the eagles on the Taft Bridge are mysterious

Above is a photo of one of the light poles on the Taft Bridge on Connecticut Avenue. And here’s our theory about these eagle sculptures on top of the lamps… There are probably, say, 20 birds in total, one on each pole as they march along the side of the bridge, and all of them face inward towards the pedestrians, or the cars if you are driving. Except for one. Ah ha! On the west side of the bridge, closer to the Dupont Circle side, one of the eagles faces off toward the National Cathedral. Why is it turned? This is where the Illuminati landmarks come into the theory. I think they left a major component out of National Treasure: Book of Secrets. Actually, I never saw that movie because I already sawNational Treasure. But whatever Nicholas Cage was doing in DC in that movie he was probably doing it totally wrong. He should have been tracing a line between that misaligned eagle and the National Cathedral because who knows what is hidden in that line. It pretty much has to be part of the compass. If you know anything about the Freemasons then I’m sure you are following me here.
Anyway, if you are Dan Brown and you are reading this and you still don’t have the ending written for The Solomon Key you can feel free to use this material.

Oooo, can we work a Knight Templar into this some how?
So I’m not the only one who thought National Treasure didn’t live up to its title?
Those eagles are pretty dang cool. No matter what sinister plot they’re a part of.
