A nice interaction : Someone liked my bumper stickers!
I was in line at a drive through fast food restaurant today. I saw three men pass behind the back of my car to go into the restaurant. One stopped to read my bumper stickers and called the other two back to read them. They all had huge grins on their face. The first guy walked by my window and pointed to the back of my car and gave me a thumbs up!

I have five stickers on my car and they range from the DU sticker to "George Bush Thinks You're Stupid".

There have been so many bad interactions lately that I wanted to mention a positive one. We all need to keep our spirits up.

1. That's great!
I have five stickers on the back of my car. They are all about religious tolerance. I've had people gesture and give me the finger, but no real positive experiences to share yet. I still have my hopes though.

3. Glad to hear it.
Last week, I was leaving my grocery store parking lot, and a lady waved me down to tell me she loved my bumper stickers. They say, "Pro America / Anti Bush", and "If you're not OUTRAGED, you're not paying attention."

I thanked her and told her I thought I was the only one up here (North Georgia) that thought that way. She said, "Oh, you're not alone, there are more of us. We're just all in the closet right now."

That interaction gave me a lot of hope, and made my month. It's good to hear that other people have had similiar interactions.
