Whichever comes first.

Sixth photo from top Unidentified Freeper in the orange topped cap and the pink and green home-made and laminated posters is: Highly Opinionated.

Oh - thank you! You probably told me that when I took the pic, but I think old age is becoming evident...

Thanks so much for posting the pics. My son and I had so much fun! He said that he's coming back in 4 years and when he does he's going to the Freeper Ball--even if he has the opportunity to go to one of the "official" balls.

Great photos! Thanks for posting them. We had a great time at the Freeper Ball. And we were so proud to see Presidnet Bush sworn in.

Thanks for posting the great photos.

I've added a link to your thread in my below thread.

Inaugural Parade & W2 Ball Report, Audio, and Photos (large file warning)
January 23, 2005 | BillF

SKUNKS AND BLUE BRACELETS AT CHECKPOINT CHARLIE

The 7th Street security checkpoint ("Checkpoint Charlie") for the inaugural parade was closest to the American Sector established by the DC Chapter of Free Republic.  Waiting there, I coincidentally ended up near DC Chapter member, bmwcyle, and Flora McDonald, a Richmond-area FReeper of long-standing. As we waited in the crowd (it wasn't orderly enough to be a line), pro-Bush people mostly tried to stay quiet in the face of some leftists (maybe ten percent of the crowd) occasionally and individually shouting anti-Bush or anti-war slogans. However, numerous Bush supporters and people who just came to watch a parade would shout back every now and then.

On one occasion the crowd started singing God Bless America.  The song's title has three words, each word representing a concept antithetical to many of the leftists.

I told one leftist waiting in the security line near me to "swim to Cuba, free healthcare, free education," much to the amusement of most nearby people.
