The Reason They Closed North Turkey Creek
In case you didn't get to see it, here's the reason they closed North Turkey Creek on Saturday. It was a great lesson for Jennifer in civil disobedience, as well. A cop came by and ordered us to turn around, and I said "OK", waited until he drove away, and then we continued on our way. Jennifer was somewhat confused.
"Daddy, he told us to turn back." she complained.
"It doesn't matter what he says, baby. We weren't put on this earth to do as he says. We don't have to answer to him."
"He said it isn't safe." she continued.
"He said it wasn't safe, but he was down there, wasn't he?" I countered.
"Yes."
"So, it's safe for him, but not for us. That's what he said, right?" I continued.
"That really doesn't make any sense, does it?" she puzzled.
"No, baby. It doesn't. See, police love to tell people what to do. That's why they become policemen. If you like bossing people around, you're going to love being a cop. See how excited he got when he ordered us to turn around? He lives for that. It doesn't matter what he says. You just ignore him."
"OK, daddy. I will."
I hate to think about all the mindless marching drones among us. An army of sycophants. A confederacy of dunces. Unlike the unwashed masses, Jennifer will be thinking for herself. ;)
