Lots of things happen around here. Most of them do not happen in front of me, but the proximity is still exciting.

For example, when CNN airs an interview with the head of the Capitol police, who says that the door Cynthia McKinney went through on the day she hit the police officer is "a very busy door" I can agree. I use that door every day. Imagine my surprise when I went to work last week and a police officer near the door that I always use asks if anyone witnessed an "incident" a few days before. It took a moment for me to connect the two events. As it turns out, two staffers did witness the McKinney-cop throwdown and have been issued subpoenas. It could have easily been me. Geez.
