Wow it's been forever since my last visit to SG. I've been super busy and was in Lost Wages for three days.
I didn't loose too much money and punk rock bowling was cool. maybe next year i'll remember more of it.
today at school i was going over some of the finer points of James Baldwin's "The Rock Pile" and the heater came on. As it did, so did the overwhelming smell of gas. I got all serious and asked the kids if they smelled gas. A few said yes so I went for another, deeper smell...yep gas. I told the kids to get their stuff together and I called the office to alert them. We (the kids and I) then went to the library. They were great!
I have always wondered how that kind of thing would go in "real life". In drills everyone treats it like a joke and more of a social event, however when it was go time the kids were awesome. Good times.

Good story... sounds like you kept your cool. (No pun intended.)
