What Do You Do???

you're walking down the street to the local batting cage to get some practice swings in. as you're walking, you loosen up by swinging your Louisville Slugger with all your might, visualizing hitting "one" out of the park. suddenly.....a huge dog comes barreling around the corner....growling, snapping, teeth bared, foam dripping from it's mouth.....the dog runs full speed towards you and leaps up to sink it's teeth into your flesh. WHAT DO YOU DO??? there's been a string of unsolved horrific random murders in your neighborhood. that's why you're glad you were able to obtain a concealed weapon permit. now with your Beretta 92FS 9mm in its speed holster strapped securely to your shoulder, you feel confident and safe as you head to the firing range to do a little practice shooting. you practiced in front of a mirror earlier, pretending you were your favorite movie cop, pulling the hand gun from it's holster and flicking the safety off with lightning speed. the police say the random killings are the work of a psychopathic serial killer, and although they don't have a name, they have a pretty good gas station surveillance photo of the killer that they've showed on the news the last couple of days. suddenly, the killer leaps over a wall about 10 yards in front of you. he starts rapidly walking straight towards you with hatred in his eyes and a large hunting knife in his hand. WHAT DO YOU DO??? you're the greatest super power country on the planet, your military might and technology are unmatched by any other country. you can hit the fly on a mud wall in the middle east from the middle of the ocean half a world away. you have advanced, laser guided weapons that can be remotely operated and fired from anywhere in the world TO anywhere in the world.....you have available to you the most sophisticated war heads rivaled by no other. now some little pip-squeak Napoleon sized dictator.....rogue country leader with a funny haircut and a funnier name has threatened you, saying he will attack you with his dime store missiles if you look at him cross-eyed. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20090622/ap_on_go_pr_wh/us_us_nkorea WHAT DO YOU DO???

For a starter, I wouldn't be walking to a batting cage. Come on, now. That would mean EXERCISE. I would, however, be walking to the chocolate shop. When the dog comes at me, I'd offer him half my Mars Bar. Okay ... ALL my Mars Bar, if he wanted to get really technical. While he was busy with that, I'd run like the hammers - even though that would probably constitute exercise, even at the speed I'd be doing it. (At least I'd be justified in buying another Mars Bar ...)

I'd probably steer clear of the Action Channel for a little while and focus on National Geographic instead until my head cleared. It'd be nice to see the nature and stuff again before it's all disintegrated under a mushroom cloud too. North Korea don't concern me to be honest, it's how deep their China ties may or may not run that bother me.

yeah....I agree with you on all accounts James. I'd much rather watch pot bellied pigs on The National Geographic Channel than Pol Pot on The Military Channel. I'd rather watch cooking Korean on The Food Network than COOKING Korea on CNN. and I agree that China is the unknown, and might I add scary equation in the whole mess.
