I decided to head out to Armand Bayou Nature Center because the Martyn Farm Harvest Festival was going on. The weather was very nice. I walked around for a while and was trying to figure out how to get some people photos of the participants. What I found is that if I struck up a conversation with somebody that after a while I could ask to take some photos and they would be agreeable. That allowed me to set up the shot rather than trying to do a street photography style. I ended up with several nice ones. These people really got my funny bone with their sign. They said they had a lot of fun with it and found out that people they would meet who had chosen to go gluten free had no idea what gluten actually was. I am not surprised. The average American is stunningly stupid unless the topic is Miley Cyrus, Kim Kardashian or Dancing with the Stars. Woe is me. These people vote.

Hopefully, you are not
an average American. You
don't want "them" to recall
your Agent's certificate.

I'd vote for Miley Cyrus. Her foreign policy credentials are impeccable.
Kim would be good as Secretary of State.
