4. My pictures are merely documentary, the fact that some are
statistically bound to be seen as incriminating isn't ~my~ fault :D

29. Hey, that's right near where my Granny used to live
(Garden Street in Cambridge). Boy, did I learn a lot hanging out with the hippies around Harvard when I stayed with Gram for the summer in 1967!

I'll try to get up there. I assume this place is a bar--will you all be wearing "Bite me Bush" buttons or something for easy recognition?

31. You can't miss the DU contingent
the bar is usually quiet on a Saturday afternoon, and I'm sure you'll see plenty of political T-shirts.
