Meanwhile, Outside Bayh's House...
...the spirit of American entrepreneurship lives on:
With reporters staked out in their front lawn night and day all week long to monitor Sen. Evan Bayh's house across the street, the three Waldman kids found a way to profit - sell lemonade to the thirsty media throng.And boy did they make a killing.
No sooner had the stand been set up at the base of their driveway then instantly a line formed five-deep in cameramen. Location, location, location. Serving the ice-cold juice in nice pint-sized glassware, the kids quickly made a buck or two...or twenty.
The elder Waldman saleswoman, Siena, 6 (and 3/4!) said she'd use the profits to buy a walkie-talkie, but noted that it'd be "expensive."
No wonder she was charging a dollar a drink.
No matter, reporters kept on coming up to quench their thirst on an 85-degree August day in sunny Washington, DC. With such a successful business, aided by a multi-color lemonade sign resting on their table, Alexa, 5, might now be able to get herself a new Ugly Doll.
As for Lucas, 3, he's not so sure what he'll do with the money yet. Maybe an Obama-Bayh '08 t-shirt?
Good for them!
