I was waiting for one of my "specials" to finish her audition at the doll house. She was an out of town dancer that has used me several time so far this week. (I have a few so far that call me, I guess its my chivalry they like). While I was waiting two unmarked police cars blocked the east/west traffic on Cypress crossing Westshore. At first, I wondered why, then south bound on Westshore I could see a police motorcade and several buses. Since the AFC Champion Pittsburgh Steelers, who are playing in the Super Bowl here in Tampa, are staying at the Intercontinental Inn at Westhore and Kennedy, and it had been media day, I knew it had to be the football team. The batteries in my camera were very low so I could only get off one shot. I had to crop it a little.
I felt like Abraham Zappurder standing on the side of the road shooting the motorcade. I truly believed that someone would give me some shit aoubt being there because I was behind the policed off area. They weren't letting anyone in the area. It worked out OK.
I have a friend moving to Tampa...he needs a cheap place to live. Does the Cabbie Hotel still exist?

Awesome, I dont really care about either of these teams except from the standpoint that I love the NFL as a whole and Troy Polamalu is one badass dude. Also Larry Fitzgerald and Anquan Boldin are BEASTS -- I am getting fired up about it- Also are you working on Sunday? I will need a ride down to the stadium and plan on calling you if you are working.
