1. All books must be purchased at Vroman's on the day of the event, or you may call ahead and reserve a book to pick up after the event is over.
2. The books will be signed before the event. (We have been assured that they are hand-signed, not autopenned).
3. The procedure for getting a book and meeting Senator Clinton will be as follows:

a) Come into the store and pay for as many copies of the book as you would like (at this time there is no limit).
b) You will be given a voucher indicating the number of books for which you have paid.
c) Join the line outside the building
d) When your turn comes you will get to say hello and shake hands with the Senator (at this time we have no details about whether or not photography will be allowed)

I talked with the staff at Vroman's, and it appears that they intend to:

- open the REAR doors at 8:30 am
- give each Hillary! sheep a receipt for however many books they buy
- send them outside to wait in line until 11 am.

All of the above is on their PRIVATE property, however, so we will NOT be able to FReep them there, but the line will almost certainly extend towards the FRONT of the store, through the walkway between the side of their building and the Laemelle Playhouse 7 next door - where they will not be able to escape SEEING us, and HEARING us. :o).

I will talk with the Pasadena police department tomorrow to confirm this, but it appears that we will be able to assemble on the PUBLIC sidewalk directly in front of the store, on Colorado Boulevard - VERY CLOSE to the sheep line.

I will be arrivng before all but the most ambitious of the sheep, but suggest that the BULK of our forces plan to be there at 10 am, and stay until the Hildabeast leaves - at around 1 pm.

Rather than park in the Vroman's parking lot (behind their store) - where the sheep will be, I recommennd that we park in the HUGE parking structure about one block east of Vroman's - behind the Target store, which is located at the northeast corner Oak Knoll and Colorado.

Target even has a small food court where we can meet for the post-FReep fellowship and after-action review.

I plan to dress as "The Ghost of Jacob Marley" (from the "Christmas Carol" by Dickens) - with a black felt top hat and white stage make-up on my face, wearing many chains, and carrying a sign that says:

Hillary's
GHOST
LIAR

More details to follow in a NEW thread, after our planning meeting this Thursday (6/19) - at 1 pm in Redondo Beach.

Something like THIS, from the "Haunted House" at Disneyland:

It stinks to high heaven that she "pre-signs" the books. They seem willing to take the word of a known liar.

Does anyone have a clearly scanned copy of one of the "autographs?" It is pretty easy to check if a signature is autopenned.

Bump for LA FReepers' "haunting" the High Priestess of lies and Treason.

Is it just me, or does this remind anyone else of Seinfeld's Soup Nazi episode? LOL!! They should add the part where you should not look her in the eye or strike up conversation!
