Have you ever been in the Senate gallery?

Mr. Fidget

I have some of these with my name on them from 40 years ago.

It was an experience worth having,
reflecting upon, and mentioning.
I was five years old the first time.
How about you, have you been?
What are your impressions if so.


If not, go on a field trip, and get back to me.

I have not been to The Senate Gallery. 

I haven't gone over to the local sewer plant either - I know it's there, I know we need it, but I don't really need a tour.

Well, if you do ever decide to go see the wheels in "motion," brush up on your "RONR," http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert's_Rules_of_Order and then with that (likely expanded) knowledge in hand, learn the real deal: http://www.senate.gov/reference/reference_index_subjects/Rules_and_Procedure_vrd.htm
   "Tour" Willy Wonka's chocolate factory, or the Coors brewery in Golden, CO. but you should "observe" the Senate... all our costly freedoms depend upon constantly making sure they are under scrutiny... thanks C-Span!
