    Time to dig a bomb shelter

    And stock it with food, water and medical supplies like we did back in the 1960s during the Cuban Missile crisis.

    Naw... when the sirens go off I’m grabbing a six pack and a bourbon fifth, my sunglasses and heading for the deck to watch the fireworks.

    But I’m curious on how you arrived at this concern?

    Putin is either crazy as hell or he wants the world to think he is crazy as hell. And the latter means that he really is crazy as hell. The Russians have been building bomb shelters for nuclear war for a long time. They are ready and we are not.

    I was just joking about building a bomb shelter. At my age I don't want to live in a post nuclear war world. So I'll probably join in on the party and get drunk before the fireworks go off.

    When I was a kid in grammar school, they had us hide under our desks in the classroom. There were glass windows all along the wall and we were not any safer under the desk than sitting in our chairs. But we didn't have a basement to go to back then.

    I remember those school days well. Also Nov 63 when every room got a TV and we watched the reports of Kennedy’s death. And before that Cuban Missiles brought those exercise you noted.

    Ya know a lot of parallels to then and now. But I think just like then, we will make it.

    Even when we were in 8th grade we knew that would not help one bit and made fun of the teachers making us get under that **** thing.

    Be sure it has plenty of gum stuck under the bottom...extra radiation protection.

    Now that's funny. Brings back some gross memories about the gun stuck under the desk. Did you ever get on your back on the floor and look up under the desk? Remember the hole that was in the bottom of the desk?

    I do. All our grade school desks had gobs of gum gone to cement stuck all over the bottom. When I first realized people can be just plain nasty.

    It was a typo I know, but oddly true about our schools then and now.

    How many of us got in trouble for having playboy pics in our locker? 🤔

    Nothing was said. Nobody cared back then. I lived in a rural neighborhood where everyone had shotguns that we would shot in the back yards when not out hunting birds.
