Hello folks
:hi:

especially hi to those returning from DC! Glad to meet a bunch of you. Went to the rally but could not find the DU group. Just way too many people there. I ended up marching solo

11. glad to have met you too
I called Progmom, and tried to catch up with you folks, but I just could not find you in that sea of people

at least i got to see a shirtless man with enormous full size breasts with a sign that said "breasts against bush", a picture that will haunt me forever :scared:

35. No these were not flabby man breasts
these were straight up female breasts. They were huge. I have never seen anything like it

there is a medical condition caused by hormone imbalances or certain medications that can cause men to develop real breasts. Prostate cancer sufferers, for example, often develop breasts because of low testosterone

50. And I feel truly sorry for you that you had to see it. Though,
being self-protective, I do have to add that if one of us had to see it, it was better you than me.

But you do have my sympathy. I'd advise the application of copious alcohol before bed tonight; maybe if you get comatose enough you won't dream of Mister Tits.

That must be a truly bizarre individual, right there. Almost, but not quite, like the guy who wants to surgically turn himself into a cat...

17. Hi Zuni!
:hi:

Sorry I missed you too!

I tried to find the DU contingent but the area was far too mobbed-- which is a GOOD thing!

Did catch up with some of them Saturday nite.

A fabulous weekend-- tits, goatee and all!!

But it was simply impossible to locate the DU contingent in that sea of people

18. We Marched with a Couple We Marched with in 1969.
College Sweethearts who, like us, married...it was exhilarating but kind of sad...36 years later and still protesting a Nutjob's Ilegal War !

42. Oops. I must have misread the string of messages...
I was under the impression you met both him and bettyellen.

They are, the both of them, well worth knowing.

As are, come to think of it, pretty much all of the DUers I have met myself. A good crowd.

48. Hey!
Sorry I missed meeting you too. I missed lots of the gatherings- made it to the Hawk and Dove and met some great people but I couldn't even get to the back of the room. And the march, Ay! impossible to connect with DU, my friend and her family who drove down on Saturday morning, we tried to get together but kept missing each other's cell calls. Almost lost hubby in the first 5 seconds of the march, but we did manage to stay reasonably close throughout the day. We were both photographing like crazy things and it's easy to lose track. Next time!

P.S. Marching solo with that many people???

54. You too!
I was so happy to see faces finally- wish I'd had some oomph left Saturday to go to the party- hubby was beat, back hurting, and had to upload hundreds of pictures back at the hotel. We stayed in Virginia and I didn't relish the Metro alone idea so... Cool to see DU t shirts during the march, tried to get up to where they were, then everyone shifted and poof! they were gone. What an experience!

I was tempted to shout really loud "I'm REDWITCH and this is a BIG DEAL for me so LET"S HAVE A ROLL CALL, who are you people?, one at a time, stand up and identify yourselves" I think it may take more than one DU meetup to sort everyone out!
