DUers do D.C. Part ll: boilerbabe's pictures from the day of dissent
She recently sent me the CD of her shots and I got them up in my Web space last night. Since we seem to be on a picture posting spree in the Lounge, I thought I would throw these up here.

deutsey (left) and DancingBear in the foreground and JohnKleeb (left) and jonnyblitz in background




(from left to right) AWD, his friend, youngred, JohnKleeb, KG




Blue_Tires in Kansas sweatshirt and deutsey




jonnyblitz extravaganza (He's boilerbabe's brother)








In circle (clockwise, don't know who guy squatting is) jonnyblitz, MountainLaurel, youngred, AWD




LiberalHistorian tells us what she thinks of the GOP




This is her son at his first protest




AWD takes a break




The dog wasn't with us, but isn't this pic too cute?




You can see the rest of her excellent shots here:

3. Maybe there was more than one picture-taker.
Maybe all is not lost. ;-)

5. D'oh!
Don't you go to the grocery store? Just take the damned film! Of course, I've got an old roll on my desk too, so I'm not good at taking my own advice.

7. What happened to your digital camera?
I remember you had one when you came to Chicago.

If I didn't have a digital one, I'm sure that I would be looking at rolls of film as well. I was notorious for that. Heck, they would sit around so long that I couldn't even remember what was on them.

8. I got my digital camera last Christmas.
In Chicago, I borrowed my dad's camera.

This roll of film dates from last November. :-(

10. That is REALLY bad!

Do you know what's on it? What kind of camera did you get for Christmas?

17. LOL...there are some pictures from San Diego in May of 02.
There's some stuff from the first DU Texas gathering in October. Some other junk too. :spank:

I got a Fuji FinePix F401. Very similar to the one I borrowed, except that all the menus are in English on this one. Dad's were all in Japanese, since my mom's brother from Japan bought it for him. :D

you won't manage to delete the pics. :P

12. Isn't it?!?!
Needless to say, they were none to happy about it. It even earned jonnyblitz a coveted spot on one of their hate site offshoots.

It's nice to put a face with the names and thoughts. ONE of these days I'll make it to a meet-up or demonstration, I look forward to meeting some DUers.

19. Thank boilerbabe for the pics
They're hers, not mine. I just posted them for her.

Well, it's 50 degrees and sunny here so I'm going to take advantage of it and go do 50 miles on the bike while I can.

Please keep the thread kicked so everyone can see. Later! :hi:

27. ahh
thanks. So many words to describe me and you know what I think I am even skinnier now, a month after the fact. BTW seems like the folks have forgotten the incident.

24. hey, my sign is in the pix too!
it's behind Johnny Blitz...over his shoulder when we were marching...I think it's the sixth picture.

Proles, you and Boilerbabe and I need to get together to make some mischief.

I knew she had the right attitude when I saw her sunglasses. :)

...I covet those sunglasses...

29. Hey, since Johnny Blitz said his other sister is in Amsterdam...
I think we should have a DU gathering at a coffee bar...bet we could get lots of interested people! :)

or The Rijksmuseum, or both...wow, what amaaaaazing colors in those oil paintings... :)

I can speak a little Dutch (and I'm trying to remember more in The Meeting Room...), and we have some DUers from The Netherlands here.

plus, I've been trying to check out the chamber of commerce in The Netherlands, just out of curiousity...you never know if they need an ex-pat bookstore.

But I would love to show up in NY at the repuke convention with a "Bush Knew" sign.

thousands of them, in fact.

tee shirts, too.

surely they have some interesting bathrooms in NY City, too...and that's another thing to check out in Amsterdam...though we'd have to tip the attendant.

..probably more if we took pictures...

30. I didn't know it either till after DC
..even tho I was there! --but I was also tag teaming between the DU-ers and the people I drove to DC with who were tabling.

I should have known, tho, when Johnny Blitz made a comment about "oh no, white women with no rhythm, when Boiler Babe and I were marching to the drums of "Jammin' For Justice."
