Highs and lows of a short holiday

I usualy take off work xmas to new years, That didn't exactly workout this year, but I didn't let it get out of hand. Probably the biggest let down was losing in the championship round of my fantasy football league, it was a great season anyway and I will walk away with over 500 in prize money. It was a little sad to open my EMail the next day and see several Emails to "Almost Champ" , #2, "The 1st loser" Oh well there is always next year. Kirsti and Dan got me a digital camera and I was hoping to blog some photos right away but it turns out I have some computer issues to iron out before I can accomplish that but I plan to get on that when time allows. We went to the Redskins last home game Sat night we had a great time even though they lost. On the way to the game they closed the inner loop of the beltway for the Ford funeral procession from Andrews to the Capitol. Fortunately we were on the outer loop and didn't get to jammed up, we saw the procession go by, just what you would expect, a bunch of government limos surrounding a hearst decorated with American flags. Soon after it passed by and much to our surprise an identical procession passed by . Dan thought maybe it was James Brown. Having been around DC all my life I know it is common practice, for security purposes, to have a decoy for the Pres, but I have to admit I was shocked to think they would go to that extreme for a dead Pres., but I guess there is an obligation to the family as well.
