3. Your last remark just reminded me of a response I got to something
else I like to do. When I'm out driving and I see somebody whose bumper stickers I like, I try to make eye contact with them within reason, of course, for safety on the road. Then I give 'em a big thumbs-up or smile or I shout "I LIKE YOUR BUMPER STICKERS!" out my window at them. I saw a little old man driving one of those, with several Kerry/Edwards-type stickers, and hollered out my appreciation to him when we both pulled up abreast of each other at the same stop light. He hollered back to me - that "a lot of these stickers are staying on. Not many of the other folks are leaving their stickers on. They're trying to take 'em off. We leave ours on there!"

I was so proud of him! There's a LOT of solidarity out there. And this little old guy was quite correct, once I started to take notice. I don't see nearly as many "w04" or "bush/cheney" stickers as I used to. And funny enough, I didn't see many of 'em before the election last November. So odd it was that - after bush "took" the last election, suddenly these chickenshits felt cocky enough to put a bush-cheney sticker on their back bumpers. A nice, brave bunch they are, 'eh? Didn't have it in 'em to do so BEFORE the election. But then again, I'm from Southern California - which is WAY blue.
