On reading his new book to children in kindergartens and first grades, Jeff says, “It’s terrifying!” * * * “Little kids like that, they’re like taking your parents out in public. They don’t — there’s no filter. They just say whatever they’re thinking. And, you know, they don’t care.”
So, “I got next” at an indoor court in Palm Harbor, when I receive an “Extreme Alert” text message at 6:55 P.M. Monday July 8. Then, an alarm is sounding through the school hallways. The text alert says, “Tornado Warning in this area til 7:15 PM EDT. Take shelter now. Check local media. -NWS Expiration: Jul 08, 2013, 7:15 PM.”
