You were missed. Please note my lovely Club Gitmo bracelet, and know that you were with us in spirit.

I ended up on the other side of the street while my Club Gitmo air conditioner remained at my previous location. I wouldn't give up ground to cross and get it, regardless of how desperately it was needed. ;*(

Murphy looks like she's been hanging out with Mr Dickel. I wonder how much she is paid to do this stuff.

Wouldn't it do wonders for the troops in Walter Reed to know about this thread! Even the sight of a photo of the MOAB would raise spirits,

I am guessing they know maica. Several soldiers have walked out and have seen and/or talked with us. We have been photographed with cell phone cameras a number of times that I have noticed, by those leaving WR.

The charter bus filled with our heroes every Friday night are aware of our presence. Also, the wife of a soldier has come by a couple of times and even wrote about us in her blog. One night her husband told her he was tired and told her to go out and check on the FReepers. Maybe the others have more specifics.

I love you guys!

Thank you so much for your thoughts about bracelets and fans. Now you make me wonder what I can do next!

I missed you too. The new earlier time will be even harder for me to get free and get there...BOO HOO!

I'm told that Kevin discussed our counter-protest with you on your show yesterday and that you indicated that you wanted to join us sometime.

Here is the report from Friday. Hope that you can join us some Friday soon!

I know that, silly! I thought this one would be much more fun. LOL

Actually, it was a ruse to buy myself time to respond to the other stuff. ;*)

Thanks for the ping. I plan on being there Friday night. It might be 7 instead of 6:30 but I'm going to try and make it at 6:30. Had a good time and was glad to come out and help. What do you guys do if it rains? Do the pinkos show up?

Hope you're feeling better.

Thanks, it was great to have you join us.

Do you want to be added to the official DC Chapter ping list? If not, you may not be notified of our activities and may miss out.

Relative to the weather, see #16 and #17 above. We, or at least the most incorrible among us, will do our best to show up and thank the Walter Reed patients.

We've had some drizzle, but no heavy rain during the protest time. The Pinkos showed up in the drizzle.

You've been pinged separately (i.e., apart from the DC Chapter pings) to the threads.

Unless you instruct me to the contrary via FReepmail or reply, I'll add you to the DC Chapter ping list. That will insure that you get pinged, as opposed to a hit or miss ping.

Outstanding post and story. I wish all the FReepers in attendance would add this kind of detail such as you and rackatoot have this week.

I did notice that we got more honks of support that night.

Gadsdenman is proud of his daughters and his son and rightly so. They are great patriots!

Time for you to take a roadtrip and FReep with us again?

Right you are. I knew that the pain or the pain medication was going to cause some mistake.

She did say that. That Pinko was definitely very unhappy with their management.

Thanks for the kind words, but I always say that the true heroes are in Walter Reed, the other members of our military, veterans, and those who died in service. Also, the family members of those who sacrifice along with their military loved ones.

God bless you and keep you safe, there in Korea.

Maybe it's viral marketing?

Music to my ears. ;*)

BTW, she is also the pink-o that crossed the street to "read our signs" a few weeks back.
