Can we get a DU countdown clock at the top of the page?

[Mabus]

So we can keep track of how long it is before Bush-Cheney are gone and Barack-Biden take over and restore sanity, dignity and hope, not only to America but for the entire world.

I think we deserve to know exactly how much longer we have until the adults take our country back.

1. That's a great idea!

[Mabus]

30. Thank you

and now I can send a link to this thread to the admins to show there is support (although I'm sure they've already got something planned). ;)

2. Counting down how long until Bush gets away with his crimes?

Sounds rather depressing to me. Let's wait for Obama to implement real change before we start celebrating.

[Mabus]

33. I was looking at as a countdown to when justice returns

It is our responsibility to demand that Bush and his cohorts are brought to justice. We need to lobby our new government. If they don't, we have the vote and we should use it.

3. "Countdown to the End of an Error" nt

[Mabus]

10. That's the spirit!

That's what I'm talking about.

[CTyankee]

4. I second that suggestion! I'd love it. It would give me a little bit of zest

as we slog through these final days.

[Mabus]

31. And we all need to be reminded there is still hope to save our country

The day cannot get here soon enough for me.

[annabanana]

5. I'd vote for that.. I visit the "Bush Clock" regularly

Every single time he does something ELSE designed to hurt America.. You know, DAILY..

14. Sometimes, several times a day

Thanks for that link. I'll be visiting it often.
:fistbump:

[eleny]

6. k&r

Be sure to contact the admins with the suggestion, too!

[Mabus]

29. Thanks for your support and suggestion

I just wanted to make sure I wasn't the only one who felt this way before contacting them.

7. Great idea!

I have one on my kitchen window sill. By it's reckoning, we have only 37 days, 9 hours, 43 minutes, 13 seconds.

[Mabus]

15. I've got one on the computer I use most often

but I don't see it when I'm on the tubes. I think it would be a great temporary addition to have. Especially as stories are posted that remind us of the damages Chimpoleon is still doing while he can.


Haven't seen you for a while roseaylavee! :hi: :hug:

[rosesaylavee]

17. Bet you are having a full house that week...

Mind if I and few hundred of my friends come and camp out on your living room floor come January 20? :P

I have been here but keeping low... didn't much like the primaries and the cabinet concern threads since the election are not my thing either.

[Mabus]

18. We would love to have you

LOL, you have no idea. At one point I thought we were going to be having 35 students from Minnesota. My husband was a little freaked out by that prospect. As it turns out, one of them has an uncle with a townhouse he isn't using and is putting them up. We're down to <whew!> California Peggy, evlbstrd and a few other friends who will be staying with us. Hubby still wants to rent out the basement and make a few bucks. That is still a possibility.

[rosesaylavee]

21. A wonderful oppty but alas

my husband absolutely hates the idea of being with a few million other people no matter what the scenario. We don't do crowds well. But I did think of you - I agree with the Admiral that renting out the basement would be a great entrepreneurial endeavor. If it were me, I would do it.

Have a great holiday!

[Mabus]

22. LOL

The closer it gets to the date, the more my agoraphobia acts up and the more I'm thinking I don't want to fight the crowds. :scared: A friend from Missouri is bringing a batch (or three) of his homebrew, so we'll see how much courage that gives me.

It may be time to work on an ad for Craig's list. It makes it a little harder because we have three dogs but I figure someone's got to be desperate. ;)

Thanks. Same to you and yours!

[rosesaylavee]

34. Ya never know but you may find them here

amongst your DUers. They can be just as strange as any peeps you may find on craigslist. I would name a price to claim a mattress in your 'first level' area. List the amenities and give a deadline and require an essay no longer than 300 words why you should choose them. References may be a nice idea too so you don't end up with any freeper types.

[HopeFor2006]

8. Oh Yes! It's what we've all been waiting for!

:bounce:

[Mabus]

28. For eight long years

I have been waiting to get that cretin out of the People's House and get someone in there who actually cared about people.

I'm bouncing right there with ya. :bounce: :bounce:

[EFerrari]

9. I love the idea. Been counting every day on fingers and toes.

:)

[Mabus]

23. !!!!

How many fingers and toes do you have? :rofl:

fwiw, my husband was born with six fingers on each hand. He says it was because he was conceived in Roswell, NM. Now he's got two little red nubs on each hand and still claims he can count to twelve.

[BumRushDaShow]

11. Oh HELL yeah!

I have a counter rolling in Firefox but a big ole one at the top of every DU forum and on the front page would be a joy to behold! :applause:

K&R this puppy! :kick:

[Mabus]

26. I think it would help reassure all of us

that the end for B/C is nearing and a new era is beginning.

[RepublicanElephant]

12. several great ones here...

[snowbear]

20. LOL.. some cute ones on there

[Mabus]

27. Thanks.

I posted that link on my facebook page to share with my friends. :party:

[hootinholler]

13. Recommended! Great Idea n/t

[Mabus]

32. Thanks for giving a hootinholler

Sorry, couldn't help myself.
:evilgrin: :rofl:

[DCBob]

16. Here's mine:

http://zbob.net/obamacountdown.cfm

Here is the latest countdown as of this posting:

:party: Obama Inauguration Countdown :party:

37 days 13 hours 36 minutes 18 seconds

3245778 total seconds
54096.22 total minutes
901.6045 total hours
37.566865 total days

This is based on 12 pm as inauguration time. Is that correct?

[Mabus]

25. That works

Although I was kind of thinking of something with graphics. You know, I'd settle for something along the lines of the fundraising graphic. Where Obama-Biden move toward Bush-Cheney as the time counts down. At noon (ET) on Jan. 20, Obama-Biden replace Bush-Cheney and the fireworks go off. ;)

24. That was scary

I got a clock for conceiving (something I have been avoiding) :scared: and a broken link.

I think this one works: Countdown Ticker Link

[tabbycat31]

35. I have tickers from there in other signatures

you can make any sort of ticker you want on that website. I just couldnt get the code working here. I've had an "end of an error" ticker in other signatures for years.

But the most common use of that website is pregnancy/conceiving.
