I live in Cecil County, Md. If I was to ride my bike out of my garage within a 5 mile radius of my house I can find at least 5 homes that have confederate flags on on their front steps. I'm all for a persons right to express themselves, but folks it's the year 2008. It's time to move on.
But I digress, in my county, which is really is a pretty nice place to live, I accept that if a few of my neighbors still fly old Dixie, that getting curbside recycling is going to be almost impossible.
Yeah, so me just trying to do my part, I of course recycle. This means hauling multiple containers of bottles, cans, and other recyclable material up to where I work in Southern Chester County, where there are a number of recycling stations to drop my material.
I have to be honest that I'm always worried about getting pulled over after dropping off my recycling. You see the bulk of my recyclable material is beer bottles. After the drop my car smells a bit like your favorite bar after closing on Saturday night. Oh, no not the nice place you go now, but the dive you used to go to in your early twenties, you know where you showed up at midnight, and tried to see how many rounds you could squeeze in before the bar closed at 1:00. I can't remember the last time I closed a bar...
There I go digressing again. If I got pulled over, I'd get drug down town pretty fast. "have you been drinking son?" the officer would say. "No, sir" I'd reply, "then why do you smell like a brewery boy? Out of the car long hair, your goose is cooked!"
and seriously, stone sober I can't say the alphabet backwards. I'd be totally fucked.
been missing Rotten Rob and liz , who have been a world travelers of late. Saw some guy at the climbing gym Monday night with a scruffy beard, shaggy hair, and a mandana, and I had to do a double take to make sure it wasn't Rotten. 
I was meandering around Middle Run , and saw a bunch of folks I hadn't seen in a while, including Ted Logic. I came upon the FU in FUn ride, and lo and behold who's sitting 2nd wheel That's right good ole rotten!

yup, someone walking their goat. I'd like to say this was in Cecil County, but alas it was not.
Meandering on the bike went well , although I couldn't hang on the FU in Fun ride. I heart my bike.
Tonight is half priced nacho night!
respect.

So you would prefer to see a Mexican flag instead?
Yeah dude, you can stand there and make fun of your neighbors with confederate flags, but you'll never get their goat.
Thanks for the advice re: rest. I'm workin' on it.
I'd already planned on getting a leash just like that for the sprout.
...now I'm also getting it a furry hat with horns.
i taught 4th grade in western north carolina for 5 years (near asheville). they are still fighting the war in that county. once i had a parent come in and give a speach on the civil war. he was supposedly an expert on the subject and a well rounded individual so i let him into the classroom. he proceeded to tell my class how the yankees were cheaters and didn't deserve the victory. apparently the union (according to this guy) waived white flags during battle to simulate a surrender. when the confederates went to capture the soldiers, the union opened fire. i guess this happend on more than one occassion. it pissed this guy off so much he still can't move on 130 years later.
this doesn't even touch base on the belief they have when a yankee "steals" a good 'ol southern boys job.
