Attention DUers: I'd like to introduce my wife, Freedom Fry!
Edited on Thu Oct-21-04 07:29 PM by rezmutt
She is new to DU, and we'll be hearing more from her shortly. :)

She wrote the first anti-war radio ad for MoveOn.org, and has marched against the invasion of Iraq numerous times (she appeared on NBC twice to comment against the invasion).

Last month, we were at a "Meet John Edwards" event; I got a handshake, but she got a full-on hug from our next vice president.

Without further ado, please say hello to Freedom Fry! :loveya: :bounce:

It's true! I notice you like silent movies. Any particular favorites? I'm a huge Buster Keaton and Lillian Gish fan.

45. Colleen Moore is my all-time favorite
But I also LOVE Keaton (you just missed my Keaton avatar), Valentino, Gloria Swanson, Lillian Gish, and some of the lesser-known stars, like Constance Talmadge, Lya dePutti and Florence La Badie.

Great to have another silent film fan around! :D

I'm on Mac, rezmutt's on PC. I work out of the house and am literally on my computer 14-19 hours a day. As rezmutt's often visiting at DU, there'd be no way we could share one computer.
