the last time I put a political sticker on my car. A cop gave me a ticket on a bogus traffic stop.
I got the message and took off the sticker before leaving home the next day.

I remained solidly behind G.M.'s presidential candidacy.

I chose George McGovern's name for my username because I voted wholeheartedly for him for president. Broke my heart when he lost. I consider Mr. McGovern the greatest president who never was.

Thank You for telling us your sticker story!

I wanted a shot of the pillow and he was there so he was included, as a "cat prop."

The pillow actually is a gift to my wife from her former best friend Pat. The two gals used to ride horses together, until Pat got sick and died. It is a special pillow with universal appeal.

Thanks!
