If you haven't got your bracelets yet...
NEW YORK (AP) - After spending 10 days in London with friends who were outspoken about their disdain for President Bush's policies, Berns Rothchild came home wishing she had a way to show the world she didn't vote for him.

``I sort of felt ashamed, and didn't really want to be associated with being an American,'' said Rothchild, who lives in New York City and voted for John Kerry.

Her mother had a suggestion: bracelets, inspired by the Lance Armstrong Foundation's popular ``LIVESTRONG'' bands, that would signal opposition to Bush.

That is a lawsuit waiting to happen. He can't fire you for wearing a bracelet unless it gets in the way of you doing your job effectively.

Buy one or even 2 and give one to your boss. Hopefully he chokes on it.
