I have a dumb phone. Best thing ever to battle the Zombies. 😂

@Snowpuppy  I wonder if all the smart phones went off?

My husband and I have both turned into Zombies.  So far the dogs seem ok but the little one is looking a bit strange. 

Anybody else joined the living dead?

@JillyMarie  tell the little one to start filling paperwork. He has a case, a case of what, I don't know but a case. lol

I am feeling so sleepy but  now I think I was feeling that way earlier.  I have to think about it.

My phone pinged and a message on my tv for about a minute.

As a schoolkid during the Cold War,  we had random drills where we "duck and covered" under our desks.  The alarm in the town hall for enemy attacks was tested every Friday at 12:05.  And we had Emergency Broadcast tests at random times on everyone's radio.

I think the weather tests have saved a lot of lives recently, with all the anonamlous and violent weather!

I was watching the TV show about the Denver vet, I think, but the TV message was identical to the old radio message.  Gave the basic info that there IS such a test, and here is where it will show up. My smart phone did not transmit it, nor my landline.  I guess I should keep the TV on!

Yep, something to remember.

Hiding under your school desk will keep you safe. 😳

I have all of my goverment alerts turned off in my settings on my phone, along with having my phone placed on both "silent" and "do not disturb" and the test came blaring out at 2:18 PM. 

Fortunately it only lasted a few seconds.

@Zwervend you cannot turn off presidential alerts and that's what this came through as.

DH and I both had our cell phones on.  His blared away and he got a voice notification that I could hear from two rooms away.

Mine?  All I got was a text notification with the same info his phone was blaring out.  Not a sound.

@Sage04 - You've got me literally LOL!  I hope all the ill effects from the alert pass away soon but, if we don't hear from you again...
