www.ready.gov

By way of fellow Valley blogger, Vern, I happened upon a site that created some wickedly funny captions for real pictures from a site put up by our own Dept. of Homeland Security.

These are just a couple. For the rest, visit: Homeland Security Help with Pictures!

"The US government has a new website, www.ready.gov. It’s run by the Department of Homeland Security and is supposed to provide answers to everyday questions regarding emergency situations. And they even offer pictures so there can be no confusion as to what you are supposed to do in an extreme situation.

The fun thing is that these pictures are so ambiguous they could mean anything! Here are a few interpretations.



... If you spot terrorism, blow your anti-terrorism whistle. If you are Vin Diesel, yell really loud.



If you spot a terrorist arrow, pin it against the wall with your shoulder ... "

I've seen these before - they're super funny. Did you know that right about the time they recommended everyone go out and buy a stock load of duct tape that Rummy had just invested in 3M?

Vern ... no prob. You always post good stuff. And, yeah, count me in for a get-together. I'll try and rope in my best friend Eric (and fellow valley blogger).

Laura ... Damn!! I hate the internet. Everybody sees stuff before I do.

I did remember hearing something to that effect about Rummy. Sure wouldn't surprise me with our whole fucked-up military-industrial complex.
