I went to Hampshire college more than 30 years ago, during the Vietnam war. I've only been back a few times since, but I was back briefly this week. I felt right at home.

Can there be a more liberal place in the whole country than Amherst, MA?
If not now, when?

    It has been very interesting, from my perspective, to see the reactions and listen to the talk. I breathed a huge sigh of relief when GWB took won another term. I'm in the minority here in Mass, that's for sure. I kinda know how she feels, in a weird, twisted, opposite sort of way.

    Great shot, I almost feel for her.

    Election reaction experienced
    :cry


    South carolina is a republican state. As is the south. As has been discussed ad nauseum. I am not.

    I would see no signs here, like that, to photograph. I am also in the minority.

    Ahh yes, the Daily Mirror. UK's equvilent to our National Enquirer. I think they also ran a story about Michael Jackson being abducted by Aliens in this issue.

    This is what their coverpage typically looks like.
