
background having served in the jag corps. Though my dad
never had to deal with such a cocky and arrogant senior
officer as Col. Nathan R. Jessup! My dad was also impressed
with the performance by the then young Tom Cruise and I
was not an officer during my time in the navy though I did
know some legal affairs officers and paralegals. Here is
something you may not know about navy and Marine jag lawyers.
Unlike unrestricted line officers who either graduated from
the naval academy at Annapolis, MD or from NROTC and are
commissioned an ensign in the navy or 2nd lieutenant in
the Marine Corps. US Navy & Marine officers who graduate
from civilian law schools are commissioned two pay grades
higher unlike their counterparts I've mentioned. Navy lawyers
are direct commissioned at the rank of lieutenant (O-3)
while Marine lawyers are commissioned at the rank of
captain also O-3. This is standard procedure because
jag attorneys are categorized as staff corps officers
who are designated for duties within their chosen specialties.
If you've seen "A Few Good Men" then you'll recall that
Kevin Bacon's character of the prosecutor was Capt. Jack Ross
and Tom Cruise was Lt. JG Daniel Kaffee. Though he should
have been a full lieutenant so therefore director Rob Reiner
made a simple error in his rank which was not a big deal.
Lt. JG stands for lieutenant junior grade (O-2). Well enough
about military stuff and I got carried away! You're welcome
about my having served in the navy and I appreciate whenever
anybody has thanked me! I still wear my dog tags and get
thanked by strangers whenever people see my tags. Btw my
dad used to own two .45 ACP handguns from Colt Firearms
during his military years. Also known as the M1911 .45 ACP
semiautomatic pistol and he kept one at home and the other
at his office on post. The handgun was the standard issue
sidearm of our armed services personnel until 1986 when it
got replaced by the 9 mm handgun. Though it is still in
use these days by special forces and elite units. I also
rode the bus for several years while living in Campbell.
VTA no. 26 was my main means of commuting when I did not
own a car and it still runs east and west along Campbell
Avenue for many years though sometimes it would run late
and that was often aggravating to me! Btw as for CSI,
Erik Delko and Tim Speedle were my favorite characters
while Calleigh Duquesne was my least favorite person on
the show! Ryan Wolf was okay and Natalia Boa Vista was
so sexy! Did not like Frank Tripp at first though I did
warm up to him and could not stand Dr. Alex Woods since
she always spoke to corpses! Horatio Caine was great for
the team and the show though he sometimes really got on
my nerves too! And no you were not babbling at all since
I really enjoyed chatting with you about the TV show
and other subjects and take care.
