A retired St. Louis County cop went to the local Wal-Mart. Whilst there he observed a suspicious looking lad hanging around the TV section. The cop in him said keep an eye on this guy he’s going to do something…and he did. He placed a small digital TV under his coat and headed for the exit.
The cop in him said catch this rapscallion, place him under arrest and report the information to the responding police units.
Get the peanut butter. Don’t worry about anything else, just get the peanut butter
OK, I’m a retired cop. I still carry a gun. I can do this. Then, from way back in his sub-conscious, this retired officer who pledged to uphold the law asked himself the burning question…”What would Fish do?”
After careful and thoughtful consideration the retired cop completed his original mission. To get a jar of peanut butter.
Good Call…that’s what Fish would do!!
