When people see me they ask when I am going to write about the end of the session. It is forthcoming, I promise. I just have to recover.

Here are some pictures of the last night to tide you over until I begin pontificating again:

The PBS broadcast from above. Notice the Starbucks drink.
Now we know her secret.

The session was tiring for everyone. Ira Bostick, one of the Senate’s

doormen, catches a well-deserved Monday morning nap.

I believe this was absolutely the WORST session that we have had in a long time.
Insanity is electing the same people again and again expecting different results.

Those pix are excellent photography!

Does the Pentagon-shaped table PBS uses mean anything?
(Just trying to start trouble!)

Thanks for the compliment. I’m trying to sell the camera! If you are interested let me know.

I would comment on the Pentagon-shaped table, but we Starbucks drinkers should stick together. :)

I miss those days, though it was usually watching Otis Leggett sleep.
