oh, that was the second moment. The first came at the farm store where I'd gone to pick up a load of gypsum. It's way out on a county road. There was a half a dozen rednecks about, their trucks in the parking lot (where I pulled up in by them in my lil black truck). And the guy at the counter. And the guy who loaded up my bags for me. And everyone felt so comfy on a perfect stark-blue-skied late spring day. Easy laughter and smiles in the convos. And I was trying to picture one of them listening to Rush rant and spit, much less those Fox guys and skinny blonde gals. And I couldn't. And I was looking a lil especially ragged in my droopy jeans, my hair uncombed stuck under my cap, my glasses crooked and... they all smiled and said a word or more to me and...

they are losing, dude. even down here in the civil rights flashpoint land.

take heart?
