Greatest. Rejection. Ever.

While doing my "Man on the Street" story today at Wal-Mart, I received the funniest rejection yet. When asked if he would like to respond to my question about the progress being made in Iraq and have a picture to go with it, a middle-aged man replied, "I better not. I'm wanted by the police and a picture in the paper would just advertise my whereabouts. But thank you."
As I thanked him through my chuckles he let me know he was kidding about the police. That rejection got me through the next five without it being personal.
