Democracy In Action

I found this sign outside Government Center in Boston. I assume there was some kind of protest and this was left over. I've been to tons of protests, and the one thing that unites them all is that in the end people leave their signs all over the place.

Anyway, it really is Ted Kennedy's public office number. The most unusual thing about this sign is what's on the back:


At first glance it's an ordinary memo sent home with kids at school... but it's from 1975. I mean, I re-use paper, but as much of a pack-rat as I am, I don't even have school memos from recently, much less from 33 years ago!

Don't Worry, Be Sucky!

I hope Tim was flattered knowing that someone used up the special smiley-face tape for the label machine just to let him know how much he sucks.

I also hope Tim is flattered to know that his suckitude label is the very first thing I've scanned with my brand new scanner!
