10. I was just looking for you in the forums -- I deleted your message |
|
thinking that you number would register on my phone, but it didn't. We had really bad weather up this way and really icy roads. I couldn't make it down there. I'm brutally disappointed - I have Kleeb's number - send me a pm if you want it...I know he won't mind - plus, I think he knows how to reach LynneSin who is there, too.
:cry:

14. Me, too. I just spoke to him - he wasn't in the group that |
|
got pepper sprayed - It wasn't a great connection, though. But, he's fine.

16. I'm sure they're alright |
|
I think he's with Zack (youngred) and several others, and they were planning on going to one of the Counter Inaugural Ball things tonight. I was supposed to be going to DC to protest and staying down there with youngred until Saturday, but my plans got switched around.
Hope they had fun! :)

dressed like a pirate. He put his cutlass between his teeth, jumped from a building onto a banner, then rode the banner until he landed in a convertible that contained a sorority girl and drove off.
Or maybe it was John Belushi.
Nah, it was Kleeb.

19. I spoke w/ some of the legal observers |
|
They said only a few arrests and the pepper spray incident (not sure what that was about). Though they were from New York and they said the police here were more physical than the police during the convention.
