Someone is tryng to tell me something? ~
Well, tonight was interesting.
The valley Charleston is in, and the valley I live in, is filled with a variety of chemical factories; the kind that spew death. A home for The Wyrm, for those of you into White Wolf. They have been the main source of jobs in the region, next to coal mines, for decades. When I was in school, back in the late 70's, the big fear was the Russkies were gonna bomb them and start the End Times. We even had a plan in our High School in case that ever happened.
Last night, at 11pm, many people though just that. One of the factories blew up in a spectacular fashion, creating a haze of death all across the valley. I've been told it looked like the start of WWIII. A Shelter-In-Place hit the airwaves, and the State Police blocked off all streets to the west of Charleston, just to prevent anyone from driving into the Cloud of Doom -- like there was anyone gonna do that.
A wave of people had to come and check-in to the hotel because they couldn't go any further than our fair capitol city, and complained to me about it. Like I was the one who blew the damn place up!! Funny thing is, it happened at the factory that I may be working at come October. Hmmmm -- possibly not anymore! Ha! At least now they'll be uber-safety conscious about accidents there. Then again, they have to rebuild the place to hire anyone now.
Problem is, I have to pass thru there to get to MX2's house in the AM and pick up the Princess to take her to school -- which is across the river from the exploding factory. I wonder if I'll make it, or if the'll even have school there tomorrow?
