Thats right!!! If FEMA is coming to your town for "exercises" of some sort, you better be getting out.

Yeah FEMA and the National Guard. There's trucks with men in the back everywhere. Normally, this would be a nice thing. :) But these days it's just a reminder of our pitiful state of affairs.

Thats right, you're in the thick of things. Tell me, did you happen to see any buildings "pancake", or any evidence of a collapsed building?

According to the news, buildings were pancaking, I'd love a shot of what something like this actually looks like.

Well I'm not in an area where buildings would be collapsing, so I can't really comment on that. I haven't seen anything like that on the news though...
