United Nations 2 | NYC JAN + FEB 2003
 


I couldn't resist getting a picture in the hot seat. I was amused that the sign wasn't bolted down.


Seats at the exam were assigned at random. This was my seat for the second day. From left to right: calculator, Red Bull, potato chips, candy bar, hand sanitizer, highlighter, black pens, chewing gum, orange juice and Kleenex.


Detail from the outer doors.


The second day of the exam coincided with Colin Powell's visit to the Security Council to promote the war on Iraq. Satellite trucks camped out the day before as if they were in line for concert tickets.


Across the street from the UN is America's mission.
