Hmph. Pavlov's dog. You know the experiment? Ring a bell every time you feed a dog and before long the dog will start salivating at the ringing of the bell.
Humans are definitely above such petty responses to stimuli. We'd never jump at a moment's notice to whip each other into a hysteria.
What is it about THIS hurricane? About THIS day that is making people freak out? Once upon a time oil companies would raise the cost of gas depending on what OPEC did because of supply and demand. Its all really complicated - something about the cost of crude and production yaddayaddayadda.
Oh, sorry, I was salivating. Or to be more precise - filling my tank with $5/a gallon gasoline because a storm hasn't even hit the state of Texas yet.
I wish you well this weekend. I hope that when the craziness is over you and I will both be able to agree - Jesus is Lord and he's coming back. There are more important things to blame for our hysteria. Like creating a blackhole on earth?
Of course, things really could be as bad as they say. In which case, I'd just look like a big jerk. I hope God is with those in the path of the storm. But you people in Alabama need to chill out. Go enjoy the technological and scientific excitement of a massive particle collider as they prove our God exists. Err....something like that. Did you just start salivating?

Amen to all of that!
ReplyDeleteI filled up simply because it is Friday and Friday's are fill up day in our household!
It is unreal but again, I will feel like a complete moron for even saying that if something tragic does happen....
