Our own little Acorn story….The Boy and some friends went to a show
last week in Cleveland Heights (Nuclear Free Zone don’tcha know). When
he stepped outside for a smoke he saw three people with clipboards.
Knowing full well what was going on, he approached them and asked what
was up with the clipboards (he can play soooo innocent when he wants
to). They explained they were registering people to vote, was he
registered? “Since the day I turned 18″. “Oh, good”. “And you’re voting
for Obama.” Statement not question. “Hell, NO.” “Oh, (pause), you’re
voting for one of the third party candidates.” Statement again. “No”.
And then came the question “Well then, who are you voting for?”
(Completely mystified.) “Umm….John McCain”. “Oh”. Apparently, a
civilized polite conversation ensued. But I can’t help wondering if
registering folks to vote at 10 p.m. in front of a bar….oh…nevermind.
(Good job Boy!)
