I just got back from exercising my franchise as a member of a democratic nation. That's right, I voted. I have been waffling on wasting gas just to ignore the unopposed races (all our local elections are unopposed)
I cranked up the pickup and drove on over to Sunny side Park and let myself into the Boy Scouts meeting hall. The local retiree who never misses a fish fry, town meeting, little league game, or dog fight was standing at the door. He immediately asked for my ID and gave me the once over. Hmmm, denim overalls check, work boots check, denim jacket that has seen a lot of use check (he might be one of us), ponytail che... uh.. !!!Alarm
