The chief of police I am slaving for wants me to write in this journal. I’m not a sissy, but there’s nothing wrong with that either. I had no choice in the matter because I was her last option as a field agent. Jerry was on family leave, Michael was investigating a child abduction case and here I was, alone with my boss in our lonely, yet homey, police station.
It’s my last shift working in the office. I’m usually out patrolling the streets where the city hoodlums like to gather. They are usually doing something illegal, so I tend to go patrol there often. I’ve been there plenty of times. The kids down there know who I am, it’s funny because I’ve heard a few nicknames they had for me, and I don’t quite like them. Anyway, enough rambling about my troubles. I’m finishing this paragraph because I get out from work early. My boss told me I was getting off early so I would have ample of time to pack for the trip.

There have been quite a few missing people in the town of six hundred and seventy two. It’s troubling us, because for the whole twenty three years I’ve been working here, we have never once received a call from the town area. I guess the townsfolk are friendly. I’m anxious of going there, but in all honesty, I have no reason to be. It’s not like I’m going in unarmed. I’m bringing a simple pistol as I doubt I’ll need anything more. If worst comes to worst, I can simply dial up the nearest police station. The only bad thing I can think of is that Miller town is around a 7 hour drive from here. I don’t know why they can’t just get some other police force to do some surveying. I guess it’s because we are the biggest, and second closest
Today’s topic: Police Brutality “Yall haters corny with that illuminati mess, paparazzi catch my fly and my cocky dress. I’m so reckless when I rock my Givenchy dress. I’m so possessive so I rock his Roc necklaces. My daddy alabama, momma louisiana.
We sent 3 officers out to check out the field. They didn’t find the man, they did find a note. HE”S NEXT.
Dusk had come, silent, ceremonious, which brought her painful but pleasant memories in the diminishing light. Her shaking hands and arthritic fingers from the passing of time were holding the record player’s metal arm. The stylus hopped, moving lightly and quickly over damaged grooves from excessive use, landing very deep in the vinyl recording. She attempted again, one of her hands embracing the other, to the point where the overture’s rewarding hop and crepitation signified the precise spot. The incongruous speakers passed a faint melody of music.
The worn brass saxophone buzzed with arcane energy as I picked it up for the first time. Verdigris and rust crept out from underneath the joints binding the horn together and pockmarked the body of the instrument. Dark pits and long, deep scratches, like scars on a battleworn samurai of the Yamaha clan, covered the keys. The lacquer had been stripped off the body of the horn, but not the keywork, which created an odd, slightly unsettling contrast between the matte and shiny finishes. I almost thought that a vigorous rub would cause a genie to unfurl from the bell.
It was a beautiful day for the beautiful game of baseball to be played in the friendly confines of Wrigley Field, Chicago: breezy, sunny, but not a scorching hot, sweat-bead kind of day. Merely six miles south of Wrigley Field, we boarded the CTA purple line el train, along with clusters and clusters of Chicago Cubs fans also getting on each and every rail car from who knows where. But, let me tell you, I was in awe; I have never been with so many true fans who knew, not only baseball, but knew the Cubs! “Who’s ready for the Cubs to crush the Astros!”
Nestled deep in the Smoky Mountains, is a small cabin. The family it once sheltered has long been gone. Once filled with life and hope, it now sits empty and bare. It stands as a monument to a time long gone, but soon it to will disappear. Disintegrating on the outside, rotting on the inside, and drowning in the ever thickening forest, it slowly crumbles away.
It’s a cool evening March, I know so because the hairs on my arms can’t stop talking to me, and even though the sky is not really visible through the luscious grown forest trees I can still make out the eerie glow of the moon envelope the dark path that lays ahead. Suddenly I hear the crunch of footsteps; they were barely audible not much louder than a fading whisper noticeable among the forest seemingly holding its breath. I haven’t had much luck looking for the one they called Grendel and so I was tempted to sprint in the direction of the footsteps. The thought that it could have been my mind wanting to hear something that wasn’t there crept unto me as I decided to just slightly pick up my pace instead. As I kept going the only sound I heard

I’m a fucking sentinel, my only job is to guard the bridge that allows easy passage from the north to the south. Currently I'm stationed on the south side of the bridge on a sunny day with almost no clouds with small but refreshing breeze. All of this was ruined but the events occurring behind me. A southern tried to set the bridge ablaze last night but was caught and was charged to hang. Now he is standing at the edge of a unsteady plank, with the general on the other side keeping him from falling.
Old Harbor is split into three distinct areas: Uptown, Middle Town, and Downtown. I live near the end, towards the airport, in Uptown. From my driveway you can walk down the hill that the entire area is located on. Taking a left at the intersection, the ocean comes into view. To get to my favorite place in the village, you need to take another left, and go down the dirt road until you hit a small cliff.
While off-duty, officers may encounter situations, which cry for some type of law enforcement response. Some have said that there is practically no difference between on duty and off duty incidents, that law enforcement officers are officers 24-7 and that they may take action as off-duty officers as though they are on-duty. Off-duty incidents don 't only have the potential for similar legal issues as on-duty situations; they also have additional pitfalls not necessarily involved in on-duty encounters. Since off-duty battles involves many of these truthful issues and questions, this research paper is limited to a brief overview of a few potential risks and a summary of possible issues, which may confront officers and departments when dealing with off-duty

"Oh Caxton, I want to believe in your enamoring words. But you have professed them before. How do I know this time will be different?" "Ayleen . . . " the king suddenly paused.
The feel of this planet is somewhat warm and rocky, but unusual. The group me and my family were placed in were the first to land on Mars. We were told by NASA that Mars had mysterious events happening from time to time, but not to worry if we get involved. As told, we were to stay put till the ‘experts’ from other ships arrive to setup houses and little towns, but in the meantime, we were given tents to stay in. NASA gave us all little pan flips to read about Mars before venturing.
I stand at the tower as I see it, nothing but Fungus, Its spores, and the fallen. The smell of the bodies now under control of the fungus smells worse than death. It came from the south and spread across the kingdom. The first wave of troops went to combat it, out the 2 million troops that got sent out only 5 return. King Radclyffe; my brother, has declared that he will send out one last wave and if they fail then we’re doomed.
