#2 Jeezus - he kicked it?

I learned over 30 years ago in Germany, at the height of the Baader-Meinhof terrorist attacks, that you NEVER pick up (or kick) a bag of any kind if you didn't put it there or know who did. And if a bag seems particularly out of place (for instance, a fire extinguisher inside a shopping bag sitting in the waiting room at the Frankfurt Airport), you tell the cops pronto.

Even to this day, I won't (can't, really), nor will I drive over a bag in the road if there's any safe way to avoid it. Won't park over one, either. Guess it's permanently ingrained, though it's a little hard to explain to people who weren't there.

Yeah, it does stay with you, doesn't it Barbara. 83 - 84, two years under the mountain, CINCENT Primary Static War HQ. I figured, being a Static War HQ, our life span was a couple of hours after the first tanks started rolling into the Fulda Gap. Of course, that was better than the 30 minutes in the Titan missile patch in Kansas.
