Just In Case

In case of emergency, pull the lever that make the train stop In a car, slam on the parking brakes; if you’re a moving pedestrian, halt and hail a cop In a 911 situation ... hold the phone During a surgical operation, should something go wrong Don’t panic! Remember: only crash dummies have plastic bones Just in case of a nuclear meltdown, if all the shelters are full ... still find a way to get underground You won’t have much time, radiation poisoning is a drag The survival clock is ticking, countdown to a body bag Just in case you missed the memo Just in case you didn’t know: don’t go getting Dumb and Dumber, and eat the fallout yellow snow

Another great one! You start out with general advice then it gets much more serious! Recently had to handle an emergency! It is a learning curve!
