My MIL was a secretary at a school in the 70s and said they would get bomb threats sometimes. However, they treated them like jokes, thanked the person for calling and then went on with the day. Years later she realized how serious things could have been.
I have been listening to the podcast “Catechism in a Year” and it has been very informative. I am a cradle Catholic and should have learned this years ago.
I was at the Air Force Academy (3rd year they accepted women in) and a senior let my friend borrow his corvette. She couldn’t drive a stick and I had one lesson on an old Cortina before I got to the academy. That was an interesting time driving through Colorado Springs – only stalled once in the middle of an intersection. Another time a freshman asked me out, he borrowed a car but he couldn’t drive the stick, so I did. And he had the nerve to say “grind a pound for me” when I didn’t get a shift quite right! That didn’t last long. My husband and I have two cars with sticks because they are fun to drive, one is a 2013 Miata – gotta have a stick for that!
