a Veteran's/Remembrance tale

[hyla_regilla]

no s#!t, there I was.... near my local pub, parking my bandwagon (a Honda CR-V) and the space was behind what I can only call a HippieMobile.... a decrepit Volvo stationwagon flying (among others) a bumpersticker saying: Draft SUV Drivers First

Tell me ... do some shops and businessness in the the USA still stop for the two minutes silence as we do in our little shop? I am always surprised and delighted at how happy the customers are to stop rushing around and remember with us, and this year I was particularly touched by the gravity of one of our staff (a young lad from Sri Lanka, who was clearly thinking of the recent troubles back home) ... I guess it is a universal feeling by which we all relate to each other.
