Tornado Drill!
Just like that winter is turning to spring and in Kansas that means one thing -- let the tornado drills begin! Kansas is holding a statewide tornado drill on Wednesday, March 5th. Imagine sirens going off across all the land! What to wear on such an occasion? Something with fabric that breathes, appropriate for squeezing against other bodies in a tight hallway, and durable for those crawling on hands and knees into a cellar or basement. So mark your calendars. Pack a picnic lunch. A fine time to be had by all.
'Round these parts, the warning sirens go off every day at noon and 6PM. The locals stop and hold their ears until it slowly subsides to a tolerable decibel level. The tourists don't know what to do. Most just stare wide-eyed at all the people holding their ears like we might be waiting for the bomb to go off...which doesn't give them much confidence that this isn't the end. I've always thought that, if I were a tornado, I would show up at noon...easy pickin's!
ReplyDeleteEvery day at noon and 6 pm! Wow. Who's running the siren? A doomsday cult? I can just imagine you as a tornado, and showing up at noon is exactly what you would do, ha ha.
