I was eye to eye with an agent in 2008. Coldest blue eyes I ever saw, most serious person I ever saw. He never ever quit scanning the crowd. had no doubt he would put a hole in my forehead Without hesitation if I got out of line.
Yes. Indeed, yes.
There's LE, and then there's SS. Quite a difference in demeanor. And this guy had a loud voice to match. Hubby's reaction was amusing. Been teasing him about not getting me sent to the pokey with him.

I've heard that story from President Bush before, too. One of my faves for how honest and true it is.

What to do when you get yelled at by the Secret Service:
- Recite the Pledge of Allegiance
- Sing the national anthem
- Show your tax returns, prove that you have paid America's bills
- With no sudden movement, turn around and leave. No sudden movement!
And don't get your wife sent to jail with you!

Oh, the visit to the Mayo Clinic, sans mask.
Ayup, and all I thought I would do this morning is get a couple birdhouses using curbside pickup.
They were a heck of a good deal, but not worth risking getting in trouble with the Secret Service.

All that security, but no mask
I don't know. Never saw Pence.

I guess my intent was not clear, so whatever you wish to say or do, just go for it. That is the nature of TNCR.
I'm sorry Brenda, I honestly wasn't trying to hijack the thread with the usual rubbish. It was a great story about hubby
Proud supporter of Plan 2525. Everything you think, do and say will be in the pill you took today.

Remind me to tell Mr. Brenda my Langley/Carter story sometime...

C-5 galaxy
Yea pretty cool, I’ve seen them fly over here a number of times, moving sh*t around the world.

Not to worry. TNCR has threads that evolve rather quickly sometimes. That's why I changed my tune to let people know they can post whatever they want.
And sometimes a gal just wants to have fun. That's me.
My work can be rather serious, so here I tend to post lighthearted things meant to entertain. They probably seem frivolous and completely unnecessary, and that's okay with me. I'm all for frivolity. Bring on the frivolity! And the frogs!
Frivolous frogs
are my speciality. Y'all just wait 'til this summer. Moar frogs! -

If the pic doesn't show, I'll repost it tomorrow. This is the transport plane by the airport, the entire airport building. The plane is nearly as big as the airport.

Indeed. We'll have him join a happy hour, beverage and all. He's adorable, but I am biased.

Yeah, we don't have those much around here.

Good story, Brenda!
I wish your husband would have tried just a bit of humor, to see how that goes."Wanted to let you know, your plane's pregnant."
"OMG hubby (in low voice), they know. . . "Well, if you ever get another opportunity, let us know first. We can all help you with what you or your husband should say.

@Copper said in Saw this today:
Those travel arrangements are exceptional.
I have NEVER seen a plane as large as that transport plane. Holy cow, that thing is just enormous.
You need one, Copper. You want one.
We used to take our planes to Martinsburg, WV for maintenance. The national guard used to keep c5s there. Sharing a taxiway with those was really fun. It was like looking up at the Empire State Building with wings.
They replaced this c5s with c17s, which is what I believe is pictured above, pretty airplanes. It was fun to share practice airspace with them.

LOL, Rainman. You would all have fun giving advice, I'm sure. I don't know that I would have been able to make use of it though. While hubby was blithely driving right past Mr, SS and the other SS or LE with him, my brain was registering surprise and shock that we were doing exactly what we been asked NOT to do. It's a good thing my jaw didn't hit the floor mat.
BTW, our 1994 Tahoe is not a deluxe vehicle. That was just me being silly. It's a 1994 with about 250K miles on it. It's our winter beater vehicle.

Sharing practice airspace with those must have been like a porpoise swimming with whales.
