Watch out!

Last night I was watching the news and they were talking about 5 people in the Stanwood, WA area that was hit by lightning during our storm last night. 5 PEOPLE! Holy crap. Anyway, that is not what I'm focusing on here.

During the news cast, they were saying a non-profit organization is going through a Thunder & Lightning Safety Awareness excercise. The "best advice" was "to avoid getting struck by lightning, just watch out for thunderstorms".

Uh... what? OK.

Well, with that said, I guess I understand why this organization is "non-profit". They are so obvious that no one would pay them a dime.

So, in honor of what I will call "Captain Obvious Safety Awareness", I decided to add a few safety notices myself. Maybe I can get paid for all my hard work here, multiplying their effectiveness to a wide range of safety issues.

  • To avoid getting carjacked, watch out for carjackers.
  • To avoid getting getting VD, watch out for people with diseases prior to sleeping with them.
  • To avoid getting in a car accident, watch out for cars (or fast approaching telephone polls) that are about to hit you .
  • To avoid getting stuck in a hostage situation, don't walk into a building that is full of people tied up with guns to their heads by guys with ski masks on.
  • To avoid becoming dumber by the minute, don't watch Dr. Phil.
  • To avoid drowning, keep water out of your lungs.
  • To avoid falling from a tree, don't climb it.
  • To avoid getting bit by a dog, don't piss him off.
OK, I think I've given you enough advice that you can learn and live by, allowing you to stay alive for a little while longer.

Disclaimer: If, while reading any of my safety precautions above, you had an epiphone... then this is solid proof that evolution has been proven WRONG.

I wish I heard that one about VD when I was younger.

Though, I am not sure why your disclaimer says that evolution is proven wrong by receiving a guitar... wait, an epiphany just struck me - great guitar players must be gods!

Epiphone

Epiphany

Hm. Damn spellcheck. Good thing spelling isn't part of the so-called evolutionary cycle.

Damn it! Now thanks to you, I’m going to have a harder time taking hostages at my next hostage taking seminar.
