3. ONe of these years I'll get to a democratic convention

Best I can say is I'll been at 2 republican conventions :eyes:


I was really hoping that Philly would have gotten the Democratic convention back in 2000, but the repukes grabbed us first. Not that we minded - they brought tons of money into our city and we still went for Gore in 2000. I went to a few Al Gore visibility events in the city. But I was also suppose to attend a party being held by the company I was working for (a major pharmaceutical). I was the computer support person for their Lobbying division and they were having a major to-do. I was suppose to attend to help handle the computer setup for the event and I was really trying to find a way to get out of it. Unfortunately my grandfather had passed away about 2 days before the convention and that allowed me to get out of the event (I recruited a co-worker who was a major repuke supporter to take my place - I figured he would appreciate it more than me).

And of course I'll be at the RNC convention this year.

4. Someone (Bucky) posted yesterday the most

succinct response I've yet to hear to the "flip flop" meme. . .

It went something like this. . .

"Politicians who can't flip can only flop."

thought it was great.

5. good idea!!

looks like I will be in town most of the week starting tomorrow. I am game with the egg thing and READY. I am no mood for freepers this week... :hi:

[sniffa]

6. mmm eggs

y'know, i'm usuaLLy good at keeping up to speed on the 'other side' but i didn't reaLLy keep on the freepers. i suspect they'LL be in short suppLy here but i'm sure they'LL get equaL to sLightLy more press time than any LiberaLs.
