Pics by Lurker Bob and [Mrs] Trooprally

This weekend started out slow, but busy. We arrived at Walter Reed early Friday evening to start setting up for the BBQ. More on the Walter Reed Freep is forthcoming by BillF.

Since BufordP is so elusive this weekend (he's on a secret Haliburton mission), he sent "Flat Buford" in his place.

BELOW: At Walter Reed Friday night, the ever elusive, ever exclusive, "Flat BufordP" seemed everywhere, but mostly he just hung around. It is believed he helped tgslTakoma do some cooking because he did not bum a cigar or two from Jimmy Valentines Brother or [Mr] Trooprally tonight.



BELOW LEFT: The actual GoE II event on Saturday saw "Flat BufordP" being his ever 'get-in-your-way' helpful self. Here he is under the GoE tent before it kicked off. BELOW RIGHT: Helping TrueBlackMan hold down Kristinn's props during Kristinn's Speech. Kristinn's and TrueBlackMan's speeches were the most uplifting that we've heard in a while.



BELOW LEFT: The ever brash, ever boastful "Flat BufordP" sitting on a RT bike. BELOW RIGHT: The ever vigilant "Flat BufordP" watching over some of the RT bikes as punishment for sitting on the RT bike.



BELOW LEFT: The ever loud, ever sour-toned "Flat BufordP" singing a duet. BELOW RIGHT: The ever smart, ever smuffing "Flat BufordP" trying to bum a cigar off [Mr] Trooprally. But [Mr] T ignored him since signs don't have hands or a mouth.



BELOW LEFT: The ever cuddly, ever cute "Flat BufordP" hanging with Coop. BELOW RIGHT: The ever energetic, ever enthusiastic "Flat BufordP" sitting with tgslTakoma and daughter of tgsl after helping to hand out our FR buttons and flags.



As with all dis-organizations, the little man always has to suck up to the little-BIG MAN. BELOW LEFT: [Mr] Trooprally is sucking up to "Flat BufordP" at our post-GoE get together at the Mongolian BBQ in Bethesda. [Mr] T is fearing for his position at this very moment because he didn't offer that ever cute and cuddly teddy bear of a man, "Flat BufordP", a cigar. After his suck up, [Mr] Trooprally could be heard muttering to himself as he slaps himself on the side of his head, "Do teddy bears smoke cigars? Oh me, Oh my, I'm in trouble now." BELOW RIGHT: The rest of the FReepers sucking up to "Flat BufordP" in a group picture. No back row for this ever celebrated celebrity.

" ... Me and The Spirit Of Allegiance were just facing 90 degrees when all the pics were taken."

That's good, I like that.

Hey, your tag line, is that Tommy Thompson of Fred?

I see you are back on line, that's good news then.

Not your fault, Flat BufordP just hung around and was not his ever proactive, ever positive self.

Hey 3D, how you doing?

Yea, we have to sometimes keep it light, or we’ll become ‘grumpies’ like the moonbats in Olney.

Sorry I couldn't be there. At least Flat BufordP was there to represent me.

To: everyone

Ahhhhh, now the sign makes sense...sort of :-) You have to brief us EAGLES in when we show up. I told you all I thought you were having too much fun. Great pics. Mr Troop Rally, I am thinking of taking up cigar smoking. It seems an effective way of creating a moonbat free zone.

Yep, was there. Good speech Kristinn and I enjoyed Kevin Martin’s firey speech again! Good to see C-SPAN back there actually covering the event (without censorship) as I saw it on tv when I got back to the hotel room. Anybody have a link to C-SPAN’s video footage?
There was so much going on that weekend with Rolling Thunder activities, and rightfully so that I felt GOE II was not as focused as we were back in March, just my observation. Haven’t downloaded my pics yet as I just got back to Tennessee last night.

Since I’ve never had any kids, school aged or not, I didn’t get the joke at first. In fact, I misread it as FAT BufordP, especially given the belly that shows right above the sign in the very first photo. Oh well, FAT or FLAT, we can always count on BufordP!

EaglesUpFlorida - Welcome to FReeRepublic!

That is part of the fun, giving Eagles a hard time. :-))

Cigars, one of the moonbats worst nightmares. Be sure you read last Fridays Walter Reed Report. 3 of 4 of us verbally engaging the moonbats while smoking cigars. One idiot actually complained to the officer who stopped by about the smoke. The officer kind of "blew" him off since it was on public property.

Seriously, I posted two threads because I didn't want to have fun with BufordP on the more somber GoE II thread.

FYI: FR works in html code. Search for bootcamp and sandbox for some real good pointers.

To: JoyjoyfromNJ; tgslTakoma
tgslTakoma said it best:

“In order to help BufordP through the trauma of not being there, we decided to resurrect and adapt the “Flat Stanley” story and adventures from our childhood memories.

Stanley Lambchop became a flattened boy when a bulletin board fell over on him. He slipped out of the classroom under the door and went on many adventures.

Flat BufordP is an adaptation of that story.”
