when it comes to emergency preparedness
Jan. 9th, 2007 05:41 pmthere aint no one
who can unintentionally prepare
better than me
last night
I decided I'd put off grocery shopping long enough
so I went
this morning I decided
to fill up my gas tank
on the way to work
I get to work and find out
that we're expecting another big windstorm
[like the one we had a few weeks back]
[which knocked out power for most of the area]
[but not me (go me) for a number of days]
this afternoon
and if that isnt enough
we're supposed to get a snow dump*
[terminology is locally relative]
[in that anything over an inch is a serious snowfall]
later tonight
that should shut down the city for a day or two
so when the power goes out
[for all those other suckers anyway]
and there aint no gas
and the snow falls
putting seattle in the deep freeze
I'll be all good
just like last time
mmm mmm
it is good to be the king
who can unintentionally prepare
better than me

That people who are likely to do X are also likely to do Y does in no way imply that if you do X you will be more likely to do Y.
Fifty percent of the people who engage in unprotected sex for long periods will get pregnant. However, no matter how much unprotected sex I have, I will not get pregnant.
