…free hostages.
I saw this headline on a news website the other day, Saudi commandos free hostages. I clicked my hand off trying to find where I can acquire some free hostages of my own. Hell, I’d even take some Saudi commandos if they were free. This reminds me of these bumper stickers hippies (I mean pseudo hippies) used to put on there gas guzzling SUV’s back in the 90’s… well, some of them probably do it still. Free Tibet… sounds great. I’d love some. I could really go for some Free Turkey personally or Free Money for that matter, but sure, Tibet, hairbrush, whichever. I mean if it’s free, why not. I’ll take it.
What ever happened to all those Free Tibet bumper stickers? Do we not see them as much anymore because Tibet was finally freed and I just missed the news flash? Or did they just give up? That’s understandable, I mean, it’s a tough fight, putting a sticker on your car… I could see how people would get tired out. Maybe you need to take it off to put on a really witty anti-Bush bumper sticker. Or maybe, and believe me, this is a stretch, it was only a fad to begin with, no one really ever had conviction in the matter, and after the fad wore out, they just took the bumper stickers off. No no no… never mind, that’s just silly.

I remember seeing those bumper stickers as flyers back on BSU campus when we were there for BPA... SWP over TEW HKD?
A scene from Family Guy:
Peter walks into a demonstration. "Free Tibet? I'll take it." He runs to a phone. "Hello, China? I think I may have something you want.....That's right. All the tea."
LOL... well, what can I say. Still... it lacked the commentary on the dissapearance of said bumper stickers.
you know what would make Free Tibet back in stile...I do :) Rubber wrist bands like the live strong yellow writst bands, They could be three different colors on one band, navy blue, crimson red, and mustard yellow all fading into each other...Wow that is a great idea...That will teach Mr.Hu. People don't really care if they free tibet...people care about being cool. Bumper stickers and wrist bands are cool!
I once saw a bumper sticker that said "Jimmy Carter is no longer the worst president we've ever had." THe best part is you can pick whatever president you want that fits the bill. I immediately thought of Junior. It could be a fairly old sticker and be referring to Clinton. I think it transcends fad. Or something
That's funny. I don't think it was intended to be so arbitrary, but since you have no idea how old it is it could be anyone.
