Everyday any given UNIT.... will stop at a 7/11 anytime for a quart
of "chocolate milk" and a big "moon pie" (free) and take a 30 minute "siesta".

The three (3) most important rules taught at the Police Academy:
1.Cops never get wet!
2.Cops never go hungry!
3.Look up to all "Rent-a-Cops"..they know how to work the system!

Gotta Love It!
