Inspired me to come up with a new term. A "brew tulpa" occurs every time a homebrewer is inspired by an absurd brewing related joke or meme in such a way that said absurd concoction actually becomes a reality. Although the term is derived from a concept in eastern mysticism, the brew tulpa is a uniquely homebrew forum associated phenomenon, usually preceeded by an overindulgence in beer resulting in an inflated self confidence. Brew tulpas are very real and usually very disgusting.
 
Right. My elementary school building was a popular design in the 50s - single story wings, central corridor with classrooms either side, all with massive exterior glazing. So the notion of crouching under a desk when "La Bomba" went off somewhere was recognized as hella stupid and we ended up in the interior hallways as shown above during drills.

Fun times...
 
My HS was located in the northern suburbs of Minneapolis (in the 80's). We were co-located with defense industry companies like Honeywell and Control Data. My civics teacher said that if the sirens went off when we were in his class we were not going to the basement, we were going to the roof to watch the show!

He was a great teacher, didn't make it long at the HS level though. Too bad. He was inspiring.
 
Dad lived in Plymouth, worked at FMC in the 80s.

I lived in Robbinsdale & south Minneapolis. I joined the navy to escape that S-hole

summers are BEAUTIFUL there. about the same as here, just outside DC... hot, humid swamp weather. I could do without the winters.

Plymouth was nice. Dad lived <1/2 mile from Medicine Lake, went sailing often.

Robbinsdale was OK.

South was the Sierra Hotel. I lived a block off Lake, a block off Cedar, was a block away from South HS.

How dare you! Minnesota is a wonderful place. I miss living there.
