2. Thank you...
I was all set to go and then, the thought of lugging around my O2 tanks just didn't seem to be all that prudent what with all the protesting goin' on....

Next meet-up....

when there is not so much commotion, I'll be there...

3. Probably wise.
:hug:

(I wish I could promise that I'd post the pix tonight, but I'm not sure if I'll have the stamina. It takes 1.5 hours to drive home from DC, and I don't know how late I'll stay.)

I'm on my way to a training session with the security marshal's in a few minutes.

I'll catch up with everyone around 10 PM at the Friday night meet-up.

9. It was hot there today
My office told me it hit 92 today, but it's cooling off rapidly right now, and - get this - after a really long stretch without rain, it's supposed to rain and be cool tomorrow.

Rain all day tomorrow.

We need the rain down there, so I'm seeing this as a good omen, one that will keep the good marchers from getting sunburned or sick with heat exhaustion, and will, in fact, make for an even better event.

Gotta see the bright side of things ..........................

11. Nothing will keep the Freepers away more than rain...
Fair Weather Patriots...

I think Tommy Paine, that great designer of democracy, had something to say about that a few years back....

20. Yeah,
a rainy election day, I was taught while living in Chicago (where the dead can vote), means the Democrats will prevail.

Of course, in Chicago, they know how to make it rain .........
