This brings whole new meaning to "Duck and Cover."

Starting next month, children in grades 4 though 8 and employers nationwide will be asked to help get families and companies better prepared to respond to a crisis. (Related story: Administration says attack averted)

In schools, on the Internet and in TV and radio ads, youngsters will be introduced to a new Homeland Security mascot: a dog (an American shepherd) that will be named in a contest. The campaign, using the dog and a set of Ad Council advertisements, will encourage families to develop an emergency plan and talk about where kids should go, who will pick them up and how they will make contact.

The Dog may already exist. A few decades ago, somebody, maybe Carlin did a party record about escape from the dog pound. One of the inmates introduced a newly incarcerated canine to one of the inmates " this is Detroit Abdul Kalkan." DAK " Heyyy! What it is?"
It's American. It"s Multicultural, It celebrates Capitalism.
