1. My friend and I drove about an hour to
get to the 2:30 showing in Albany NY..we had good timing all day for everything we wanted to do...with directions and meeting neat people ..it was just a magic day!

And F9/11 is a culmination of four years of bushwa..Michael Moore Style!

2. PITY!
The guy sitting next to me in the theater last night had already seen the movie that same day! He said he just HAD to see it again.

I don't remember the last time I saw a STANDING ROOM ONLY movie! Incredible!!!!

When my daughter grows up, I can't wait to tell her that the first date mommy and daddy went on after her birth was to see this movie! It was worth the price of the babysitter. And, as a new mother my heart cried for all those who lost their lives. It was tough to see.

3. I was at the 10:10 pm showing at the Century
and a man coming out of the previous showing took our pictures while we waited in line. He said, "I have to have a picture, because I'm so proud of all of us."

That's really cool.
That put a huge smile on my face, Logansquare!!

We had about 75 folks in a very big theater at an early afternoon matinee, Cincinnati. Bigger turnout than I expected, and everyone was in such a chatty, boisterous mood before the lights went down.

I'm so proud of all of us, too. :D

6. Yes, PHOTOS!!
My honey was downtown today buying our tickets for tomorrow. He said the crowds were enormous. He said there were booths, voter registrars, button sellers, happy happy people all over the place. People coming and going. He and his friend were just sort of watching for awhile when all of a sudden a bunch of nice folks came up and started pinning pro democracy buttons all over him (lol) He uses an electric wheelchair so he and his friend (also in a wheelchair) were sitting in the shade of a shop to watch. The shopkeeper came out and talked with them saying she had already seen the pic and claimed it was pretty awesome.

He had his digital camera with him. I asked if he took any pictures. He said OOPS, no I forgot.......arrrrrgh! lol Hopefully, we can get some tomorrow. Maybe posting some here would be fun???
