Tim Russert and Cosi



Tim Russert was at Cosi today. I had so many questions and wanted to bother him but I thought it would be uncool. Do I interrupt the man as he is eating or do I mind my own business? I wanted his thoughts on the midterms and the MD governors and senate races. Actually I wanted to gloat about Duke's win over BC but again I thought it might not be the best course of action. The weird thing is that you see some of the most powerful and influential people in the world going to the same places I go. Why is Timmy Russert eating a sandwich at Cosi? Why isn't he at the Palm? I know the answer to these questions I have been around it too long to be phased by it, but it is a good reminder that all these famous influential people are just that...people. i wonder if he has seen Underworld Evolution? Does he order out from Spices? I know he has been interjecting himself into the Klingle Road fight.

A few years back I was in Chipotle when Senate Majority leader Frist came in to eat. He had a burrito and his detail with him, he looked so alone thought. He just sat there by himself eating. I wanted to bother him too but I didn't. In this case it was so surreal because he didn't seem like a regular person he had his detail standing behind him while he ate by himself. I have seen the ragin cajun about town last time he had his daughters at the mall and it looked like he was just being dragged from store to store.

Ultimate i want my political people to be regular joe's. I guess it is an indication that they relate to normal everyday people.
