Thanks for serving buddy, have some Cheese Balls
Tuesday, November 11th, 2008
Some students here at the law school who were previously in the military are hosting a Veteran’s Day ceremony this afternoon. I guess since Mercer doesn’t care enough about veterans to give us the day off, its good that the students have stepped up.
The AV guy is out this morning so I’m charged with getting the podium sound working. I walked down a few minutes ago to scope out the setup when I noticed that the guy in charge was already setting up the refreshments table. Right in the middle is one of those huge five gallon containers of cheese balls. Yes, the kind that the day care gives my two year old after she takes a good nap. The kind that never taste quite right.
Usually Mercer takes better care of their students and alumni (especially those who have served). The speaker is actually a prominent member of the judiciary, which makes it even more odd that we are serving cheese balls. I know that a lot of the liberals here consider the commander-in-chief to be a cheese ball, but isn’t this taking it a little far?
So for all of you out there who have made sacrifices and served this nation, thanks — and have some cheese balls!
