So I wrote a letter to the local paper.
I answered the letter that was in the paper 2 weeks ago. You know the one that says Page 50 blah, blah ,blah. The viral email with all the lies. I quoted the lines he mentioned so people could read the actual wording, then explained to the best of my ability what it meant.

Yes, I read all 1017 pages of the bill. How geeky is that?

Today, I got a phone call from some guy that was trying to track me down. I thought "Oh,oh", but he just wanted to thank me for doing that. Made my day.

1. That's great!
My mother got a thank you note from someone from out of state for a brief letter she wrote. Kinda cool.

Feels nice huh?
