new pet peeve

It seems commercialization raises it's ugle head everywhere doesn't it! We have come to expect things to be quick, easy, and cheap. Is it the chicken or the egg?

I know the organizers of the games put a ton of hard work into what they do, and get little to nothing back, or even lose out completely!
They do provide a venue for the little guy though. Yeah, the odd wolf will show up, and the odd sheep will be shorn; but, maybe at the same time that guy has a true interest, buys a cheapy learns how he got taken, and goes to one of the sponsors here, or Kathy or Barb. So, there is a silver lining. What matters most is that you take pride in what you are wearing, and how you wear it. The chaff gets sorted from the wheat in the end!
