I'm going to give this a shot. Service permitting, I'll try to post frequently through the day. Just arrived at the Metro. No sun but no rain yet as well.
I've got on a jacket, my "smile, there's no Hell" t-shirt, an umbrella, 2 packs of smokes, and an anxious smile. Was just yelled at for smoking in the Metro station - whoops. Can't wait to get down there. My first stop (after getting coffee) will be the AN booth. For now its just me, but I hope to make many new friends. I'll keep you updated...

I am wearing my Reason Rally sweatshirt this morning (Still morning here in AK). As I mentioned in a previous post I expected to be grilled by my mother and I was. What was amazing was her total agreement that religion is playing a greater role in politics than it should be. She is supportive of the Rally. Hmm...can't say that I expected that. Maybe she is coming to understand her son's atheism.

On CNN they just mentioned and highlighted the fact that there are several demonstrationsRallies going on in Washington (and elsewhere) but not a single mention of The Reason Rally.CSPAN was live streaming the Tea party's Health care repeal rally.Atheists still second class citizens. More people should have shown up. Number one rule in organizing... Nothing draws a crowd like a crowd.

On the way here to A/N I browsed by the major headlines news sites and found only one news article on the Reason Rally and it was well hidden on MSN. I have checked what cable news programs I receive (HLN, CSPAN, CNN) since I arose and so far not so much as a fact crawler across the bottom. Where can I find a decent livestream?

The Flying Atheist commented on Ruth Anthony-Gardner's group Hang With Friends"Joan, you mentioned awhile back about liking to eat a nice steak with some red wine. The Argentinians have a wonderfully simple accompaniment to their steaks: Chimichurri Sauce
It has lots of chopped parsley and garlic!!"
