Well nonetheless, goodatcha bud.

(I was a few hundred yards east of the earthquake
induced collapse of the freeway back in 1998, out here
on the West Coast.)

I had to hoof it by foot to my appointment from where
I got a ride back into my neighborhood to find my
whole apartment building out on the street watching
(via a portable TV) the news of the Bay Bridge
collapse (just a single section came loose it turns
out.)  

Seeing as how I may have been on the bridge (but that
day took the train (BART) they all thought I was out
in the Bay taking a swim, when here I come up the
street to a Hero's welcome. (What did _I_ do?) 

Bottom line, people are more interested in your
continued respiration than you might think, keep doing
it.
