Actions and Words

 

Tonight, a woman told me

despite her 55 felony convictions,

she's had eight years clean,

so I should believe

what she is telling me.

 

 

Monday

 

Detox has re-opened, but the report writing software was down until Tuesday in the AM.

Happy Memorial Day. 

I'll see you on the street.

NCIS is back in town working buy and slides with our street crime unit. 

 

 

Mopery and PC

At roll call, a sergeant asked us to look for a mope,

 a person of interest in a smashing spree. 

 

"There's no probable cause at this time."

 

 

Another sergeant chimed in.

 

 "That guy is one of the top thieves

 of all time in the precinct.

 His name is probable cause."

 

Designated Driver

 

The purpose of a designated driver

is not to drink less than your friends.

It's to not drink at all.
