I Like Ike

In a flea market this week I saw an I Like Ike button. This captured
my fascination because the most amazing necktie in our church is
Russell Sanders' I Like Ike tie from the 1956 Presidential election.


I couldn't resist. The button was in mint condition and cost only
$1. When I gave it to Russell, he was really touched.


We were admiring its pristine beauty when Russell noticed it said on
the back side that it was made in 2007. I was stunned and embarrassed.


My only consolation is that Russell now owns an authentic 2007 I Like
Ike button. Good grief!!
