I’d call it good risk management but something else may be at play in this instance. I’ve looked at your videos Crag and you look about my age. I believe you’re from the generation that learned to “duck and cover” in the first grade. If you’re a great deal younger, I apologize and you need to get out of the sun but if you’re my age, we’ve been hiding under desks for a long time and are damn tired of the position. At six years of age, sitting in a class when your teacher explains that bad people want to drop a thermonuclear device on your neighborhood, well, fifty or sixty years later, hurricanes don’t mean squat. At least hurricanes seem normal. What’s normal about incinerating a classroom of kids?

Sorry for the ramblings but a neighbor kid just came back from Iraq in a box this week. This was his payment for the fear that’s continuously shoved down our throats. Somehow or another, I don’t feel safer, just empty and I’m really fed up squatting under my desk. A hurricane seems so simple.
