Go, granny, go


One of my biggest pet peeves is folks who show up at protests and have no reason for being there. Exhibit A: this photo from the Rocky Mountain News website of folks protesting a fee for skiers using Interstate 70. Pay special attention to grandma on the right with the "Tolls are for Trolls" sign. Listen up, CDOT, nobody, I mean nobody, is going to make Grandma pay extra for "shredding it" on the slopes. Go home,granny, bake us some cookies or knit us a quilt! At least the dork next to you, dressed up as spelunker, appears to have some reason for being there.
