One campaign bracalet helps me make a new friend

[Russty Cat]

I was at a meeting of my local quilt guild last night. Feeling pretty down, because my two friends weren't there. It was our holiday party and I was thinking about leaving, cuz no one really seemed to be noticing me. I decided to get a cup of coffee and this gal came in and smiled at me. I told her that I loved her coat. We started talking and I ended up sitting with her.

After a few minutes I took my coat off and put my arm up on the table. She looked at me and pointed to my bracalet and said "One campaign?!" I said YES!!! Then she really shocked me by telling me she saw the boys in concert back during the Joshua Tree tour. I was like oh you and me are going to be good friends! I showed her my OOTS tattoo and she thought it was so cool.

So thanks to wearing the bracalet I have a new friend and when other ladies heard us talking at the table I explained all about the One campaign and what they needed to do to get involved.

U2bpbear your tattoo sounds cool! I would love to see pictures of it.

Here is a shot of my OOTS tattoo the night it was done. its a screen capture from the video. Something just spoke to me with the song and the video so a tattoo just seemed like a great idea. It was my 30 birthday present to myself.

The other U2-esque tattoo I have is a Angus Young Gibson SG guitar with wings that were taken from one of Edges t-shirts.

to all of ya. Its definetly one of the great things about U2 the bring people together.

That is one cool tat! I love it! Wouldn't mind having one myself, I've been thinking about another one for myself....

And on the topic of the One bracelets, I have made several friends by mine being noticed and I give them away, I bought a bunch of them and usually have a few with me all the time. They are great conversation pieces.
