Not Good

Is it just me, or has the national scout jamboree not been going well this year? Leaders electrocuted, scouts dropping like flies from the heat while waiting for President Bush. It's not like the problems are the fault of poor planning. Don't put up metal framed tents under power lines. And while I do feel sorry for all those scouts from cool climates who aren't used to the heat and humidity -- if you can't stand the heat, don't sit out in a shadeless field in the hottest part of the day for hours. Be prepared encompasses know your limitations.
