I took a long walk this morning in the hot Boston sun. I walked through Somerville and Cambridge and I saw a fair share of East Coast college bumper stickers on the back of Volvo station wagons.
What is up with people and thier college stickers? Is there some kind of collective pride here where everyone feels warm inside when they see a Harvard sticker on someone else's car? Or a Tufts sticker? Do other drivers grin and smile and wave? What am I missing?
Who is the audience? Who cares? I'm not sure what kind of feeling I'm supposed to get when I see someone else's car plastered with four or five ivy league logos on the back. Can you help me out with this one?
