Sweetest picture from Today's rally
This is not a crowd picture, just two people at the rally.

But it warmed my heart.

I wish I could embed the picture, but I can't.

You'll have to go to the slide show and look at picture #2.

It will be worth it! (though you will have to endure a commercial)

1. Is it the pic with the two snipers on the roof?
That's cute.

(Seriously, I know the one you mean. It was good to see that picture at the end of a week like this.)

4. With Noscript and Firefox I do not get a slideshow
just each photo in order.

What a total change in mood from this to the Beck-style astroturf rallies. There is a honest cause behind this not a manufactured group of dupes trained to needlessly froth at the mouth.

9. That was my problem.. You have to add washington post
Edited on Sat Oct-02-10 08:14 PM by hlthe2b
and every single url that hangs when you try to load it, into your exceptions list. (no scripts options). I also added wapo to the exceptions list for firefox. Finally, I went to my PC Tools internet security package and added some of the urls that were trying to transmit but hanging into the exceptions for the browser guard. I also downoaded the latest addition of "flash" plug in.

It took me probably 30 minutes to do all this and get it to work. Nice photos, but it pisses me off that WAPO makes it so damned hard. I think though what was ultimately causing the problem is the blocking functions of both noscript and firefox (and my other security package). Well, I guess it solves the problem with the WAPO site for a while, but damn!

Good luck

14. I did a screen print, cropped it,
saved it as a .png with IrfanView and uploaded it to my web site.

17. Yeah, I can be.
1. Ya gotta be smarter than the machine.
2. There's usually 1 or more ways around it.
3. If you really wanna know about something, try showing somebody else how to do it. B-)

11. I don't have the "flash plug-ins" to run the slide show. I'll take your word for it.

16. I prefer picture 11
It's so simply put, but it's so profound at the same time to see the contrast in the age of the sign holder and what is written.
