Homeland Security is readying a plan to text, e-mail and call your cell during an emergency.
OK, but only if it’s accompanied by that horn/screech that interrupts our time with Regis & Kelly every Wednesday.
“We find that the new digital system is more secure, it’s faster and it enables us to reach a wide array of citizens and alert them to pending disasters,” Homeland Security Department spokesman Aaron Walker said.
The plan, still in beta, should be in operation by the end of next year. So, please, no national emergencies till then, eh?
What’s the over/under on when they’ll send a message by mistake and scare the beejesus out of everyone?
