We are the survivors

After driving for many many hours through this country's midwest, we pulled into Waterloo, Iowa last Sunday afternoon to try to find some lunch.  We got of the freeway and drove into the downtown area.  When the car stopped, the boys looked up from their devices, dazed.  But we herded them out the door and up to the Subway.  Which was locked.  Closed.  We tried another restaurant nearby.  Also closed. Theo then looked up and down the deserted street and then said, "It appears as if we may be the only survivors of the apocolypse."  Then he got back in the car and plugged back into his ipod, unconcerned.
