I got an email last night from my old college mate and recent travel companion Pete Frenzy to let me know that St Louis is now only the second most dangerous city in the U.S.A. I know it's been a couple of months now, but I don't remember any adverts declaring their number one status while I was there. What's more, I hope there's no connection between my leaving and it becoming a safer city to live in.
He also sent me a video clip from our trip to the Titan Missile Museum in Arizona and reminded me of the most unbelievable question I've ever heard. Unfortunately, it's too large to share on here but basically, the guide was showing us the jet propulsion system of a Titan Nuclear Missile and explaining the various safety precautions, including a remote controlled butterfly valve to turn the fuel supply on and off. Much to our amusement at this point, someone asked "So these were manned flights?"
Now that would be a really lousy job...
