High Treason


It's official... we're Bad Americans.

We were the only people on the block without a flag out for Veteran's Day.

Even Mary had a flag out, proving you can be a miserable fuck AND patriotic.

Veteran's Day is a HUGE deal here. Parades, ceremonies, breakfasts, luncheons and other commemorations. Most other holidays pass here with little notice...

"Martin Luther who?"

"Yom Ki-what?"


The weird thing is I don't recall this big a fuss last year. Then again, I don't recall much from the first few months here.

I would chalk it up to PTSD, but I think that would be an insult to all the vets who have bravely served.

So we'll just call it "BSD".
