All the while creating laws surrounding the infected ones that were far too ridiculous to follow, or to work.And then, the bombs fell.Seventeen years later and the only humans left roaming the lands were the infected, along with small groups of survivors. Primarily gangs, they sought only to rob and kill the few innocent people that were left trying to survive on their own.

143,95 kr. Have you ever sat with friends around a campfire and overheard someone telling a story, or had a family member tell a tall tale, and you thought to yourself, "Did that truly happen?" Two Seasons is about stories that have been handed down, withpossibly just a bit of exaggeration added as many good tales traditionally have.Set in a fictitious and very rural northern Maine township, you may just recognize the setting as a place you've visited, or one of its unique residents as someone you've met before.Wilomena Farnsworth Miller, better known around town as Ma, is the town's matriarch. She's ornery, opinionated, and at no time politically correct. Nonetheless, the townsfolk adore her (mostly), and wouldn't have her be any other way. Ma owns and operates the local diner where the townsfolk spend the majority of their time enjoying a home-cooked meal,gossiping, and telling tales of their own. Whether it be a hunting trip, a day out fishing, or spending time at the local fair,Ma is sure to get herself into a pot of trouble. And, many times dragging others down the rabbit hole along with her.Two Seasons contains amusing adventures had by Ma and the residents of East Puddleduck. A few of which are based on real people and actual events.

138,95 kr. So, the question remains, are police officers real people? Are they all born to be cops? Do they skip childhood and go straight into a blue uniform? Do they have families and friends? Do they make mistakes along the way just like everyone else does? Do they choose plain glazed when the obvious choice is jelly cream-filled? The truth, my friends, is they're real people just like you.Peanut Butter Memoirs is a true story about one person's journey to becoming a law enforcement officer in northern Maine. It's funny, sad, serious, and real. Along the way, author David Wilson experiences life and the unique people around him. He discovers that we're not all born to be cops. In fact, for Wilson, it wasn't his first career choice at all. The book details the author's early work as a police, fire, and EMS dispatcher, to his training at the Maine Criminal Justice Academy, and into full-time law enforcement. Ultimately, David will follow his path to his chosen specialty of investigating drug crimes, serving with the Maine Drug Enforcement Agency, and becoming a Drug Recognition Expert and instructor. The tales Wilson tells will show that whether the call for service was routinely mundane, or life-threatening, there's a story within each situation that involves real people answering the calls for service.The book is a true account, at times humorous, at times candidly serious, and, at times opinionated, of one man's journey. What you'll discover by reading the book is that we're all different, we're all the same, we're all human, and police officers everywhere are real people.
