TEA PARTY UPDATE Yesterday I reported on my Tea Party Experience. Message 26465253 Today I went to a yard sale and saw a number of items that I was interested. The fellow there was very friendly. Our exchange went something like this: "How much for the hoses?" "Fifteen dollars for the 75 footers, ten for the 50 footers, and five for the 25 footers." "How much for your sprinklers on the tri-pods?" "Those are great for watering corn fields. I watered a corn garden 100 feet on a side with just one of them. Fifteen dollars." "How much for your flag?" (It was a Gadsen Flag, one of the yellow ones with the snake that says 'Don't Tread On Me.') "Oh, it's not for sale. Sorry." "Were you at the Tea Party yesterday?" "I SPOKE at the Tea Party." (My emphasis, not his.) "Were you the speaker right before Shelley Short?" "That's me." The rest of the exchange was about the Tea Party Movement, and how the Tea Party site was SPOTLESS after the gathering; i.e., no trash or garbage such as that littering the site where Barack Obama was inaugurated. I then paid him $30 for two of the tall sprinklers on tripods. I could walk to this fellow's house in 20 minutes. Unfortunately, he is moving.
