So a Special Agent of some sorts walks into the place where I work...

... which is a small advertising agency (8 people, on the top floor of a 3-story building) and asks us if he can use a certain window in the corner. This corner faces an intersection outside. We say yes... for some reason, and then he walks back outside.

A minute later he comes in hauling a large case and he's with two more men.

*fast forward*

He's a friggin sniper with the government! He set up shop and had the two agents guarding him so none of us could bother him or distract him. Dick Cheney is in town and had a scheduled appearance right outside.

EDIT: this is in Louisville, KY, by the way

Yeah, I confirmed that a minute ago with the receptionist.

Not sure if I should ask him to off Dick. :)

Would love to! But I work up here by them, and they've fiercely warned (and thanked) me for not getting in the way whatsoever, and they made special mention of taking no pictures or to not record it. Not sure if I have a camera around here anyway... *looks*

Ask him which one's his rifle and which one's his gun.....or maybe which one's for fighting and which one's for fun.

LoL, actually yes it can. He'd probably be locked up. You can't threaten the President or Vice President, and they'd probably assume that as a threat.

I'm sure they do, but our rooftop is insanely steep. It's like a weird, modern new building with a rooftop that always makes me think of a stingray when I look at it. I don't think it would be safe at all to be perched up there.
