Things that shouldn't amuse me quite so much...

But really, really do:

In the hallway outside the cafeteria, there were two tables representing various groups.

One - which was announced well in advance in the college's weekly bulletin of events - had two representatives from JET. There were a decent number of people there. In fact, at first I thought that it was the line for the cafeteria, but it was in fact just the group around the table.

The other table, just on the other side of the wide hallway, had three uniformed representatives from some branch of the military, with a table full of pamphlets and such. There was no one at that table, and all three of them looked rather bored and a bit lonely.

Happy Constitution Day, everyone!
