Growing Up In the Cold War Era and Other Ridiculous Things
Cold war. Insane, tyrannical, communist dictators. Three days. School drills. Duck and cover.
Because everybody knows a school desk is kryptonite to a nuclear warhead and underneath that desk is the one place that deadly radiation would never think to look for you.
Oy, veh.
When we had these drills at school, the teachers were always maniacally concerned with keeping us from talking while hunched down under our desks. They were the same way about tornado drills. Apparently it's very important to remain silent while the roaring F5 is sucking you up like milk through a straw.
Idiots.
Idiots.
