I remember those Duck and Cover Drills as a kid.

from a nuclear attack. This was during the Bay of Pigs crap with Cuba having nukes 90 miles from the U.S.

Also the days when you left the house unlocked when you went

tone warble. The teachers would tell us to only take what is special or important to us. Our chemistry teacher was maybe 21, a little petite brunette, maybe 5'2" and stacked in all the right places. I was a senior at the time. When the bell went off she started yelling for us to do the fire drill (go out in the hall and stand near the nearest exit), so I ran up the isle and grabbed her and carried her out into the hallway. She kept saying for me to put her down. I told her I couldn't until the all clear bell went off. Surprisingly I didn't get into any trouble. But later I did think that maybe I should have taken her out the door and out to my '60 Chevy but that might have taken things too far.

They used to put us in the hall and tell us to put our heads between our knees. That' where I learned the expression
" Kiss your a** goodbye"

But… you have to remember!

Way back when we were in school the desks were very heavy and could protect us from anything! Todays desks, will only help the melt!

Remember those Cuban missile pictures at the UN? Some of those missile pics are mine, VMCJ-2 and VP-63, Cherry Point to Key West, to Cuba, to Gitmo to refuel, and one more over Cuba and to Key West!

Excellent! Thank you.
