WEEK 23 - Olney, MD, 6-03-06: Operation Infinite FReep, Slow but rewarding FReep

[trooprally]

After last Saturday's "most excellent" FReep, this week could be considered 'slow'.

It was very windy and it was decided not to put up the red banner. The blue banner held its own in the 20 MPH wind. It was overcast for part of the FReep with a chance of thunderstorms, so we were over joyed when the sun came out.

I sometimes think the bad weather is saved for Saturday so that MOAB2 can be put up at Walter Reed, which is very good, because WR is the main place that we need to show our stuff.

Our four regulars showed up, Lurker Bill, [Mrs] Trooprally ([Mrs] T), Cindy_True_Supporter (CTS) and myself.

All pics are by [Mrs] T.

BELOW LEFT: Lurker Bill BELOW RIGHT: CTS with blue banner billowing from wind. BELOW BOTTOM: [Mr] T, with flags waving.

The moonbats had 13. They must have made sure everyone showed up for support after the verbal jap-slapping they got last week from BufordP, Jimmy Valentine's brother and Doctor Raoul. Our local didn't show up as she said she would. I assume the threat of thunderstorms kept her away.

This week was slow. Less traffic, fewer honks, thumbs up and waves. But we still got more than the moonbats. One active duty soldier put his ID up to the windshield so we could see it as his passenger waved to us. The buses and police who honk and wave are also satisfying.

We also got more one-finger salutes, thumbs down and head shaking than before. I had a verbal exchange with one lady when she gave us the "V" for victory as she was stopped at the light. She kept saying peace when I said it means Victory.

In the past, we have had very positive responses from the Jewish community as they walk back from the Synagogue. Several weeks back our neighbor and his family stopped by and talked with us for 20 minutes. This week a family stopped by and they were totally against us being in Iraq and against President Bush. Sounds like they need to come out from under their rock. Our efforts in the Middle East are good for Iraq and Israel.

Unfortunately, the moonbats were there.

Though they were on time this week - 3:15 PM. The past weeks they have been showing up at 3 PM.

BELOW LEFT: 3:15 PM and no one home. BELOW RIGHT: Ah, here they come. BELOW BOTTOM: Here comes another taking the scenic route.

BELOW LEFT: "I have to pee so bad I don't know which end is up". Is Chief Grumpy smiling? BELOW RIGHT: "Thank you for showing me which end is up. Now where is the bathroom? My Oxybutynin Cloride hasn't started working yet."

BELOW LEFT: "Can you read my sign? Is it right side up? Hey, I'm talking to you, don't worry about your banner". BELOW RIGHT: "They can read your sign and they still think you are an idiot".

BELOW LEFT: Sign troubles again. BELOW RIGHT: "X" marks the spot.

BELOW LEFT: Peek-A-Boo is back. BELOW RIGHT: "Yea - right there, you got it, now just don't eat it".

BELOW: "V" for Victory sign and Chief Grumpy still not smiling.

BELOW: And here is a shot of the whole gang.

Then a Code Pinko Auxiliary member came over to talk to us. He talked to Lurker Bill BELOW LEFT and CTS. He can't be very proud of his convictions since [Mrs] T could barely blow up his buttons BELOW RIGHT which said 'Code Pink' and 'Impeach Bush'. We were breaking up and he didn't get a chance to talk to the [Mrs] T or I, no great loss. CTS really gave it to him and had him back tracking with her facts. She especially had him stumped when the conversation came to how could she talk for the military. She told him she was a former captain and he just stood there looking dumb.

Above is what Lurker Bill saw, but BELOW is what [Mrs] T's camera saw. In the past this guy has occassionally showed up and held signs for a little bit with the 'Quackers'. He even tried to hand fliers out (assume it was about Code Pink) to them. This week he came late and just tried to hand out fliers to both groups.

REMEMBER
Next Saturday, same place, Georgia Avenue, MD Rte. 97 and MD Rte. 108 in Olney, MD
Same time, 3 PM to 4:30 PM

As always, the D.C. Chapter's rules for protesting will be in effect. Briefly, they are: No violence, no profanity, no racism, no provocations, obey the law and treat all law enforcement officers with respect.

Thank You... ping!

TROLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LOL LOL LOL

[3D-JOY]

You are just TOO good at that.

All three signs are now winners!

[trooprally]

LOL - you are busy tonight. I need something like that to keep me awake while I get caught up on my work.

Great pics.

I couldn't find any asparagus or rhubarb material of interest, but knowing of Mr. T's interest in beautiful models, I thought that I'd include the below beauty, clad only in a towel, and taking a sexy pose with a cucumber.

The model is known for her gorgeous eyes, eyes that put Mona Lisa to shame.

Drumroll . . . .

[BillF]

Still no asparagus or rhubarb material that I liked, but not hearing back on the cucumber model, I am posting another cucumber-related item, below.

They won't let me imbed the photo (click here), but it is cucumber soap that you can buy on eBay. Maybe give some to the peaceniks next time that they are upwind of you?

[trooprally]

BF -

Some of us have to sleep for a living!! :-))

Hope you weren't waiting up for some reply. You had a long wait.

Some how, don't know why, but the face mask just doesn't make it. Maybe on Chief Grumpy across the street, but then we only see her through a zoom lens.

Your soap is "cucumber leaf" soap. If they get hold of it across the intersection, they might shave it into little pieces and smoke it thinking "cucumber leaf" being some type of code word for the evil weed.

Is it good Morning to you or Good Night, sweet dreams? Day Dreams??

First, Thanks for standing up for America, our Troops and our way of life.
Second, I don't blame "peek a boo" for hiding her face, I would too if I were an useful idiot.
Third, you guys need to invest a small amount in portable shredders to take care of the trash, oops, they call them flyers, huh? (Bluesagewoman or Prov3456 can give you details) :<)

Finally, thanks again from a vet for what you are doing.

[Minnesocold]

Great sign retouching -- LOL!

[GulfWar1Vet]

Hey Mr T...I didn't make it to last Saturday FReep. Mandatory overtime. Hopefully this Saturday...

Great pics as usual! Thanks for being out there...

[trooprally]

I think the D.C. Chapter needs one just to bring to our FReeps. No telling when we'll have the opportunity to use it. Let us know how you'll worked it out.

Doctor Raoul thinks we need some bull horns also. I guess after 23 weeks these moonbats aren't going away any time soon.

[Mr] T

[trooprally]

One good thing about having ones own homebased business, I can arrange the schedule as I want. Great for those spur of the moment, weekday FReeps like at Rumsfeld's house.

Ditto back at you RE Thanks for supporting the troops.

[Mr] T

[trooprally]

Bump to Mr T

[\/\/ayne]

You know, sometimes I think
that Waveman dude has a point!

[trooprally]

Hey \/\/ayne - you made it to Olney.

LOL on Waveman's sign and robot(?) on grass. Almost missed it.

You and Albion Wilde keep this Report worth reading even by me, and I wrote it!

Thanks

[Mr] T

hi. Can you link trooprally to the shredder thread? I cannot get it to link. thanks

[BillF]

Sure, mock a guy for trying to bump the thread for the West coast FReepers. :)

[bluesagewoman]

(Shreds)

[BillF]

What no bumps this morning? Sleeping late?

[trooprally]

Thanks for the link. Is there a Report for the other days?
