Ha, ha, ha, ha! Well-put there, Milt. In Chicago, we find them at Dunkin' Donuts, usually just as crime breaks out nearby. lol. Nicely done, gw

I know this is a stereotype, but amazing the number of times I have seen our "men in blue" in places they should not be while on duty! P.S. I need to ask my son, a retired policeman, about that.

I hope they are right; I hope there is no crime where you are.

Ah, we here in Ashland don't have that much serious crime, I don't think. We're a pretty peaceful little town in eastern Kentucky.

Good one. I wonder if there is any crime at the zoo. It is a crime if one of the wild dangerous ones escapes. Thanks for your understanding comment on my page. Sara

Not likely. I think they were killing time. I don't know what I said, Sara, but you are very welcome. I usually don't comment unless it's good!
