And now a story about a nuclear device...
So on Friday night there was an unconfirmed report that there was a nuclear device somewhere on 34th street in Manhattan. I saw this report on the Channel Eleven News while having ice cream in New Jersey. (Why I was having ice cream in New Jersey is a story that is so convoluted I can't begin to get into right now) Anyhoo, we saw this report, made a couple jokes about it, and then hopped in the car and headed back to NYC. Needless to say, the nuclear device never went off, and we are all 100% intact.
The point of this undetonated nuclear device story is that we clearly have all become so desensitized to terror warnings that I got in a car and headed directly into NYC despite the chance that it wouldn't be there when I arrived. And it's just that kind of crazy, in-your-face bravado that makes us better than them, ain't it?
Take that terrorists!
