Post pictures of you doing something liberal :P




Holding up signs next to a busy street in Mobile a few months back. I'm the one in green. ;)




And with Cindy at the Camp Casey Peace awards. We love you Cindy!

16. Much easier with a digital camera and Photoshop than it was
in the Old Days...we had FILM then, and we had to walk that film fifteen miles to the lab for processing, barefoot in the snow, uphill each way...

Actually: Set the camera and flash for manual exposure, so the room will look the same. Shoot the pix, and layer them in one Photoshop file.
Cut as required, because the exposure of the room will be the same.

Not that hard to do.

23. You just need to have a camera that allows you to set the exposure manually.
Then you can get into multi-exposure stuff, Strobe Painting, and all manner of madness.

Enjoy!

50. And all this time I thought that was a single exposure
with the shutter speed at bulb and multiple flash pops.

Technology takes the romance outa everything. :cry:

74. No, multiple flashes would have lit the room unevenly. Sometimes the technology
makes things a lot easier.

And I don't miss walking the fifteen miles to the lab with the film, barefoot in the snow, either.

12. Sorry, no pics (although I took the pic of Venus)
but there is this video...you have to get to the end for the liberal part. Otherwise, it is just me rocking out on my bass. But one cannot play Rage Against the Machine and NOT say something at the end.

30. Me right after vanquishing a bushbot.
A few weeks later I saw him again and he said he agreed with me. :eyes: Then he asked me out for coffee, so I don't know whether or not to believe in his conversion.

51. Not me- but I took pic
I had to bail my daughter, her boyfriend, and my stepsister out of jail. The car they were riding in was pulled for something like "no blinker" or "crossed white line." The cop wanted to search car and my daughter argued that he wasn't allowed. She argued so adamantly that they all got locked up.

I was secretly proud and brought camera.

Turned out the driver had some weed and other things under seat. He stayed in. It was all dropped cause he was never told he could search car.



:hi:

Best I could do with pics for you Barenakedlady lol :loveya:

52. As A Liberal Everything I Do Is Liberal...
but seriously this is the best I could come up with, a different spin on the clown story: I arranged for these clown ambassadors from the Ringling Bros. circus to go to the Pediatrics ward, the Physical Rehab ward, and the Geri Psych unit at the hospital I work at.

I thought that was pretty liberal since here were some clowns doing something for free, and I was trying to make sure they had access to places where people would appreciate them (despite my anxiety about clowns :scared: ) and for some reason something that seemed like it would have been the job of the PR department was done by me, and I still had to do my regular job around escorting them to all these places too! :nopity:
