As soon as I heard that "change" was in the air for the distribution of Egg roll tickets I turned to my wife and said, 'It's a shame." They took a working system, that was fun - Yes Fun - and killed it. How cool was it to camp out in front of the white house? It's WAS a blast. Some times cold, snowy, wet, but you met fellow Americans, shared stories, and EARNED your tickets. They (our first family) opened the door to scams, scalping... and even the ticket itself is cheapened. "Progress" yelps the town crier. Since, we've been trying to get our tickets since early this morning and it's now after 5:00 in the afternoon we will give up now or buy a ticket from a "seller" later next week.... NOT! Way to go Barrack! Happy Socialism! Lost my vote 60 days ago for making a scrambled mess out of our country. Why should anyone be surprised?
