Various - Happy 85th Sophia Loren! Self Protection in an Active Shooter Event Must Read

Sophia Loren - you don't look a day over 55!  Well done despite being a widow for the past 12 years.  Or … thought - maybe that's the reason you still look so carefree!?  I am referring to the long relationship between Sophia and Carlo Ponti.  "Long" is not misused here.  They met when she was 16 and he was 37.  He died in 2007 of pulmonary disease.

If all Italian women were Sophia Tough, they will soon run the world.  Go get'em, Sophia!

As there seems to be (thankfully) a current disinclination for nut cases to shoot up many of the population, let me caution you - this lull is sure to be short-lived.  Be prepared.  Toward your safety, I heartily recommend this Website - www.ready.gov./active-shooter.  It covers a lot of practical advice that might just help you out in a bad situation.  Since I am a practical person with an ever-active  amygdala or "snake brain" I am at more or less at defcon 2 at anytime I am out in a likely (and some unlikely) places.   Restaurants, supermarkets, outdoor concerts and you can think of a lot more.  If you always take or to try to take the Mafia Seat at the rear of a restaurant, in a corner, you know what I'm talking about and, moreover, you are already on the way to active shooter evasion.

Unlikely as it may seem, we are all at risk.  Be prepared.
