I wouldn't throw stones that large. We'll be in the same boat ourselves before too long if the greatest contribution John Q is willing to make is a magnetic sticker purchase.
That's a pretty large stone in it'self. I see a lot of people poke fun at the sticker people. This is just my observation, and yes it is with some predjudice I'll warn you up front.
When my son was wounded in February, I made this observation.
The total strangers that would come to the hospital to visit him, had those stickers on their cars.
The people that brought him gifts had those stickers on their cars.
The little old ladies that brought hand made quilts , yes many of them had those stickers on their cars.
If you go to DFW to pick up a person coming back from the war in Iraq, or Afghanistan, the perfect strangers standing there greeting them with gifts, and thank yous will have those stickers on their cars.
People who have come to my house over the years to get address where they could send my sons care packages when they were deployed had those stickers on their cars.
I'm kind of fond of those people, at least they're doing something besides watching American Idol and shop.
