October 10, 2014 DISH Satellite and Bomb Threats

Area schools have been hit recently with a rash of bomb threats.  These threats are usually not phone calls, but written on a bathroom wall.

Of course the threats have to be taken seriously.  

The high school here in Greenwood went on "lock down" for the third time this school year.  Normally Brady goes to Univ of Arkansas at Ft. Smith in the afternoon, but because of the threat missed the bus.  Eventually the lock down ended and he came home.  

Tanner wasn't involved because he is in the "junior high" building.  Trisha says usually the student is "caught", but that doesn't prevent someone else from doing it. 

Evidently students doing such threatening do not take the consequences seriously.

We went to Trisha/Jeff's home this afternoon to meet the DISH satellite tech.  Some wires needed to be changed/moved.  Because Brady was home early, we kept him company.

Eventually Jeff came in from a flying charter; and Trisha and Tanner came home at their regular time.  

We are parked with a view of the high school football stadium.  The start of the game was delayed for two hours because of lightning in the area.  Rain totals for the afternoon/evening is 1.75" with rain still falling.
