Today, in Takoma Park MD, I heard a whistle...
My wife and I were crossing the road to go to the Folk festival there, and the traffic control officer had a whistle.

Each time she blew it I muttered something short and sharp under my breath - very softly, since our Daughter was with us.

The exchange sounded something like this:

{TWEEEET-TWEET} "ass."
{TWEET} "ass."
{TWEEEET-TWEET-TWEET} "ass."

Remember this the next time you hear a whistle.

1. we are planning a victory party
And my part of the planning is where we stand there on moving day and yell, "Get out of Gore's house." I think I will also recommend we bring whistles and yell something else.

2. We were there today too...
When we left she was bitching at somebody who was dropping off a passenger at the corner "This ain't no loading zone!" The driver had pulled close to the curb so others could pass her...It wasn't as though she was in anybody's way.

You give somebody a little authority, and geeeeze! :eyes:
