Comments
This was a fun, though scorching day in
the sun. Clinton is speaking at the podium. The fun part was talking to
everyone around me. I was kidding the Seaman's Apprentice about standing still and I
don't think he knew to what degree I was kidding. I ended up sending copies of it to
several people who were there, including him.
One odd thing, the dark "dot" in
the upper left of the building was a Secret Service agent with the biggest pair of
binoculars I've ever seen.
