Tornado Drill 6/17/2009 6:41:59 PM
... the City throws us a party, and it turns into a disaster. LOL ... . June 24, 2009.
Tornado warnings are issued for Johnson County, Texas, specifically the city of Burleson.
Victims - er, volunteers - are needed to participate in a full scale tornado drill; 45 agencies will be responding to a tornado hitting the high school and an undeveloped neighborhood; the State is testing the effectiveness of our fire, EMS and police departments, and seeing how fast hospitals will "treat" those "injured."
So: why not? Karen and I have volunteered to play the role of victims.
As long as we're not dead bodies, we're game.
Drinks and snacks will be provided. Only thing we need to bring is sunscreen and ourselves.
Two days before our 50th birthday, the City throws us a party, and it turns into a disaster. LOL
This is the only way I EVer want to see a tornado hit our town. Pretend.
Have seen it once: January 17, 1996. 9:45 at night. There went my roof, into the maelstrom. A rude way to be awakened.
Hope never to see it again.
Will let you know if we lived or died. =]
May be on TV, too. Channel 11 is already advertising the event.
