A person would think that just sitting around playing on these boards that you would be pretty safe and secure.
Well I got news for ya, there is no place absolutly safe.
Yesterday evening around 6:30 I was just finishing up scaning over the boards thinking about going home,getting a bite to eat and watching a little on the tube. All of a sudden it sounded like a bomb went off. The walls shook, glass in the windows broke. the glass door to my office exploded, the cealing started comming down. My mind was racing a million miles per hour. I thought a propane tank had exploded but there was no gas on the building. The noise went on, seemingly, forever. Ripping and tearing, things falling, more glass breaking. Dust was all over as I made my way to the door. The noise had stopped as fast as it had started. I pulled open my door and right in front of me was a young man sitting in his truck, obviously shaken up pretty well. I asked if he was alright and he said he was fine. As there was smoke comming out of the hood I made him get out. We climbed over rubble piled about 5 feet high and made it out of the building. There was already a truck out front with emergency lights flashing. A volenter firemen just happened to be passing by. Well the cops and fire department came and checked things out pretty well. Gave the kid a ticket and took off.
The kid thought he was at his exit and turned while still going way to fast to make it. This happens all the time at this location, except usually they don,t end up parked in my office.
Today I am thanking God for letting me get up for a very Good Friday, and I look forward to being able to clean up the mess.
As far as the kid, I am thankful he is ok. He is leaving in a few days to go to Iraque.
