It worked. ;o) Looks like the moderator/s are paying attention tonight.
WASHINGTON - Even Dick Cheney is curious about who runs Washington.
The vice president was spotted Tuesday night with a copy of Washingtonian magazine's October issue featuring the "Power 150," its choices for the capital city's most influential people in business, culture, education and other pursuits. (Sorry, Mr. Vice President, elected officials were excluded. But you do appear in a photo at a Kennedy Center event.)
With his motorcade waiting outside the Borders bookstore at L and 18th streets NW, several people watched through streetside windows as Cheney browsed on the store's ground floor.
He picked up copies of the late David Halberstam's new book, "The Coldest Winter: America and the Korean War," and the companion book to Ken Burns' PBS series "The War," according to a person in the store who asked not to be identified.
After waiting in line behind a handful of other shoppers, Cheney paid for his items and left as quietly as he arrived.
Love those pictures of the president with Condi. You can tell
that they are absolutely comfortable with one another.
They are lucky to have one another to work with.
Good bunch of pictures tonight, Kaslin...thanks for Sanity
Island tonight.
You’re welcome
Yeah it did. Thanks for your suggestion
Speaking of the PPS series. I set my TV to record it. But when I tried to watch it the next day all I saw was The McCaucklin Group or something like that
You're quite welcome
I sure am sorry that I had to miss that speech in the General Assembly. It looks like he was very passionate.
Heh, I rounded a corner in a bookstore in McLean VA once, and almost ran into Richard Lugar!
Wonder how long it’ll take someone to try and blow this up super-sized to see what it says.

Someone on one of the threads about the series mentioned that they’d heard that it was going to be run in its entirety on Sunday on some PBS stations. I guess you could check whichever one is local to you to find out. We actually have four PBS stations in our viewing area!
Thanks for the dose - sorry late to the party today, had a friend round and then had a nap and only just woken up and thought I had better check before I actually turn in for the night.
So sorry about that and pardon my ignorance but what is a Yukon is that type of car?
Maybe he wears the same clothes most of the time he may several suits of the same type and colour.
Probably with his disdain for women her presence did not even register with him even more probably did not realise who she was.
I can understand both sides, one trying to be as normal as possible and also enjoying the wandering around looking at things but also understand that you do not want to go through the hassle and inconvenience both to yourself and others to be able to do this.
Here are both of them in the duty free shop in Shannon Airport when AF2 stopped for refueling during an oversea trip about 18 months ago
