D.C. Chapter ^ | Friday, January 3, 2003 | Kristinn

Our plans are coming together. Permit approved, speakers lining up, press releases going out.

[68 grunt]

Inclement weather will bother the creeps more than us. We will generate our own heat. Semper Fi, FR.

[68 grunt]

God's Speed to you. Marine! Get some for me. OooooRahhhh!

[Angelwood]

I hope we see you before you leave. Our thoughts and prayers will be with you in the Gulf. Take care.

[FreeTheHostages]

Not again! Frustrated, I so agree with Tgsltakoma. It's just not *helpful* to keep doing this in a public thread. We really really don't want this kind of "help," OK?

[FreeTheHostages]

I also feel compelled to mention

I assure you you are *not* compelled to mention this stuff. We're trying to *organize* a counterprotest and you're gleefully playing "bearer of bad news." I am not compelled to mention that your last gloomy forecast was totally wrong and we had beautiful weather. But there I did. :P

[Fred Mertz]

I would love to attend, and I might find a way yet.

I finally got my pics developed and have a good one of RaceBannon on porta-potty duty.

[68 grunt]

You'll be in our prayers. We hope to be able to see you before you ship out.

The MOVEOUT dudes would truly enjoy meeting todays fighters. I wish I could tell all in the Armed Forces how much we respect and care for them. Sharp hand salute to 'em all.

A few words to DevilDog, adrenalin can be your friend and your enemy. When times are tense and you feel your heart thumping so badly you don't know whether to $hit or go blind, tell yourself, (you must manually do this), think. You must direct the adrenalin to your brain. Think first, then act. Semper Fi.

[68 grunt]

Most excellent, Kristinn. Ten thousand thanks are not enough.

[Angelwood]

Can you send a copy of the photo of RaceBannon? We have a section on our website for photos and might be able to post it for all to see. Check out the DC Chapter website link.

[68 grunt]

Virtue means doing the right thing, in relation to the right person, at the right time, to the right extent, in the right manner, and for the right purpose. Thus, to give time away in protest is quite a simple task, but for the act to be virtuous, the donor must give to the right person, for the right purpose, in the right amount, in the right manner, and at the right time.

Borrowed from Aristotle

[BufordP]

Hope you can make it!

[FreeTheHostages]

Kristinn - -re press releases going out. RodgerD had those neat proposed handouts that we might want to give to some members of the press (like say the Washington Times). Do you want me to make some color copies of them to bring Saturday?

[FreeTheHostages]

P.S. I'll save a blanket for you, just to prove I don't hold a grudge over your weather reports. :-)

BTW, You're WAY too nice! I *do* hold a grudge. That guy can't take a hint!

[TBP]

At the last rally, a couple of people who couldn't be there took phone calls and posted a live event thread. Will we be having one of those again?

[Hobsonphile]

You know what? Screw you people anyway. FrustratedCitizen merely intended to *inform* you of the inclement weather possibility so that you could be prepared. Could you possibly be bigger jerks?

And what he does *is* helpful. No one wants to freeze their buns off at a rally when they could be prepared and bundle up. FC is *not* trying to discourage people from coming, and if you are interpreting it that way, then you both are idiots.

[kristinn]

It's a good thing to do. We'll open it up to volunteers.

[kristinn]

The flag guide is excellent. Please bring color copies to the meeting if you can.
