across amount church city desert effort fair fly jungle local middle rigorous trek
In a lot of the areas, it's not like you fly into the big city and take a taxicab to the local church or whatever. They have to trek to the middle of a jungle or across the desert on a camel. There is a fair amount rigorous effort to get where they are going.

across common found ought police shift skills slight sort sound thousands
All of that, I think, ought to sound like common sense. It's pretty reasonable. But what we've found is that in the tens of thousands of police departments across the country, that's a slight sort of shift in thinking. Most police departments don't have all the skills to do that.

sleep night smell
I enjoy having breakfast in bed. I like waking up to the smell of bacon, sue me. And since I don't have a butler, I have to do it myself. So, most nights before I go to bed, I will lay six strips of bacon out on my George Foreman grill. Then I go to sleep. When I wake up, I plug in the grill. I go back to sleep again. Then I wake up to the smell of crackling bacon. It is delicious, it's good for me, it's the perfect way to start the day.
