Run 4 Your Lives

Yesterday was practice for evacuating the building in the event of a disaster. Apparently we're not to run around in circles screaming, but walk quietly in 2 lines from the burning building. We then walk about 5 minutes down the street to the sports ground, where we'll start triage.

I was given a hardhat to wear, which means that I'm to be fighting the fire. I thought it meant that I was to perform the YMCA dance. This drew blank stares from all. It's not that no one knows the song or the dance - both are actually very famous. Even school kids these days know them. But it's famous as a cover by a Japanese artist. No one knows the Village People. Thus my overly energetic rendition fell on deaf eyes.
