Was checking out at Home Depot awhile back and they asked me if I qualified for a veteran's discount. I told them I protested the Vietnam war in D.C., does that count? Meeting silence, I continued: "Why should guys who fought that idiotic war get rewarded instead of those of us who tied to stop it?" I don't know if I made anyone think that day, but I was always glad I said it.

Another gem. You have such a succinct way of calling things as they are. These topics are avoided or traversed as though they are so complicated with many variables but you just cut straight to the heart of the matter - Thanks Caitlin.
