Supporting the Troops

March 17, 2006

The Onion: I support the troops from the bottom of my heart. But my question is, do they know that? What if I’m somehow sending them the wrong message? The other day I lost the magnetic yellow ribbon from my car, and I didn’t even notice until my neighbor pointed it out. Just think: It could have fallen off days or even weeks before! And there I was: driving up and down all over town just as happy as you please, all but announcing, “Jane Merrick doesn’t support our troops!” I went to the gas station to buy another magnet right away, but they were sold out. So here I am without one. And the way everybody is around here, they’ll talk. What if this gets back to the troops somehow? MORE (Thanks to Arthur Oczko for the link.)
