  • Started the day with the VP on Marine 2, ended with Biden in the East Room of the White House, and in the middle, I saw the Oracle/Red Bull Formula One car floating down the Potomac River.
    It was a weird day.

    good on the spot views again., Looked like on spot as the fire engines came in. Excellent view of firemen at work, esp the close up the ladder 'stairs' they used. Looks easier to climb than the ring by ring ladder steps of old.

    Here's a funny note: back in 'the day', (90's) there was an Inn/Restaurant called The Old Anglers Inn, near where I lived, by the Potomac, where we locals had rumor that this was where many senators/diplomats/ etc., brought their 'mistresses' for an afternoon-evening of delight!!!! Very secluded from DC

    I agree with your logic about sharing your sub sandwich. You did buy them a lasagna, that looked very good. If you keep bring them food home, they will start asking if they can stay at home forever ! I was also trying to figure out why old Joe had the Greek gentleman as a guest to the WH. Then I remembered that, everything is Greek to him !

    F1 car was cool to see, if you ever get the chance to go to a GP I would say go for it, it’s a great spectacle. I’ve been fortunate enough to attend a couple of F1 test days and GP’s because of my employer and I’ve met David Coulthard too, he’s a great guy.
