And The Washington Monument (Blinks) Goodnight

Here are a few photos of monuments that I took in D.C.It was a bit strange walking around and seeing these iconuic images in person I felt pride, saddness, and extreme anger all at the same time.

The Vietnam Memorial
I took a picture of this Man taking a moment to mourn the loss of a fallen friend. His reflection in the memorial itself haunts me.
The Korean War Memorial

The Sherry Jenkel Memorial


The Lincoln Memorial

A close up of President Lincoln in all his majesticness.

The Capital Building or as I like to call it the symbol for "Greed and Coruption"

And here are a few images of The Washington Monument.

Photos from the protest and my review for Q and not U's Final performance will be up shortly so stick around.

That photo of the Capitol Building is gloriously framed and level. It looks like a postcard. Good work!

I like the Sherry Jenkel Memorial because it grants wishes and they put her in a cute shirt. It looks like the new one I just bought.

Looking at your photos, along with all of Aarons, I'm really glad that you had a good time, had good weather and stayed safe. That rules. It's unforgivable that you missed out on Minus the Bear, but I'll let it slide.

I'm looking forward to the protest shots.

How Did you respond so Quickly. I just posted that entry like two seconds ago. And how did you find out about my Blog any way. I just noticed today that I had 6 messages on the Frankie post. He is Majestic.

I regret missing Minus The Bear, But my legs would not move and I was dead tired.

Thanks for stopin' by

Why, were you keeping your blog a secret or something? hmm?

The Washington Memorial truly is a majestic stone wang.

I like how it took both of us a month to put anything up about our trip. I'm surprised I didn't forget everything.

Hey Ryan- The front of that shirt has a picture of Yoda from the Clone War cartoons on it, and it says "Jedi Master". You only wish that you could buy such a cool shirt.

My shirt has Andre the Giant on it, with the word "OBEY" under it in big letters. I think I win.

Otherwise, I shall challenge you to a "shirt-off."


That's not at all what i meant.
