I find cars with many bumper stickers interesting and try to check out as many as I can. I'm usually behind them in traffic so there isn't much time. In any case, I've acquired enough photos now to start a new collection which I hope you'll enjoy.
Please note that I'm not encouraging comments about the political or religious content of the stickers. That could quickly get into nasty arguments and I don't need that aggravation. We live in a country where people can put this stuff on the back of their cars. Let's simply revel in that.
Finally, I've loaded larger-than-usual versions of the pictures so that you can give these works of art the detailed inspection that they deserve.

Here's the package of goodies Hero Arts sent for my "green" comment. LUCKY ME! The Hero Hues Foliage Papers are so beautiful and superb quality, with a very smooth "hand" (as we would say if dealing with fabric). The four-flower set, Take Good Care Greetings, stamps beautifully, of course. And a great bonus: copies of the HA catalogs! Yay!
Thank you, Hero Arts!
So. This is a lil late. But I've been busy since 2010 started :P
Hope everyone's New Years went well! :)

At first I was just going to describe it with words, but then I thought I would draw it and take a photo in response. That should be faster.
Except, as I started to draw it, I found my mind wandering as I tried to grab all the memories of exactly how we had played the game, what set of rules we followed.
I moved a lot as a child. Some people moved more, but I moved quite a bit. 18 schools attended during K-12 time, plus getting homeschooled for a short stretch. That is a lot of playgrounds and a lot of playground games. The rules usually varied from place to place, and nothing made a new kid more of a freak than not knowing the clearly established rules that EVERYONE knew.
So really, my memories of the hopscotch rules are no doubt something of an amalgamation, but the boards everywhere I went looked the same. Nine boxes and a circle at the top.
The rules as I remember them:
Each hopper chose a marker, anything was fair game, but I preferred flat rocks (like those that work best for skipping on a pond).
When it was your turn, you would throw your marker aiming first for box 1. If the marker didn't land in the correct box, your turn ended. If it did, you began to jump. You could hop one legged on whichever foot you wanted, but you couldn't switch once you started. One foot per box, and on the side by side (4&5 and 7&8) boxes both feet were touching at once, in adjacent boxes. Your foot had to be completely within the box, not on the line. You had to skip over any boxes that had markers in them (this could be ridiculously difficult if there were too many markers spread over the board). In the circle you would carefully turn around on one leg to make your trip back. On the space prior to your marker, you would balance and bend over to retrieve your marker. Once you completed the course, you would aim the marker at box 2, and so on. If at any point you messed up your turn was over (but your marker stayed on the board if it had landed in the right box to start with.
The goal was to eventually get your marker in the top circle and complete the trip up and back. The winner was the one who did it first. Of course this was easiest if you managed to make a complete run of it on the very first turn so there were no other markers on the board.
Some places I lived did not require you to skip other markers, but ended your turn if your hopping caused another's marker to move. Some places you called out the numbers as you landed on them (and you had to skip the numbers that you skipped).
So there is my hop down memory lane for the day.

Meaninglessness. It's the current that flows through today's music, entertainment, and social media. Meaninglessness has become the banner that hangs over Western culture. Its the result of the nihilism at the end of the evolutionary road... Post your comments here: www.gty.org/Blog/B100422
