Evenetually (read: when I sober up) I'll post my pix and some comments ... I actually have some audio ... though I don't have the proper cord to load it on the pc ... How can a software dude be so inept with hardware?! ;)
Trying to save your butt there, are ya?
Sucking up can work...and often does! :)
It does, you are forgiven:)
Thanks for the report.
It's not surprising he'd love FR... we were the ones who destroyed his domestic Bush arch-nemesis... Dan Rather! LOL
Thanks for your account. Maica and I gave up and went down to 3rd St. after waiting almost an hour while your security checkpoint seemed to be closed down. The jerks who caused this were really enjoying messing things up for Bush supporters, aka Americans celebrating a historic event. Some sad sacks just like ruining things for others.
BTTT for parade pics
Great report! Thanks for the post, and keep the pics coming!
I saw that in a newspaper (I live 10 min. from the capitol). A bunch of people in E. Lansing decided to wear black sashes or something like that to protest the inauguration. Bunch of morons if you ask me.
You musta been standing right next to me ... just because the president passes by you can't put down your camera and say "hi"? ;)
I was less than thrilled when Boy Clinton was re-elected, but I put my energy toward making myself successful rather than petty whining. If these folks put half as much energy into their professional development as they do their whining they'd be ... CONSERVATIVES!
Sounds fabulous! I worked and had to catch up with reruns on tv, but it was definitely history in the making. So glad you got to be there and give us a first hand account.
Indeed!
It's akin to getting dumped, then heckling your ex on a date ... useless and pathetic.
Cool report. Too bad it was so cold. Love the description about Cheney grnadkids jumping around in limo. Sounds like they had a blast.
As for anarchists coming out of nowhere to start throwing iceballs at you and swinging clubs. Consider the source. They live up to their degenerate reputation. Their gene pool won't allow them to evolve out of their neanderthal mentality. Grunting and snorting (cocaine) is the best they'll ever accomplish in life.
When I initially got there, alot of angry people in the line told me that the protesters weren't letting people near the checkpoint. I flat out asked the cops if this was true and they denied it. You must have arrived after the Anarchist incidents, when the crowd was basically split in half by the police.
