Nice reflection in @bostonglobe.com on Veteran's Day, through the lens of Bourne Cemetery, which happens to be where my grandfather Ed is buried.

Death by Lightning has so many great, quotable lines.

"Music, Fighting, Sausages!"
"Eat shit, I'm a taxpayer!"
"I need you to find me the sausage man"

OK most of these have to do with sausages, but I stand by it, and anyways sausages are delicious.

It would be a good feedback loop between elections, too.

Because it would be wildly, demonstrably popular in a way shareholders can't ignore for long.
