[CorpGovActivist]

13. So help me...

:argh:

Actually, my partner and I saw him on Y2K New Year's Day, jogging just like that at the Naval Observatory (Veep's official residence). He waves just like that.

18. I used to work with a woman who's dad was Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy

and he was stationed at the VP's residence. He used to go jogging with him once in awhile! :D

[CorpGovActivist]

31. THE Master Chief, right?

:patriot:

I was a midshipman, briefly.

My partner thought I was gonna get us arrested, by saying hello to him as he huffed by.

- Dave

[no name no slogan]

37. Yes, that's right. THE Master Chief.

I couldn't remember if they had more than one in the Navy :dunce:

That's pretty cool, saying hello to Al as he went by! :thumbsup:

[CorpGovActivist]

51. Naval Knowledge Rocks...

... and here's http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_mesg&forum=364&topic_id=2401396&mesg_id=2401589">a fuller account of that encounter with him (one of several).

The Observatory is way cool, too.

- Dave

[rocktivity]

35. Gore had a Master Chef Petty Officer? No wonder he ate so well

that he has to jog all the time!

:headbang:
rocknation

[CorpGovActivist]

65. Yeah, after a certain number of chevrons on the sleeve...

... the calories seem to go into "bonus mode," eh?

:rofl:

- Dave

[madinmaryland]

33. Sorry Dave, but I suggested it in teh longue!

Didn't think someone would bite so quick! But it was funny!

[CorpGovActivist]

64. Meet me at dawn, sailor. There will be lashes. Wet noodles. Boiled. Soft.

:hug:

- Dave

[Catshrink]

Duh.

[last_texas_dem]

19. For a second I thought I was going to get to see

a Rick Astley video when I opened the thread! haha But the (literally) running Gore was a good one, too.

[Jennifer C]

20. Hahaha

:rofl:

[RoadRage]

21. I feel as though i've been Rick Rolled... LOL NT

[ElsewheresDaughter]

23. you're a bad boy/girl....

:spank: :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank: :spank:

[Pastiche423]

24. Brokered convention

[lastliberalintexas]

59. This agnostic prays nightly for one

[Pastiche423]

68. Wow!

That makes two agnostics that are praying nightly for a brokered convention.

[lastliberalintexas]

71. It's either The End of Days

or else we might be on to something. Or on something. :)

[Pastiche423]

72. I know I'm on something

but I don't think it matters. lol

Although it may not happen (brokered convention), it still has kept me calm this election.

2004 did me in. It affected me more than any election since 1972. I was crushed when Dean dropped out.

[lastliberalintexas]

73. You must be my twin

I was also a Dean supporter who has esentially sat this cycle out. I wanted Gore to run, but didn't happen. And although I could have supported Kucinich or Edwards (only after his IMO humbling apology for the Iraq war), I have not had the energy to really get into anyone's camp. I'm just going to write in someone to the left of Eisenhower and keep praying.

Peace and a happy 2008 to you. :)

[Pastiche423]

74. W/the exception of johnnyboy

we have thought/felt the same way. I have a "Howard Dean for America" teddy bear looking over my shoulder as I type.

Dennis was my fall back. :( Now I am donating to his congressional re-election.

Until the convention is over, I'm going to keep hoping for Gore.

Peace and happiness to you, as well.

[BlackVelvet04]

26. What's the point in this dumbass shit? n/t

[Guava Jelly]

28. Because people are tense and this is fucking funny

:)

[no name no slogan]

29. guess

[lutefisk]

32. Wait a minute, Al... is that you?

Holy shit!

:bounce:

:patriot:

[Solon]

40. Did someone surgically remove your sense of humor, or were you born that way?

Lighten up, damn. :eyes:

[JBoy]

47. That's right. Up until now, GDP has been 100% Dumbass shit free.

:eyes:

[madmunchie]

27. Asswipe!

My heart just skipped a beat!

[Control-Z]

30. Ok, I clicked

even though I knew better. But it proves I can still dream!!

Where are you Al? If only...

[madinmaryland]

34. I still dream of re-electing Al Gore!

[tammywammy]

36. That looks more like the "Mall Power Walk"

:)

[Indenturedebtor]

38. BWAHAHAHAHAHA

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

Very nice :D threads like this really brighten up my day.

[msongs]

39. sad that al sits this one out leaving us stuck with obamahillary nt

[HughMoran]

41. I clicked assuming I'd see Al Gore jogging

I wasn't disappointed!

[FlyingSquirrel]

42. AL GORE'S LOCK BOX LIVES ON....

...At least at my Union.



This is where we cast votes for everything from the Negotiating Committee to President of our Local.

[no name no slogan]

43. That is COOL!

All of my union voting has been done by mail, so we never get to see the lock box. It probably wouldn't matter, though because the only thing my union is good at doing is negotiating lower pay and worse benefits. :(

[FlyingSquirrel]

44. Been there done that.

I specifically remember the low point in 1997 when we were close to accepting a crappy package, and then the NON-UNION competitor was offering something much better so the company had to match it!

Geez... unions aren't what they used to be.

But at least they can still save your job. Sometimes.

[asthmaticeog]

45. I love you.

:loveya:

[racaulk]

46. I give you zero points for originality.

:thumbsdown:

[bluesmail]

48. You are sick

[Carni]

49. That is so NOT funny

That in fact is probably the worst headline and the worst timed headline that I have ever read on DU.

[no name no slogan]

50. heh. this thread has been around for an HOUR

and you kicked it from page two.

Now how is that not funnY?

[Carni]

55. Your avatar is Lie-berman?

Now THAT is funny--what a jack ass THAT guy is!

[no name no slogan]

70. That proves you do have a sense of humor then

because that's why Joe's holding down my avatar spot

[twenty4blackbirds]

52. What was your reaction?

It's a good gag post.

More interestingly are people's reactions to the possibility that Al Gore really is in. What was your reaction?

Annoyance? Hope? Despair?

[BuyingThyme]

53. ..

66. He would get the Edwards treatment if he were to run again nt

[Catchawave]

67. Made me LQQK...ya stinker

Nader's just activated his exploratory campaign...with a donate button to clicky on. He tried to tell us he wanted Edwards...or else. WTG Dems. Sigh.

[Kurovski]

77. We've been cheated here, folks!

He's running, but he needs to do it in SHORTS!

[no name no slogan]

78. He's trying to distance himself from Clinton

hence, the sweatpants

[thetaoofterri]

79. Shit, I clicked...

[Warren DeMontague]
