If you see something say something is a good idea. It is about civic duty and a mindset. Sometimes it evokes humor.

Pre-9/11 NYPD used to receive reports of an unattended suitcase v/o the UN. It turned out to be part of a statue. 100+ calls later we figured it out.

Getting past laughing and especially being laughed at should be part of HLS. Call, call, call we’ll (the authorities) will do something and we might laugh when we get there. Actually, laughing at the humorous and observing the obscure we’re some of the best times of my career.

A compilation of when you see something –say something funnies and obscurities would make a great coffee table book.

But (it would seem that there is always a but). This is not an invitation to say something when you’re bored or curious about an obscurity.
Mindful of the wasted man-hours and resources that respond to needless false alarms, prudent citizens should use common sense –just the same common sense in the Panian sense is not so clear anymore.

Okay we’ll revert to a preference for laughing.
