Pretty obvious he ~wasn't~
Course, this being Olympia, he may very well have thought he was making some sort of profound statement.
What really makes it dumb is that there's a bike path that runs pretty much right along the Interstate.
Just now, I was on the phone with Steve, standing in the driveway and a couple of F16s flew over...pretty low...lower than usual anyway and the roar was just awesome! If I hadn't had my phone in my hand, I woulda waved the flag at them, because they might have been low enough to see. Alas, they were too fast for me to put down the phone and get the flag off the house!
But directly...not a minute or two later, along comes an AWACS! Right behind them, just about.
God bless 'em. Lord, keep 'em safe.
Just as an FYI, there *is* actually, or at least used to be, a short section of the freeway where you can ride a bike on the shoulder, but it's not where he was, it's the section right at Nisqually where there is no alternative crossing.
You know anything about these guys?

They're in Overland Park. They're also in Shawnee Mission. They're also a mile down the street from us...
Steve's thinking about dropping by...
I think he oughta go for it! No harm in appying!
He's in the process of updating his resume then I'm sending it to them.
He's got a cell phone now...gotta put that on there. I can't do it because my Word demo ran out.
:-(
Too bad they don't have a chemist job open....
I know! I thought of that too.
I was just thinking a minute ago that if Steve gets a job with them, perhaps he'll have to come up to Kansas now and then...the job description says Kansas City/Tulsa office...
Maybe I could hitch a ride and come see you and OB now and then...perhaps even swing down through Lebanon?
I'm at the library...had some things I needed to print up, then I'm heading to my BA CHEF meeting.
I'm trying to decide what to fix for supper.
Steve was frying up some ground turkey when I left...don't know what he's got planned!
I gotta stop on the way and get a soda for the meeting.
Tonight's the night I boot the folks from the egroup that didn't re-up. Remember how stressful that was last year? Something like 40 people! This year I think there is three or four that didn't join again. And we have several new ladies...
Evening 2J - Our place is easy to find and we'd be glad to see y'all. We got a couple good BBQ places up here too.
I suppose that means one set of squirrels is defective...not sure whether it's the Washington set or the Kansas set...
Dunno, but I've never had a bit of trouble with them :~)
There's ripe tomatos out there for the taking too.
For that matter, there's a tree full of apples in the back forty that are rotting. I can't get varmints in my crops if I try :~D
