Went out a field project in a small town. Stopped and got gas. I remembered growing up in a small town a living that way till I was in my 30s. I even thought someday I’d like to find another small town to live in. What I realized was that one of the biggest divides is between small town folks and urban folks.

Was in a meeting out there and a guy made a comment how he just saw is new pay check and it was something like $20 increase for a 2 week check and we all laughed. Then shortly thereafter he starting talking about how sour pussed Pelosi was at the SOTU. All I could think is how he’d conveniently forgotten how the republicans were for Obama’s speeches. He’d forgotten that and obviously someone who gets his news from Fox. I just made a comment about all the fake applause and dropped it. I could see even he didn’t like the phony applause. He’s not a stupid guy. I hope little by little he’ll open his eyes.
