Mommy Addendum

I've read both these essays before, but I forgot how they applied. Rereading them, I was reminded of the freaked out Mommy of the post below when she found that a large number of people from her little town were ex-military. Oooh, scary sheep-dogs.
Anyway, if you bother to read the essay over on Salon, be sure and read the letters section too. There were some great responses.
