Damn straight. We'll get hit for sure with Barksdale, but I bet we'll never know it.

Did y'all ever see that Twilight zone where the man had a huge bomb shelter under his house and what he thought was a nuclear war happened. He survived in his shelter, later they showed a family standing in a park looking at a giant concrete domb and a little girl asked "is daddy in there"? The mother said yes. Turns out a bomb fell off of a plane at the local Airforce Base and blew up. In the cleanup they scraped the whole town up and covered it in concrete and lead right on top of this mans shelter.
