Rally To Restore Sanity And Or Keep Fear Alive in Washington DC. gargantuen | twitter

JP: I adore you.

SFC: I guess that means I like you very much too, that's how it works isn't it?

JP: (shudders with delight)

The dual not-quite-political rally put together by Reddit and Comedy Central humor pundits John Stewart and Stephen Colbert.

 

This is the first (and probably last) rally I've gone to on the Mall. There were at least 250K people there (if those not on the Mall, but trying to get in were counted, I'd bet there were over 300K. It was, of course, utter chaos. Those who watched it online had a better view and overall experience than I did.

 

There were, however, some neat signs and some fun people. And I took pictures

In the waiting area outside of the studio before the taping

"Where's Colbert?" - CNN Grafitti Wall, DNC. Was a good point - where WAS Colbert. He would have livened up a generally dull and platitude filled weekend. Kind of, anyway.

Still to do as of this photo:

* Rejig his eyebrow-raising mech;

* Trim the fingers;

* Fix the sewing around the neck;

* pick the small green bits of fuzz out of his hair;

 

But other than that, he's done, and I'm extremely happy with how he's come out. I think this is the finest puppet I've yet made. He just looks so much like I wanted him to!

Can't you taste the truthiness..?

 

Got the last-to-one tub in a local Safeway.

Walkway between the East and West buildings at the National Gallery of Art. These moving lights are never on, so I was amazed to see them actually working on the day of the rally!

Tens of thousands, or perhaps more, flocked to Washington today to witness the highly-anticipated “Rally To Restore Sanity.” Many brought signs, some wore costumes, and thanks to sunny weather and an atmosphere filled with energy, most probably had a good time.

I made a mosaic of one of the promo pictures from I Am America (And So Can You) using hundreds of other images. Around 230 I think.
