My dad had three remotes for his TV.
We had a wired remote with a long-ass cord which plugged into the cable box, that my parents insisted must stay sitting on top of the TV. I never could figure out why we couldn’t have the thing sitting on the coffee table so we didn’t have to get up to change the channel.

Looks like good times up on the pass today.
I don't think most people that live in Central Oregon realizes that every mouth full of food and every drop of gasoline is trucked over 2 passes in the Cascades.
At least two passes. I-5 was shut down from North Redding to Yreka since 5:00 PM Thursday. A lot of supplies travel that corridor. It looks like the Siskiyous are also closed.

When teaching at a small public school, way out in the country, we were privileged to get instruction from a qualified State Police Instructor about what to do in case of a mass shooting event in our school.

So, when the school policy came out, the policy was to get our students beneath their desks hide (and presumably wait to get shot)

I choose the State Police instructors directions rather than the school policy. That can best be described in the meme shown below

If I heard shots, I was going to get my students out the back window and run them to the woods behind the school. The police said (and I beleive them) a running student is much harder to hit than a student cowering under an open desk. (And I knew, I could hide and protect them much better in the big woods than in a classroom.).

Best part of all, never had to worry. No mass shootings, we were in the country right. Our kids knew what to do.

I have seen the raw footage at columbine several years ago, what you describe, under the desk is just what those animals did.
 
What have I gotten myself into?
Shear Cylinder.jpg

That's the boss for scale at 6' tall. 32" O.D., 4" bolt heads, 12" ram, and 14000 pounds. It runs a shear and I am motivated by the fact that we even got it off the trailer! :LOL:
