Caution: When you leave, don't expect things to be as you plan.
I left the house today, as I always do. Mac was more or less in this position. He's more or less always in this position when I come home. Only I got a call today on the way home from a neighbor that my house had been evacuated due to some outlandish event and my neighbor was checking to see if Mac was still inside. Well, yes, of course Mac was still inside. I did everything in my power to get Mac out of inside while I was on my way home. I called my coworkers, but none was available to swing by the house and have a chat with the police, while still in uniform. My neighbor put me on the phone with the police officers, but they were unable to let her through.
When I arrived home, I was still in the same position- me on the outside of a police perimeter, and Mac on the inside. The officers advised me to use caution with my life: the swat team was there for a reason. Don't go in there, it's not worth it. Well, for me, it was worth it. So I sat, and sat and sat, hoping Mac was OK. Hoping the gas wasn't getting into his window. Hoping he wasn't peeing in my house- not really caring, but hoping anyway.
After 14+ hours inside my room, Mac was freed. I did use caution, the officers used more caution, and I caution everyone to remember that every day is different. Also, to have an emergency plan. Or maybe, just to bring their dog with them everywhere. I may start doing that. OK, I already practically do that.
Mac is fine. I'm fine. A little stressed out, a little PTSD, and never wanting to leave my home again. It's bizarre to watch SWAT walk back and forth in front of your house. I don't recommend the experience. In fact, I caution against it.
manatees look "cute" at first but on second glance they look like a giant slug grew a beaver tail and arms.
another question: what do you get when you combine college students in an all-male dorm with sharpies and disregard for university property?

Those canoe race spectators are a rowdy bunch. Sort of like soccer hooligans, but worse. Exercise extreme caution in their presence!

does anyone think that a person stupid enough to dive into a rock filled beach without realising that the rocks dont just exist on dry land would have the brains to be able to COMPREHEND a sign?
Once upon a time the yanchep lagoon was devoid of all these warnings, life was simple and there were less idiots to deal with as nature took care of their simple skulls with the submerged rocks. Do the people who erect these eyesores want idiots to thrive? Are the people who decide the signs are essential the very same folk that nature would have taken care of in its own special way? I think so. We as humans have lost touch with nature - and nature will probably have its ultimate revenge at a later date - we all know how vengeful nature can be - It will bide its time and then BAM! a rock (aka meteorite) falls from the sky with absolutely no warning signs and flattens us all. WHY? because nature takes care of things and if the human race is getting stupider as time goes on nature will simply bin the lot. Nature will decide its not worth the hassle and in the blink of an eye some disaster wipes us out.
If we continue to warn stupid people that they are about to kill themselves then we only have ourselves to blame when the idiots that should be dead end up running the country pretending to save whales when really they are worried about what they look like on telvision.
These signs are visual pollution that ultimately pollutes the human gene pool with unsuitable dna.
its enough to make you WANT to smash your head against a submerged rock.
A length of bright yellow cuidado (caution) tape stretches across a sidewalk in Minneapolis, marking off an area temporarily closed to pedestrians. These barriers are a common sight during routine municipal work, building maintenance, or street-level repairs, especially in dense commercial districts where crews often work overnight. Blurred streetlights and storefront colors in the background reflect the activity of the surrounding neighborhood and the way safety markers become part of the visual landscape of city life.
