Locked up bicycle to hoop; ate dinner; returned to find a toothpicked American flag planted in my saddle. Not sure whether to count that as vandalism, or patriotism.  [photo]

    Can’t it be both?

    Seriously, the conflation of patriotism and vandalism covers a lot of what’s happening in American politics nowadays.

    And, that bike seat with all the holes in it looks tempting.

    My bike seat is solid so I was assuming that the vandal/patriot had pushed the toothpick through the fabric.
