emergency preparedness


We had the best training class today at work. It was on emergency preparedness. It was a training designed for people with developmental disabilities but my boss sent me to scout it out before we signed up our participants for it. It was put on through a federal grant, apparently given to groups like this one after Katrina.

Besides the useful information, they also handed out gifts to everyone. Everyone who showed up received a hand crank radio/flashlight/adapter for a cigarette lighter (to car-charge your cell phone). It was like being on Oprah!

Dude, Oprah gives out way better gifts than that! Although that is pretty damn slick.
