My opinion, which I know you all want,, teachers should be trained in gun usage and all should be carrying....wouldn't it be nice for the school shootings to have a happier ending? How many lives could be saved....if only that principal had had a gun!

Unrequited love is close, something elusive, maybe tenderness. Thank you.
Thank you, Di.It was about a dream. Have you had dreams of searching for someone but not seeing the person's face clearly?
Exactly, Jan. We are not talking about a wild west shootout here. A well trained security guard could easily gain the advantage on the attacker. One shot to the back of the head and it's over.
All the time. Your poem describes the experience succinctly, but my dreams just end with an alarm clock... (Well, and ok, they're about a guy)

The other thing that needs to change is how we train teachers and kids to react in a dangerous situation. It's much harder to hit a moving target that is throwing stuff at you than a target that is stationary. Lock downs are not a good reaction to an active shooter scenario... just sayin'. I know that if there is a shooter in our building, we will not sit still. (But, hey, we're a pretty rowdy bunch on a good day!)
Well today just isn't going to be my day.
I go and sign up for an account to buy a savings bond and then I'm told I have to take a form to some place and get it signed in front of a certified person.
Now WTH is that all about....I mean I just gave them a whole bunch of personal info and the can't verify it!! Did they lose me or something!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a PITA, jj!!I'm just going to have SIL do it this year...he said he would and I'll get the check mailed of tomorrow so it will be done before Xmas!
The next time that I head out of town, I'll take the form with me to the court house for next year...government red tape. 8-o
