'Republicans for Voldemort'

The Jimbabes (sp?)



The bikers are coming! The bikers are coming!


On the bikers' heels - angry war mongers on horses


And, bringing up the rear, local law enforcement


This is Geoff, an Iraq war vet.
He held up this sign when the bikers came by.
It says 'Troop (with an up arrow following) Support?'
Geoff spoke beautifully. He told us what it was like to be in Iraq, where the only news the troops see is faux snooze.

8. Hey you! What is the deal with this weekend?

Is there an event I need to know about?

12. Sunday is a Boyda fundraiser at the Hollow

5 p.m., usual rules: potluck, BYOB, grills, bonfire & soft drinks provided. And yes, the upstairs room will also be available for use in furthering political discussions among the usual crowd.

We held a fundraiser for Nancy out there a couple of years ago during the 2004 cycle and she loved it. She wanted to hold a fundraiser there this year primarily because of the tire swing. She loves that thing. It also gives her a chance to really let her hair down and mingle with the people. Although truthfully, last time she spent most of the time playing with the kids and the tire swing.

April 29 is the date of the next open bonfire party (potluck, BYOB, grills & soft drinks provided). We call it an "open" party to distinguish it from the "closed" parties that are held at the Hollow. Closed parties are when someone is using the Hollow for private birthday parties, group retreats or for some other specific invitation-only event. There aren't that many closed events during the year. The 4th of July is usually "closed" although no one is ever turned away. We could hold a closed party at the Hollow almost any time, we just need to let Rex know.

13. I don't know about Sunday

There is a big anti-war program at the park here that day.

15. Drop on by afterward

My biggest problem with it being Sunday earlyt evening is that I may have to record and watch "The Sopranos" and "Big Love" later. I'm addicted.

16. I will see what I can do

[Mabus]

17. MuseRider is coming

we could make this could a mini-DU meet-up. At the very least we could all convene in the upper room for a small discussion and exchange of ideas. That's the main reason I go to the Hollow.


on edit: bring the kids. I think they'd love it.

18. Our meeting here is until 5:30

So I would have to skip it.

Decisions decisions.

[Mabus]

19. We start about 5 and will go to about 8

Nancy will be here from 5 to 7:30. Around 6:30 she'll sit down to talk to everyone as a group. Before and after that you can talk to her one on one (provided she's not occupied in the tire swing).
