"Brad's Not Afraid of the Dirty Work"

Our dear and my favorite uncle, (don't tell anyone else that!) Brad King, is running for the Utah State Senate, and because he is doing this, he is gathering his forces, namely his family in Price, and having them be in parades for him. I have been in two of them so far, and I love it! Uncle Brad, in both parades so far, has been placed right behind the horses. So his lucky job gets to be the pooper scooper! However, he has made a clever slogan to go along with it. "Brad Is Not Afraid of the Dirty Work"!
In both of these parades I had the "privelage" of handing out candy. It is actually really kind of scary. Here you are, being nice and throwing out candy, and here these little short kids run up to you screaming "GIVE ME CANDY!! GIVE ME CANDY!! CANDY!!!". It has made me pretty much terrified of little kids; at least ones during a parade. But I would rather hand out candy and deal with the little people than pass out flags to all of the old people. That was the other job option and I had no desire to talk to old people and answer all of their questions about Brad King. They are far worse than the screaming kids. Lucky for Mom, that was her awesome job, and she did incredible at it, although a few times, she did fall behind. But who could blame her when she has 20 questions coming from everyone?
