Wear black tomorrow
Edited on Wed Nov-03-04 05:14 AM by AlienGirl
I am going to wear black tomorrow (okay, technically today, November 3) to show I am mourning the America I've lost.

Tucker

(On edit: the America they *stole*.)

2. I think the black armband thing is more significant to notice....
It will stick out no matter what you wear...

3. I don't like armbands (can't explain why...)
But having everyone dress in black, in mourning, for a day--maybe for one day every week--ought to get attention, I think.

4. Both would work, all black or just an armband
I'm wondering if I have any black fabric lying around here anywhere.

7. Wearing black, too.
Fortunately, most people here at work know to keep their distance from me.

9. I'm wearing it.
But I wear lots of black anyway.

However, the color helps people notice right away that I own a white longhair cat. Sort of ruins the effect.

"I you're not OUTRAGED you're not paying attention." Thinking of coloring my Support the Troops magnet with a black permanent marker.

17. My sister said lots of teachers at her school wore black!
the armband thing might be a problem at public schools. But wearing black definately makes a statement.
