Were you in drum corps? sorry about the typos.

What a lovely photo thanks for posting. I think the VP has really enjoyed today. He looks happy and relaxed.

I'm so happy I was here with you all, too. I may be back later for the balls, but now I've get to head out and try to make it home in this snow. See ya later, all!

Yes, it was a speech you have to keep thinking about again and again to realize how great it was.

Sad.....that young man would die defending those spoiled childrens freedom.....and that is how he is treated.

The song was "Chim-chiminy, Chim-chiminy, Chim, Chim, Cheree."

I remember singing that song at the elementary spring concert many moons ago. LOL

Nope not in DC, can't afford the Inaugural and CPAC. Opted for CPAC because I couldnt find a hotel within 10 miles of DC. Getting a taxi is almost impossible on the evening of the Inaugural.

Isn't there a law about defacing Government property?

[snugs]

Did you see the lovely photo of the VP at post 3998

[KiloLima]

Huge cheer and he said Thank You right away. They love being appreciated.

We're Freeper "missionaries"! :-D Actually this blue state is wonderful...it's just the politics that stink.

They all looked happy and relaxed.

I'm worn out and I lay on the couch for the last two hours.

Even Jenna (Laura's mom) hung in there. She seems like such a delightful, dear person... always smiling. Guess that's where Laura gets it.

The guy probably needed the gas mask just from the BO smell of the protest march..

[Molly Pitcher]

Well, I've been lurking and watching the parade the past few hours...Loved the variety of bands and units from ALL over this wonderful country! What a cross-section! Great fun to watch.

[mystery-ak]

That pic makes me sick!....I can't stand to look at it!!

[nicmarlo]

Replaying now on C-SPAM...finally get to watch this!

[Timeout]

Several hundred students walked out of classes at several Seattle colleges and universities to protest the inauguration

LOL! Students ditching class...what courage and sacrifice!

Time to find another vet.
