"Are you registered to vote?" has replaced "Hi!" as my standard greeting

When a security guard dropped by to check me out earlier today, I first asked if he was registered. He was, and we had a very pleasant conversation.

Over the weekend, I was in a parking lot, with my car windows adorned with Obama placards, and a woman who pulled in next to me wanted to know how to get involved. While we were talking, a friend of hers pulled up, so I asked the friend if she was registered: bingo! another registration form!

I might actually learn how to do this stuff yet
