I meant to post this Friday, but I didn't get to it. On my way home Friday afternoon, traffic seemd heavier than normal, a traffic report mentioned that some roads were closed for "a Presidential motorcade". George Bush, here? I hadn't heard anything. In any event, the road closed was in the opposite direction that I travel, so I wasn't concerned that it was going to hold me up.
As I get on the Interstate I see where the road's been closed because there are no cars on a usually heavily trafficked stretch of highway. It's just on the other side of the highway divider. Shortly thereafter, I see a number of police motorcycles coming down the closed road. Is he coming now? Then there are some police cars. He is coming! I get an idea and roll down my window. There are some more security vehicles. I stick my left arm out the window. I see the limo coming. I raise my hand and give George my best middle finger as his limo passes.
Did he see it? Probably not, but I gotta tell you, it sure felt good to do. I called my mom and we both had a big laugh. I only wish I could have taken a picture.
