GW!

Sean, Mark - pay attention!

I don’t know what time, and I don’t know exactly what location (YET!) - however, President Bush is going to be in West Allis, Wisconsin on Friday, September 3rd. You can go down to the Grafton Republican Committee office tomorrow and pick up your tickets.

We have 4 tickets on reserve and are headed down there on Friday. I’m going to get to see him and hear him speak this time. Not like this time or even like THIS time, or EVEN like the time my Democrat boss didn’t let me go see him speak at the Wisconsin Medical College (even though I had tickets) saying she’d rather let me have the day off to get my nails done before she’d give me the day to go see him speak!

Well, Friday - I’m going to see him speak! Yay!

    You should have immediately said “Can I have the day off to get my nails done?” with a big ole Republican smile.

    Well, luckily I don’t work for that person anymore. I work for myself now - - so no excuses needed, I’m just taking the day off! :D

    Try to touch the hem of his trouser-leg! Seven years of good luck if you do, or so I hear. :wink:

    Really, though, you are quite an ardent and visible (thus useful) supporter. You should try to get a handshake out of it.

    Oh, man!
    Have a GREAT time!
    I would sooo love to see GW speak in person.
    Hope to one day meet him.

    Working for liberals?
    Dems the breaks.
    (heh…I’m such a doof)
    Knowing me, I would’ve protested BIG time with my boss if I had been you…then shot on over to see GW speak ~ en route to a job placement agency.

    Personally I’d rather meet… …well just about anyone actually, but good for you, hopefully he will manage to string a whole sentence together:twisted:

    Amanda & UptownGirl - - thank you :)

    steven - his trouser leg? seven years? really?? I hadn’t heard! ;P

    RedFred - - I recognize good wishes in those words of yours and realize that was the best you could do — so I thank you :) Actually, I happen to find his stuttering a bit endearing…..but then, you knew I would :)

    Around The Sphere
    Mr. & Mrs. BH go to a Harley Owner’s Group National Rally. The ride home sounds fantastic. Full moon rising, stars dotting the sky and the thousands of bugs they killed.

    Candy is Pondering a Point. Where does all that hair come from?

    They waited…
