10. I had to take my 10 year old car to the dealer for service
Edited on Wed Nov-08-06 10:13 PM by tblue
This was an Infiniti dealership, and the clientele are very, well, let's say upper middle class. I noticed there were 4 or5 men in their suits in the waiting room with me, their faces all pink and mopey, deep in dreary thought. Not one of them was reading the morning paper, which sat there on the coffee table with blazing headlines about Dems taking back the House. Well, actually one of them did pick up the paper — the Arts & Entertainment section. I had to laugh. I picked up the front page and turned it so the headlines were right in their line of sight. For once! For once, it is OUR DAY!

Good for you and good for your son! He's on his way to being an informed and connected American citizen — the very best kind. Gives me hope for the future.

I'll tell you one more thing. I was an Election Officer yesterday, and I noticed that every single young person who came in to vote was a Democrat! And this was in a very, very wealthy area!
