It's Not Just Me

It's not just me making fun of the cops - the locals do it too!

At the grocery store yesterday, the clerk rang me up while her coworker stood nearby, jabbering on about something that happened to her the day before, an injury or accident of some sort.

She said she thought about calling the cops, but she knew she'd be seeing them at dinner. The clerk said, "Where, Tim Hortons?"

I wasn't sure if she was joking, because we've seen many a Hortons packed at dinner time, but her coworker laughed and said "No! My family's house!" [Someone in her family is an RCMP.] Then I laughed right along with them, and that felt good.
