I don't see you doing anything to help our country.
Except sitting at home, naked, eating twinkies, rubbing your hands together going "Heh. Target Destroyed. Mission Accomplished." Oh wait. that's not helping.
I'm sure I don't need to remind you all what happened Friday. That is not however the direct topic of this thread, but more on something that occurred today and how different it was from normal.
Today at me school we were put into white alert, a medical emergency. Now this would not be a problem on most days, just stay in class and keep out of the halls. Today was different. everyone got silent when they started the announcement and stayed silent as my teacher went to lock the door. It was about a minute before they clarified this was for a medical emergency and nothing else. Everyone was on edge, I'm assuming the teachers were told to lock their doors, as I saw a large number unlocking them as we moved to next period.
It's amazing all the change that one weekend caused, that now something that would normally just pass by is looked at with horror. When I left today for early leave whereas before people would hold doors open for people coming in, now they were let to shut and a look of understanding given.
The topic of this thread then is to discuss anything you felt was different in your school or work place today. Was it different Flood? Did anyone else get put on a lockdown today?
