  • Choppers Overhead


    There is a chopper hovering outside of the Prudential building, just sitting there on station, waiting for something or someone unknown; man that is weird.  City streets are empty of the usual hustle and bustle, honking horns, crush of people.  The only souls on the street are those like myself, to indignant to take a week off due to the convention and the conventioneers. 


    If you have ever seen a conventioneer, not one who is a 'player', just your average Joe, you will just laugh.  Festooned with buttons and slogans they are walking billboards of political angst.  Upon seeing such a sight you might say "wow, participation in the political process, that's great!"  Or you might think to yourself, "these people vote?"  The DNC is upon us.
