To nobody's surprise there were protestors today in DC, they attempted to disrupt the metro system
and block the Key Bridge, a leading artery into DC from Northern Virginia. I got hosed twice because I
come in from NoVA on the metro and it is raining hard which makes traffic worse anyway...to the point--
I got off my train in Rosslyn because I had to use the bathroom. When I was getting back on the train,
there were protestors on the train platform handing out pamphlets on the evils of America. I politely
declined to take one. An elderly woman was behind me getting off the escalator and a young (20ish)
female protestor offered her a pamphlet, which she politely declined. The young protestor put her hand
on the old woman's shoulder as a guesture of friendship and in a very soft voice said, "Ma'am, don't you
care about the children of Iraq?" The old woman looked up at her and said, "Honey, my first husband
died in France during World War II so you could have the right to stand here and bad mouth your
country. And if you touch me again, I'll stick this umbrella up your ass and open it."
I'm glad to report that loud applause broke out among the onlookers and the young protestor was at a
total loss for words.
