Sometimes I read letters to Dear Abby
and think, "Who the hell are these people? Do they even live on earth?
Are they just the simple, bumpkin byproduct of a good still gone bad?"
Take
this Q and A, for instance -- a 30-year-old law enforcement veteran
(I'm guessing parking ticket veteran) urged parents to keep their kids
away from the latest in damaging products -- a fad so dangerous, so
insidious that parents will put their kids at risk by even thinking
about wearing it: camouflage. I kid you not. Someone is concerned that kids will get "lost" if they wear camo.
OK,
I get it. If you're going camping, it's probably not a good idea. For
some reason, camoflage seems to work well in the woods -- almost as if
it's been designed to. But in the city? In the suburbs? At the mall? Please. Nothing says cute like camo shorts and knee highs.
