Our very own iMacMan Cometh to a very, very cold Olney after several weeks being off, after finally getting his car repaired. Along with his appearance cometh his super great pics (BELOW) of passing supporters. In case you are interested, here is the link to the original 1973 movie, The Iceman Cometh starring Lee Marvin.
One pic that iMacMan did not get was the lady who took both hands off the steering wheel and gave us two thumbs up.
And this is the reason that we are in Olney, and some of us Walter Reed, every weekend.
BELOW: Red Banner and Cindy_True_Suppporter, with hammer in hand to drive spike into frozen ground to make hole for our flag.
Other Patriots in attendance Saturday were Legionnaire Halsey (USMC - Korea), Lurker Bill, Cindy_True_Supporter, Eager, Fraxinus, and myself.
All pics are by iMacMan.
The Olney FReep started off where the Friday night Walter Reed Freep left off, 12 degrees. That is where the similarities stop. While the temps at WR fell from 20 degrees at 7PM to 12 degrees at 9PM, Olney started at 12 degrees and with the sun, climbed to a balmy 25 degrees.
BELOW LEFT: Lurker Bill. BELOW RIGHT: Lurker Bills sound set up, playing patriotic music.
BELOW LEFT: iMacMans favorite subjects. Inside joke. BELOW RIGHT: Whos that masked man? Why its Eager, you numskill, Yuk-Yuk-Yuk!!
BELOW LEFT: Lurker Bill and Halsey. The bright sun played havoc all morning with iMacMans camera. BELOW RIGHT: Me and Fraxinus.
BELOW LEFT: Eager on the front line with Lurker Bill in the back ground. BELOW RIGHT: Nice view of our corner.
TOKEN MOONBAT PICS: There were just 4 this week but after 3 years they are finally learning from our example. Their small numbers had them duct taping their banner to the sign post. But their rise in smartness was soon wiped out by their other banner falling apart about 10 minutes before the union quitting time. They decided to pack it up at this point in time. Also they learned from us to leave some people on the corner when the banners are being taken down. There was one moonbat that held her sign while the other two dis-assembled the banners.
The pics are in black/white to keep whatever moonbats looking at this thread in deja vu.
And then there is a difference between our one thumb up salute(BELOW LEFT) and the moonbats salute(BELOW RIGHT).

Thanks for the kudos.

I’m not sure but I’m surprised after Korea that he would come out. I guess he figures that it is only for an hour or so.
When they, Frank & Halsey first came out, they mentioned that they wouldn’t be coming out on real cold days. While Frank is having some health problems, Halsey enthusiastically comes out.
