Here are some of the funnier things that happened to me during todays FReep:
We have had this guy come by on his bicycle for the past two years. He says he is an ALIEN from the planet Silica, were everyone is made of glass! LOL! Before the march started I saw him coming down the street on his bike. I yelled "Hey Alien Dude!" and waved at him. He came right on over and started talking. He told me he hasn't seen another alien for so long now that he is starting to forget what they look like. I asked him if he had seen any black helicoptors lately? "No, but I did see a silver one way up there in the sky three days ago. It was running in silent mode and was headed north. Whats up north of here?" To which I replied "Cheyenne, that's where they keep the nukes". ROTFLMAO!
When the march started we walked along the opposite side of the street waiting for them to cross over to our side. When they finally did, we waited to see which direction they were going to go when they met up with us on the corner. They started one way and we raced outin fornt of them. Then they changed direction and we had to sprint to get in front of them again. They were all laughing at us and we were cracking up too, because we were in front leading the way. One lady raced in front of us, then realized the peace-niks had stopped about a half a block back to chant and play bongo drums. It was funny watching the look of horror on her face as she realized they had abandoned her. She ran all the way back to them.
This wise guy college student came up to us wearing a T-shirt with a picture of President Bush on it. He had written "Fascist!" on W's forehead. I asked him "What is the definition of a fascist?". He couldn't answer that one. When I told him that it was someone who supported a dictator, he told me that George Bush was a dictator. Those CSU professors have done their job well.
You guys have way too much fun! Good job.
Are you sure you guys/dolls aren't "Lurker Protest Warriors"?
You did FReeRepublic good in CO. In fact, all over the U.S., we all did FR good. A BIG pat on the back to everyone!!
FYI: Over here in D.C., some of us when rehabing our signs, have been replacing some of the 'Support' words with 'Honor'. Too many of the liberals and moonbats say they "support" the troops. That word is being cheapened by them so honor differentiates us. But we still keep 'Support", because we really do.
Again, THANKS to all.

After spending 30 minutes with the VFW's on the corner of College and Mulberry, it was time to change locations and get ready for the parade.
Since we were there before most of the protesters arrived, they mistakenly thought we were part of their group.
You would think seeing the American flag being flown high and proud would have given it away, but it didn't. When we explained that the anti-American group is meeting on the other side of the street, they were irritated that we called them "out" as being America haters. They really believe they can be against EVERYTHING this Country stands for, give aid and comfort to the enemy, and undermine the war effort in every way, but somehow still insist that they "support the troops."
"Congressmen Americans who willfully take actions during wartime that damage morale and undermine the military are saboteurs and should be arrested, exiled, or hanged."(Abraham Lincoln)
I hope President Lincoln doesn't mind me adjusting his quote just a little!
