The Strib, pro forma, notes:
A much smaller group of counterprotesters held signs and shouted slogans supporting the troops, the war and Bush.
They left out “dominated every argument with calm style”.
And while our numbers were certainly small, I called my friend from Citizens for a Supine “Safer” Minnesota for an estimate.
“You had close to 1000 people there”, she said upon looking at the group picture.
I always feel better about numbers after I talk with her.

You insinuated that I was lying when I said I would try to get to the protests.
Goodness. Wouldn’t want to insinuate anyone wasn’t telling the truth, would we?
in your last post, I get the distinct impression that you’re insinuating that I am lying about what I was doing this weekend.
Doug, I’d like you to meet irony. Irony. . . Doug.
Honestly, for a guy who insinuates Mitch lied about his experience while counter-protesting, you sure are an indignant sort when someone mocks you with the same insinuation regarding your weekend activities.
D’oh!
What Mitch said.

Yossaian, let me introduce you to Mr. Setup and Mr. Punchline.
OK, do we really need to keep asserting the other person’s dick is not as large as ours?

Michael Richards called and left a message: “Write your own damn rationalizations”.

Now, now, I think this thread has established beyond a shadow of a doubt Doug is, by far, the bigger dick.
You see… Now that was funny.
I knew you had it in you
really? I found it mean spirited.
Mitch:
“Ah. If Wikipedia says it, that must be that.”
They just go by what the U.S. Census bureau says: “In 2006, the oldest of the baby boomers, the generation born between 1946 and 1964, will turn 60 years old.”
About dot com agrees.

So do these people:

“Rubbish, Rick. The “baby boom” was the children of World War II veterans and people of that age. I am not”
Hey if my math is wrong I apologize. But if you were 38 in 2001, you are “of the age” of someone born before 1964.
It is a close call – maybe you can get some special dispensation from Joan Baez – I hear she is still the official keeper of the boomer flame.
Rick,
There’s a post in this. Stay tuned.

Na. Mean spirited would have been if I had added, “but we’re not here to talk about Mitch Berg’ dick” right after I told Yossarian “I knew you had it in you”.
Now THAT would have been mean spirited.
And there Doug goes again – from “verging on admirable” to “loathsome”, inside of 24 hours!
Oh please Mitch. I have a reputation to maintain. You should know that by now.
Somewhere a beeper is going off. Hold on, Doug! Help is on the way!

Whew! That’s better. I was worried we were getting dangerously close to a group hug.
