{snicker} Oh, modern culture... Ive had the quote of These are the times that try mens souls. running through my head for the last couple of days, matched to somebody saying it in a very solemn voice, but I couldnt remember anything more than that - just had the earworm. So I looked up Thomas Paines full speech, and well, yeah, but that wasnt right for the voice and what came after the first sentence. So I poked around a bit more... It was from the Kingston Trio song, the MTA. ;p These are the times that try mens souls. In the course of our nations history, the people of Boston have rallied bravely whenever the rights of men have been threatened. Today, a new crisis has arisen. The Metropolitan Transit Authority, better known as the M. T. A., is attempting to levy a burdensome tax on the population in the form of a subway fare increase. Citizens, hear me out! This could happen to you! (No, it couldnt be a serious memory of Paine and history - it had to be a silly song I grew up with. Thats me. ^^) youtube/watch?v=MbtkL5_f6-4
