Monday

I'm retired and at age 80 I'm not too concerned about what anyone else thinks about me or what I'm wearing. I wear khaki trousers and T-shirts, sneakers or Crocs.

I went on Amazon some time ago and bought a few T-shirts all displaying slogans.

"NO HUMAN IS ILLEGAL." I have four of these, two have the slogan in English and Spanish. I get a LOT of thumbs-up, "I like your shirt" comments.

"Let justice roll down like a river and righteousness like a mighty stream" -- Amos 5:24. Get a lot of likes for this one.

"Injustice anywhere is injustice everywhere" -- MLK. LOTS of thumbs-up for this one.

"Pro-America, Anti-Trump" some people have asked where they could get one of these.

"Veteran. Not a loser or a sucker." Most folks don't understand this, but those who do love it.
