8. Thanks for all of this. I knew most but glad to see the rest.
Did you see what Skittles called Will, "The Queen Mother of DU"!! I'm still laughing about that one. If Will were reading this thread he'd have something choice to say.

10. Being a Massachusettian
Is that why he also seems to be something of a Kerry supporter? And occasionally more plugged into the Kerry machine than most? Or is it just me?

3. first welcome to DU
a big donkey is fine, just don't be a big a......... nevermind LOL ;)

Will Pitt writes for www.truthout.org check it out

the deleted messages are usually from personal attacks when tempers run hot, or are from right wingers who come here to disrupt our boards

DU is for democrats and we support the Democratic Party here. When we want to argue with right wing wackos we go to the yahoo boards, but DU is our haven away from the NeoCons

11. Most recent entry I see there is summer 2002
Is there another place where he is blogging now? Or does he "make do" with Truthout, DU, and all the other places he writes and speaks and does everything else he does?

He really does get around, thank goodness. I'm glad we have him on our side.

13. Will's the reason I'm here...
After the election, deep in despair, reading Buzzflash.com, link from Will to DU. Will is a sharp cookie, he is a rising star!

Couldn't believe my eyes when I found DU! It only took a couple of minutes to turn into a couple of hours, now I'm hooked.

DU! You are my people. :hi:

14. My experience was rather similar. I'm glad we all found DU.
And you'll enjoy it when Will replies to one of your posts. It's happened to me several times, and it always makes me feel that I'm connected to a viable group instead of being helpless and isolated.

You can tell from my username, I believe that despair is a totally losing direction to go. Got to keep fighting for hope, spirit, and the right things to do.

:hi:
