OK. Call now. It’s not that serious. Arlington county would be very fortunate to have me, but that’s not really my jam. However, I have thought about local politics. Never say never. But the “thank God is so unnecessary.”

I said what I said. I think some of these studies are just decoys and many are a waste of money at least from my perspective. And you’re only saying this because you don’t want the pedestrian bridge for whatever reason.

I know for a fact that people walk to the airport. Not everyone, not a lot but I’ve seen people walking to the airport. I don’t know? Yes I do. Where else they walking to? DCA is isolated. There is no where else those people would be walking to. I saw these folks on airport grounds. not at Pentagon City mall. Where else they walking to?

People do walk to the airport and the options available now are not always safe. It’s a narrow rickety sidewalk.

Pedestrian bridge would be good. If a study is part of protocol then so be it. However, I continue to stand behind this. I think this is great.

Okay. You laugh. I’m not trying to run for office but if I were I would want encouragement.

You work on your negativity.

It’s all moot since I’m not running. But I have ideas. I would be a man of the people. The people’s champ.

There’s a god damned good reason we don’t just hand $43M to people who claim they are the bees knees.

Well people are elected to office. And then they just might be handed over $43 million. But in this hypothetical I’ve ran for office and won. Because I’m the people’s champ.

They’re not handing you $43 million either. It’s not lkne I walked up to the courthouse demanding money. This isn’t a stick up. Relax.
