Washington, D.C.

Here's a closeup. Are we looking at the Oval Office? Is President Bush looking out the window? Does he see me? Is he waiving at me?

Here's a panorama of the grounds. I wonder, if someone was stupid enough to climb the fence and make a mad dash for the White House, how far would they get? Maybe to the fountain? Maybe halfway to the fountain? Would it help to run in a zig zag pattern? Wouldn't it be interesting if they put up a measuring system, like the one they use in the Olympic sport of javelin throwing? With such a system you could see exactly how far people have gone in the past. The Secret Service just marks each and every crazy's last step. My guess is they probably wouldn't get very far.

Me and the White House. We're really tight, we go way back.

Well, that wraps up my "outside and at a great distance away from the White House tour." Hope you enjoyed yourself as much as I did. The White House is a really interesting place, too bad I wasn't able to get inside it. Since my tour was relegated to the outside only, I can only give my tour a rating of 4 thumbs-up out of a possible 5 thumbs.
