Yesterday morning I had a particularly bad case of post waking cognitive latency, which was partially cured when I opened my living room curtains and saw this:

In a classic race between the tortoise and the snail, two thoughts exploded off the starter blocks of my mind like a word spoken through a long yawn: 1) Crime scene investigation, wonder what happened? 2) Something isn't right here?

Then my poor, impaired powers of observation started to work as if I were actually awake, not somnambulistic. Lower mainland police services don't use black vehicles, we have names like "Integrated Crime Investigation Unit" not "Metro Division", and that logo doesn't look right. Either a film crew was in the area or someone got to borrow a prop.

I rewarded myself with a cup of coffee and had the presence of mind to snap a picture. If you recognize the van from a movie or TV show, let me know. I'm curious.
