2. While driving in Northern Indiana...
In my Prius with the following three stickers;

- John Kerry
- Bush Knew
- DemocraticUnderground.com

we were passed by a rustied wood-panel-sided station wagon with three nearly toothless men in it. They passed us in the breakdown lane (shoulder) and shouted obscenities at us. They narrowly missed a hazard sign in the shoulder when my giving them the finger seemed to distract them from their driving...

3. i was surrounded by 2 drunken knuckle draggers
at a gas station with blood in thier bleary eyes,
whipped out my cell phone (which was dead) then said " I'm calling an ambulance " this could mean for them or me ,but the trusty sticker mobile started as they stood there confused. i don't want to beat the shit out of 2 drunk jerks,give me Ashcroft or some scum like that. No chance though a real neo con doen't know about gas pumps or any mundane commoner tasks.

4. I've been honking and giving the "thumbs-up" (non-Lynndie) when
I see a vehicle with a Kerry sticker.

People usually look at me weirdly (more than usual, I must say) until I pass them and they see the Kerry sticker on my car. I've gotten a few thumbs-up (non-Lynndie) myself in return.

I saw a thing of beauty a few weeks ago, marred by one terrible scar.

A 1962 maroon Corvette with a Bush sticker on it. What a way to ruin a beautiful sight . . .
