02 MAY 06

This needs a little explanation:

Security is a high priority in our world.
We have all been advised to be vigilant and more aware of our surroundings.

If, for instance, we notice an object that appears abandoned such as a briefcase or a shopping bag,
report it to local security for investigation. . . .do not open it yourself to find out whose it might be.

It might be a bomb.

These days you cannot assume unattended objects are innocuous or innocent.
We must entertain the possibility it COULD POSSIBLY be something nefarious.

I had a salad for lunch today . . . . with baby lettuces, cheese, leftover grilled tuna and tomato
(WHAT, you ask, does this have to do with possible bombs??? READ ON)

Our Fearless Clinic Leader happened upon my extraneous tomato which had, apparently, fallen from the refrigerator.

Being the ever-vigilant role model, he took the appropriate steps to warn the Clinic of the possibility we had a potential bomb threat.

I'm glad I work in an environment that can and DOES make fun of itself
=^)


THIS IS HOW THE TOMATO WAS OFFICIALLY DETAINED
