I'm so glad I asked.
Oh Atticus I am high hearing about this protest. I love that you were there. I knew you would be. How did I know?? I have a photo from the New York Times and I think I can see you in there. You are waving at me and you have a huge smile on your face.Thank you for being there for me and all the others who couldn't make it.
Do you think for every one person there that there are 5, 10, or 20 people who would have loved to have been there?
I want to share an idea I developed because of way too tired arms. I no longer hold up signs.I injured my arm one summer. I was laying on the bank of the Conn. River when a dead Lamprey came down the river and wrapped around my right arm and I lurched away and boom I ripped my rotatorcuff. I can still recall the scent of the rotting Lamprey nestled against my arm.
So since I couldn't use my arm to hold up a sign to protest for almost a year I painted images on a painter white body suit, you know the big outfit with the zipper up the front. I have painted a number of outfits all with different images and photos and topo maps. They are my message board. I wear my protests. It's really cool and easy and looks terrific. I don't own the idea so if you want to paint an out fit yourself...I invite you to do so.
