these days

as i travel around the city and see "kerry for president" placards and bumper stickers still affixed in place, i wonder if this is a larger phenomenon, signs of quiet protest. i want to start counting "kerrys" and taking notice in other cities. surely we as a progressive nation haven't completely given up in these dark and ignorant times.

the other day i told a friend (we were talking about the new testament) "if these are the last days, i hope they don't hurt too much."
