A bunch of guys in suits were partying hardy, and she covered their table. At one point, they asked her if she was going to see the Prez. the next day. She said, "See him, I'm going to shoot him." They got really sober and said "We can put you in jail for saying that, you really shouldn't." She said, "Give me a break, I'm a photographer." They ended up partying together to the wee hours. Makes you wonder just how secure the president is, eh? ========== Eric Welch St. Joseph, MO http://www.ponyexpress.net/~ewelch Is reading in the bathroom considered Multi-Tasking?
