Well guys, its been a good run. I can proudly say Ive been here since the beginning (or something like that) ever since Asshat stole the election in 2000. I remember like it was yesterday...it was my sophomore year in college, ganja was $25 a bag and grades were unimportant. Ive changed a lot since those days. Im a graduate with a degree in Biology, living in China and teaching English. The only thing that hasnt changed is this: Im STILL a rabid Democrat! DU has been my way to stay in touch with the States. I read the LBN every day and cringe every week with the Top 10 Idiots. It has recently dawned on me, however, that DU isnt really helping my life. In fact, I tend to get angry and stay that way every time I read the news. Every time I hear how some pigheaded assholes are wrecking our wonderful country, it makes me want to go on a muderous rampage. It will be hard to do, but for my sanity and low blood-pressure I have to take a timeout. I will miss reading the news but I trust things will go on as normal. If its REALLY important, Ill hear about it anyway. Anway, I leave DU in the capable hands of my 70,000 plus brothers and sisters. KICK SOME ASS in 06 and see you in a few. PEACE!

p.s. If your ever in Virginia, give her a kiss for me.

and we need to spread that anger and outrage to others. I think it's a small price to pay for democracy. I just run a few miles when the frustration reaches a boiling point.
Sorry that you must go and I wish you the best in China. Check in when you can.

Come back when the angels of democracy have restored what is rightfully ours.
BTW, I was IN Virginia about seven years ago.
She never mentioned you. B-)

6. Was in Virgin Eye A just today and kissed it. It seemed awfully big. |
|
I am going to the Peter Gabriel clinic to learn how to stretch my mouth wide to let those big words come out. And as a bonus to kiss an entire Commonwealth.
Unless that is good old Virginia from the Medical Center Central Supply you meant then I shan't kiss and tell.

If I knew how fast they'd be the "halcyon days of yesteryear" I would've taken better notes.:patriot:

10. Another Old Timer Waves bye-bye. |

I know how you feel. I remember the Old,Early Days when my husband talked me in to going to an early DU Meet-up at Dave + Buster's in Philly. Lots has changed. Not for the better,IMHO.
I got to meet Libby,though.
Stay well and stay safe.
