Can You Picket Me Now? 

I like staying with friends whom I haven't seen in a while, but I do appreciate the chill-out time afforded by staying at the occasional hotel. No fear of inconveniencing my host, making a mess, staying up late, or being dull. At a hotel I can just kick back turn off my mind for the night.
The next morning I checked out and quickly ran into this group of Verizon workers, who were picketing the local Verizon wireless branch. We talked for a while, they signed the book and posed for photos before the police arrived and relocated them further away from the store.
