Of course they know us all.
All the more reason I won't be attending the parade.
I'm not a good person and I'm not worthy of the kindness and sacrifice being laid down by those who can do and give more than I can.
That doesn't mean I won't do my duty and bake every day that I can, however; this is still my country and I love it and you all dearly.
It just means you won't see me at a parade I don't deserve.
That and I can't afford to go in the first place.
Not fishing for pity here, those are just facts that I live with, recognize, and carry on from.
Have a beer for me, Anons.
Will report for duty in the morning.
