I was talking to Dan last week and made the horrible mistake of asking if he ever has to go off base. Big mistake. Huge. It turns out that, yes, he will have to go off base to follow up on some of the cases he's handling. He immediately launched into an explanation of how it's so much safer to be driving around now than it was a few years ago. To quote my husband, "During the Gulf War they just had Hummers and those things got absolutely annihilated. Now we basically have mini-tanks (AKA - MRAPs - Mine Resistant Ambush Protected vehicles) that are practically indestructible." Cue me telling Dan I had just about all the information I needed, thank you very much. Please do not ever, ever, ever tell me if you have to go off base. I am sincerely enjoying my bubble of obliviousness!
