At 8:07a.m. I received an alert that we were to seek shelter because of an incoming missle.
First thing I did was call my wife and tell her I love her, and then my folks.
People were driving fast to get home to their loved ones, people running out of their homes embracing one another...you can imagine the scene.
38 minutes later we got notice that we were Not under attack, that it was a false alarm.
A very soberig moment over here for all of us.
Best to you All !

You wouldn't know it if you turned on the news.
Every channel I checked is speculating and anallizing and going on like the whole country's under a nuclear attack.
I make fun of the campfire's tin foil brigade but I'm telling you right now, they ain't got chit on the MSM.
Course....I'm sure they'll be along shortly to try and prove me wrong.

Nothing like an early morning shot of reality So true. Something like that lets a guy know (if there's any confusion) how he really feels about things.

Hmmm, looks like early warning did its job, now someone is trying to save face http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...es-ballistic-missile-threat-warning.html

It was 37 minutes of knowing we were about to be turned to glass dust... there is no place to hide here. I fully believed, as did the rest of the inhabitants, this was our appointed time. I wasn't afraid to die, but I felt the need to make amends where it was needed, and to reafirm my loved ones of my love of them.
Never a bad time to do that, folks.

I feel sorry for all the husbands who confessed to various sins thinking they were going to die in less than an hour.

What ever happened to Reagan's vision of a "Star Wars Defense System.?" What makes you think we don’t have it? We just sent up another classified satellite recently. Reagans’ Star Wars program won the Cold War.

Do you think Kim Jung Un was crapping himself when this alert went out - He should have been.

Time to get a cup of coffee and go outside. Thanks to the Keurig you probably have time.
The older I become the more I am convinced that the voice of honor in a man's heart is the voice of GOD.
