Bear with me, I was reading about the latest travesty on reason...
http://reason.com/blog/show/126284.html#
You know... no knock raid, wrong house, innocent man shot, etc.. the usual
When I came upon this comment regarding pitching in for a legal fund:
"ChrisV | May 7, 2008, 11:07am | #
In fact, I'd put up $300. This isn't even my country, but Januray 7 is my birthday and this shit does not go down on my birthday without consequences."
I found it incredibly touching that whereas most of us consider our birthdays as our day to be self-indulgent, this poster takes the polar opposite stance.
We could all learn a little something from this guy. Imagine if we all stood up and said, "xx-yy is my birthday and this shit does not go down on my birthday!"
Got a birthday on Dec 7th? Maybe give out some books on Pearl Harbor. Maybe rail against tyrannical legislation that was introduced on your birthday.
I'll start.
My name is Jeremy. May 21st is my birthday and this shit does not go down on my birthday!
