Sign me up for a new pair of pants.
Just stepped out of my office for a bite of lunch. Walking in front of the St. Louis Courthouse in Clayton when a bus backfired BIG-TIME about 15 yards away. Bright sunny day and all these people ducking for cover, staring, point, dust billowing from under the bus, everyone unsure what was going on. It was actually just a backfire and no harm was done. Just another, more immediate, impression of what a horrifying situation we have here.
