I waited in line on November 6th to purchase a few copies of the commemorative edition of the November 5th Washington Post. I stood for 30 minutes, which is a long time for an American to wait in line, and bought five papers (there was a limit). I was feeling lucky, like I could sell them for a profit. To my dismay, later that day I was in a drugstore and a Post employee was setting up a cardboard stand and loading it up with the same paper I had waited in line for earlier! I said to him "are you kidding are these the same papers I waited in line and was made late for work for?"
"Yes Ma'am" he replied.
