Username: The first part "Ferris" is the name of the city where I first worked as a Police Officer, the second part "209" was my first badge number in that same city.
Avatar: I LOVE Columbo, so much so that I am currently building an actual 12" figure of him. I can't get enough of Peter Falk in that show, always cracked me up. Ironically, one can actually use some of his methods in real police work.
Title: Pretty obvious, I'm an original Texan (family has been here since the 1720's, as I've heard my elders say; we didn't come to America, it came to us) and a Star Wars freak. So, naturally I'm a Lone Star Jedi.
Signature: Lays out my political beliefs and associations. I generally do not post with my signature except in the Politics thread.
