Bon Secours has awarded our firm the Special Inspections contract for their new cancer center.
As the point man on site, I pretty much am at the beck and call of the contract administrator.
I love what I do, but it gets hectic sometimes.

I hope our Fellow Freepers stay safe out there... the Protest Warriors ran into a little trouble a few minutes ago:
12:12 p.m. ET
Not So Peaceful Peace Rally
Hundreds of people gathered at both ends of Meridian Hill Park in Northwest Washington for a peace rally sponsored by the D.C Antiwar Network.
But there were interlopers: Thirteen members of ProtestWarror, supporting the Bush administration and its policies in Iraq. When the Bush supporters arrived, about 20 black-clad, self-described anarchists emerged from the crowd, shouting profanity and epithets and demanding that they leave the peace rally.
When the Bush supporters refused to leave, the anarchists tore the sign out of the Bush supporters' hands and stomped on them. When ProtestWarrior leader Gil Kobrin objected, several male anarchists knocked him to the ground, kicking him in the back and punching him. Other anarchists punched and shoved Kobrin's 12 colleagues.
After D.C. Antiwar Network members broke up the fight, the Bush supporters heeded their order to leave the park. Kobrin then called D.C. police, who are now guarding them at the entrance of the park as they hold up their pro-war signs. "We're going to hang tight," Kobrin said. "We're expressing our freedom of speech just as they are expressing theirs." --Robert MacMillan

Those peaceful persons are full of so much hate and vitriol. It would seem that someone could have had charges filed against the unwashed persons who did the kicking and punching. I'm glad the PWs seem to have recovered.

Snow, huh? Send us some. :^DBoBilly called yesterday, he'll be in Gambia another week,
and then home. I think he's recruiting for the military now.
He sounds like a hard worker. Way to go, man!

I guess everyone ran to get lunch. This thread came to a screeching halt. I'm ready for the parade to start.

Phoop! I'm trying to look at video of the President's speech, but Fox's video link won't show me anything but commercials! I wonder if my husband's security setup is keeping me from downloading the video, or whatever it's supposed to do?
