1. I expect to get drunk honestly
I hope mass celebrations, I just cant wait!
Music, everything will be playing in my head when it happens. Sad thing is I bet it still wont be good enough for some people but that day is gonna be a hell of a day.

We need this. This is the only news I trust at all. Other than The Daily Show.

22. Yes, the final year
Ive got two anti war rallies to my credit, one pro choice rally, attneded a NoVA Dem rally last week, and I went to a couple of Kucinich events while in primary season. I am also in young dems, we elected our officers a unique way, I decided to become the top research specialist, I am not much of a talker as most people will tell you but I do know my shit, so I take to research and writing, hence why I want to be a speechwriter but would never be a real politican.

23. Do you think you'll go to college in the DC area?
You could build a killer resume of internships by the time you graduated.

24. My plan now is to go to a local community college
but NOVA is regarded as one of the top community colleges in the country, I actually want to leave Virginia for like up north or on the coast somewhere but if I could stay in DC and work my way up, that wuold be great too.

25. It's something to consider
the working world is largely about connections, but you could work in the local offices of politicians anywhere you went to school

31. I just wish I were less shy but thanks anyhow
Its the main officers in the school's young dems who really deserve a lot of credit, our number has trippled from last year and this district went 56-41 for Bush last time.

34. Everybody contributes in their own way
You'll find that with time and practice, your shyness won't stop you from doing what you need to do.

35. I predict
Edited on Mon Sep-13-04 08:31 PM by salvorhardin
in 10 years there will be a VH1 'DU: Behind that internet thingie that liberals used to do' special where will learn that after Kerry won the election, DU could only get work as a guest on cheezy daytime game shows on the Lifetime channel. Falling into a deep depression, the washed up internet star developed a nasty crank habit.

Devoid of the fame and attention lavished on DU during its glory days, DU was known to go on multi-day drinking binges with FreeRepublic. After being arrested when secret service agents trace bizarre e-mails to Teresa Heinz-Kerry reading 'I just want to be loved. Why won't you love me? Didn't we have fun in Boston?' back to DU, DU enters a court ordered substance abuse treatment program.

After successfully completing the 6 week program, DU gets ahold of Rush Limbaugh's agent and publishes its memoirs entitled, 'Life Bytes: The strange and torrid story of an internet message board.' The memoirs sail to the top of the NY Times Bestseller lists and DU lands a sit-com gig with Matt LeBlanc which is cancelled after only 1 show, just like Matt LeBlanc's three previous sit-coms after Friends.

A week later DU turns up dead in a seedy motel on the Hollywood strip. An embarrassed Skinner refuses to comment.

37. Oh my ga
I'm gonna party like it's 1999!!! Then I'm gonna cry for joy!!! Then cry some more!!! Then laugh like a hyena for like four hours and scare children!!!

Then I'm gonna dance anyone who will let me all over my house!!! No music? WHO CARES?

Then I'm gonna play the Black-Eyed Peas "Let's Get it Started" like five thousand times until I puke from dancing so hard.

Then I'm gonna go find my repuke neighbors and yell "BLAM!!!" really loud to them!!!

Oh wait...DU? Well I hope it stays! We've got mid-terms after that baby!
