Catcher in the rye is the most overrated and over analyzed book ever. Nothing against Salinger though, Even he thought way too much was made about it.

i dunno mate. The angst and prose so universally & viscerally resonated w ppl (both male and female). i'm not sure i agree that it was overrated. Only to the extent that Holden has lived on for so many generations and as such has been "overplayed". A masterpiece is a masterpiece. Not gonna lie, I trekked to NH in high school in search of Salinger.... but i digress


“That digression business got on my nerves. I don't now. The trouble with me is, I like it when somebody digresses. It's more interesting and all. ...lots of time you don't know what interests you most till you start talking about something that doesn't interest you most. ...I like it when somebody gets excited about something.”

Definitely don’t want to take away from your feelings on the book. I’m not one of those “stop liking stuff I don’t like” kind of person. I just thought it was majorly oversold by.. well everyone. It’s very good, no doubt. I just never saw it the same way as others.
 
Can we make our own NATCA shirts?
I actually like the way the front of the blm shirt looks. I’d take a simple one like that even with just a bigger natca logo on the back. Most natca shirts are so gaudy.
 
Interesting that NATCA got behind a terror organization in the name of party politics. Yet when you attend Legislative training they claim bipartisanship. When the chickens come home to roost, all the leaders will be retired and the members will be left to eat a shit sandwich and like it.
