Labors

http://thefederalist.com/2015/08/03/pro-lifers-are-todays-abolitionists/

I pulled this because I was immediately reminded of one of my favorite movies..."Amazing Grace."  That film -- which discusses William Wilberforce and his attempts to end slavery -- could be used as a way to, I think, steer people in the proper direction.  And, let's face it...abolition wasn't exactly popular back in the day, either, but nowadays people think it would be crazy (if not appalling) to enslave people.  Well, most of them would.

OC duty today -- 123 people, steady busy...I didn't spend a lot of time up front, but the one thing we mentioned was that with the arrival of school supplies, people were more than their usual shining, happy, honest selves...kids were being invented left and right, it was most impressive.  We had about 250 sets to give out, and I think about 90 are left, as well as some loose items that need to be bagged....at least we managed to handle much of the produce.

Also of note...my Mom and sister went to the casino, so I went to the gym for an arms day...in retrospect, it was not the wisest of ideas, given the fact that I spent most of the AM hauling crap every which way, but it wasn't that crowded, and I did a full workout (some things I cut a little short), so all in all, it was not the worst idea..
