Back in March of 2003, I had just flown home to Detroit from a ski trip in British Columbia. It was late at night and while waiting at the baggage claim I struck up a conversation with a young gal who was from Vancouver and was returning to school at Ohio State.
Since I was dead tired, she did all the talking. She then proceeded to tell me that her parents were from the Detroit area and that they took off for Canada when her dad received his Vietnam draft notice and they stayed there to this day.
I couldn't believe what I was hearing, she was talking as if she was proud of what her draft dodging hippie dad had done..........
It wasn't until I got in my car for the long drive home that the anger I felt set in. To this day it infuriates me that I didn't have the ability to tell that dumbass chick what I felt......
She and her father need to be punched in the throat.
