She Really Ought to Blog

How would you like to be 800 miles southwest of Anchorage, Alaska, right on the Bering see (looking at Russia, I would imagine), trying to make life interesting? Oh sure, there's the footage from "The Most Dangerous Catch" that is filmed on fishing boats from there, but that's a bit too adventuresome for most of us. It seems a logical choice, however, for Jennifer Shockley. After all, she'd been a Peace Corps volunteer in Cameroon, and she'd trained policemen in Kosovo with the United Nations. It only seems right that she'd end up a police officer in Unalaska, Alaska: a place where recently a person on a bike was stopped who had blood smeared around his mouth and some dripping from his arm. His explanation? His girlfriend was a vampire!

And so it goes for Sgt. Shockley who has the duty of writing the police reports. Her writing style, it seems, has captivated the world. That's right: people from all over the world read her police reports. As you might imagine, they are things of beauty, written with the soul of a literary vagabond and appearing in the Unalaska Advertiser. I can offer no greater tribute than to submit the URL to the "Police Blotter Read Around the World" as it was billed in the Los Angeles Times.
Enjoy
