Somebody has to ask, so I guess the question should come from the blonde...

Which game is that, JVb?

Stay said: Dress warm for tonight's FReep.

At least one FReeper will bring a supply of hot air and it will be welcome tonight.

Knuckleheads is the kindest thing we can call them. Some of the first-timers are, but the regulars are socialists, Marxists and throwbacks to the heyday of anti-American protests.

First-timers don't often return, once they are educated by the words and signs from our side. Many of the peace crowd haven't done their homework, it seems; and they are shocked to hear that Code Pink's financial aid doesn't go to the US troops that they say they support, but to the insurgents killing our troops in Iraq. You should see the faces, especially when we let them know that Code Pink is also planning a trip to Cuba for New Years to celebrate the communist revolution down their, with their hero Comrade Fidel.

And one other thing... Code Pink promotes their WRAMC protest as a somber, respectful vigil. But with "Sing Along with Perry" as their headliner for a couple of months now, the somber, respectful vigil has become a little party, with singing, dancing, cheering and applause -- sometimes right beside their "Quiet Zone" sign.

They're in a real QUAGMIRE, I tell ya'.

Great job and great photos.

Can someone explain how "squeegee guy" obtained this nickname?

At one of the early Freeps he (Eric) remarked to a driver stopped at the intersection that the people across the street (us) were stupid. I yelled back at him a wager that there were more "degrees" on our side of the street. Coop started calling him "The professor".

Then Eric started going out into the middle of the street (when the light was red) to talk to the drivers of the stopped cars. I started yelling, "Squeegee your window for a buck?! Squeegee your window for a buck?!". Then he became "Professor Squeegee" or just "Squeege" for short.

Thanks, guys, for what you do. I hope to be able to join you one of these weeks, if I get a chance to come to DC. It's kind of a tough commute from Iowa.... I do feel that these actions are vital to keep the fact that there are far more supporters of the President and the war than there are protestors - they just get more publicity.

Regarding your "Community College photographer" last week: Why is it that these women (womyn?) always have that same mousy look?

It was great to be with everyone.

Nice picture. I'll have to make sure my wife sees it.

At one point she said to me (after I had mentioned Code Pink sending money to Fallujah) that we ought to work Zarqawi into a chant. Right off the top of my head (which I can hardly afford; there's enough off the top of my head, thank you), I came up with:

Zowie! Wowie!
They love Zarqawi!

It got to be quite a popular chant in our section.

Boy, those Code Pinkos are really gutless, aren't they? They stand there singing '60s songs, the one guy wearing the flag as a bandana (after someone called him "Professor" I starting calling him "Professor Do-Rag"), then they flee because we meanies are YELLING AT THEM. Poor babies. Waaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!!

Do you think they'll still come out in the cold? I think there may be limits to the America-hating efforts of these gutless clowns. I hope so, anyway.

A great way to honor our vets on Veterans Day.

Thanks. He's only 10, but huge, isn't he? He enjoyed the entire thing, being out after dark, eating, holding the signs.... Maybe he can come again sometime, but he's been warned not to start complaining at bedtime....

jhopkins and I will surely be back, but my husband has a really bad back and standing was bad. Perhaps a chair. My grandson isn't with me every Friday night. He usually goes home to WV every afternoon. We had a great time! Hope to see you all again sometime soon.
