"wot?"
[laughs] "A purple bulb"
"um no. maybe one of the other houses on our lot?"
"Well, you look like my kind of people. Here!'
She hands me a purple led bulb and a flyer describing how putting a purple bulb in your porch light is a symbolic show of reuniting the USA. I did a cursory web search and didn't see anything about it. And I don't see any purple porch light bulbs on in my hood.
Maybe it's just something she made up? It's a nice new purple bulb, still in the box.
It struck me as very Cruzian...
Purple Porchlight Project
if you favor peace, unity, respect, progress, lawful liberty, and education (purple) over divisive labeling, social media ranting and biased news reporting (dsrb?) and if you believe that facts, science, respect, civility and unselfishness (fsrcu?) are to be cherished, then please put a purple porchlight at your house to signify your desire for peace. Pick up a free lightbulb while supplies last at 1218 N Branciforte Tiny Library! Or buy at Home Depo or Ace Hardware.
