Are
you too smart to work for Cookeville?
If your IQ is higher
than 100 you may never advance up the bureaucracy because you may be too
smart to work for your boss. This is why Cookeville Police Chief Bob Terry,
the candidate for the job with the least formal education, immediately
did away with the written test requirement for advancement to command positions
within the department. Hell, how smart do you have to be to pad your overtime
card? If you score too high, keep trying until you bring it down between
75 and 90.
You'll be blissful
you did.

Detritus- in nature, detritus is dead plant and animal matter that makes new life possible. The very bottom of the food chain, detritus is the rotting leaves in the forest, the silt on the bottom of the pond, the thick dark mud in the salt marsh. It sticks to your shoes, it smells, but someday it will be food for something else, and that something will be food in turn, on and on up the food chain until you pick it up in the supermarket and put it in your mouth.
