C bothers me more than anything, people remind me of cats which are the most dependent independent creatures i have ever been around.

Some people believe cats love them when they rub against them and purr, but if they would take notice the cats will do the same thing to a dam fence post.

A stray cat turns up on your door step, you feed it a few times and then forget to feed it for awhile you are liable to be clawed because you did not feed it soon enough.

And that is the way with people.

And on another subject, yes i hate to think it is true but the republicans or conservatives are just as bad as the democrats liberals, the difference being they still claim to believe in the constitution, but they only believe in your freedoms that they approve of.

Did you or anyone on here see an old “Twilight Zone” episode where this doctor had been making a bunker under his house for awhile in case of a bomb hit? His neighbors were over at his house for his birthday, and they were having a great time until his young son told all of them that was something on the radio/t.v. to warn them all that there was a bomb threat.

They all headed home to their homes all in a panic. The doctor and his wife and son got some water and food that they would need and went down to their bunker. Well the neighbors were all in a panic, because they had no “bug out” shelter or bomb shelter and he had told them they might need one!

So where did they head to? The doctor’s house, of course! They banged on the door and pleaded w/him to let them in. He wouldn’t, because there was barely enough food and supplies/space for his own family, let alone others. More and more neighbors all in a panic showed up, banging on the door and threatening him. They started fighting with each other and threatening him and his family. They had gotten something to ram down his door.

Then, they got a report from an emergency radio that the “bomb attack” had been called off! There was to be no attack, so they could go back to normal life! Of course, they had to apologize to the doctor/family. One guy had made some threats and knocked a Hispanic man down. He had to make apologies to him, saying he didn’t mean it. The doctor said he had a chance to see what they all would be like in an emergency, and it troubled him to see what they would’ve done if they emergency had been real!

He was even more upset with the way they had all behaved like crazed animals that was worse than the bomb! Rod Sperling (sp?) had some interesting remarks after the episode too! If you haven’t seen it and it comes up again on “METV”, watch it, it’s good, and illuminating! I can’t remember the title, though, (shoot)!
