in one ear out the other

Is anyone else reminded of the story of the Boy who cried Wolf...with all of these terror alerts? Its getting to the point of who can tell the difference between orange and yellow? I'm doing nothing different today than I did yesterday. And as I suspect I am not the only one -- so what is the purpose of Orange Alerts? Am I supposed to be doing something different? Should I wear orange to celebrate? Should I shoot first and ask questions later? If something is gonna happen its gonna happen regardless of the color of alert. The more alerts that are called in which nothing occurs render the alert itself to be quite meaningless.
They Cry Wolf - no wolf appears. They call off the wolf hunt. Then they cry wolf again and still no wolf appears (repeat....) Then they cry wolf no one listens and then the wolf devours them in their sleep and poops them out on the front lawn. This is the way of the world. paranoia really doesnt get anyone anywhere except for really bad places...

news, politics
