As If 4 Million People Were Not Enough
The DC City Council has just voted to let the bars keep pouring until 5 a.m. on inauguration week. I wonder what a Baracktail tastes like. Or will they be selling Obamatinis?
FROM THE COMMENTS: Paul Dirks wisely observes, "I can see it now....People wandering the streets looking for change they can relieve in."
Adds Dumdedumdum, "And when those in Paul Dirks' vision succeed: 'Yes! A can!' "

Nope. That one was a lack of caffeine. But now fixed. Thanks.

Yet another reason why I'll be watching the historic event on TV from Indianapolis (in between studying paper dolls, pink clothes for boys and 70s unisex fashions at the Children's Museum!), not on the Mall, even though I live 8 miles from the Capitol. I think the last mob event I attended in DC was the first Beach Boys appearance (7/4/81?). There's such a thing as too many people in one place, for me.
But I do hope they are also planning to have the Metro running late as well.

did you just publicly disclose that you'll have a bed currently without an occupant during the inauguration? -

Only if you are willing to share it with a middle-aged Italian guy and an emotionally needy beagle. But seriously, we may be renting our spare beds through our church as a fundraiser. I'm leaving it up the Italian guy, since I'll be away.

Yikes, political hangover of massive proportions!
And btw, having seen the way hordes of drunken American teenagers behave while on spring-break, I am not looking forward to this. -

I'm okay with the beagle......

But I wasn't asking for myself. -

With the Supreme Court gun decision in DC, this look like a scenario Bob Uecker portrayed on one of his comedy albums, where as the play by play man he said, "It's hard liquor and hand gun night here at the park."

upper middle class drunks staggering the streets of Adams Morgan and Cleveland Park in the wee hours - a criminal's wet dream. It'll be like taking candy from a baby for the DC thug lite.

jayack, I'll ask; how should I contact you, to avoid annoying littering Swampland with the answer?

You know, after the DC sniper incidents I would have thought there would be no way the assault weapons ban would NEVER be lifted. I realize that the SC did it but still somebody had to bring a suit for them to have the opportunity to rule on it. Of course conspiracy theorist will point out that the SC didn't life the ban until the year that people thought a black man had a pretty good shot at winning the Presidency. The more I think about it, the more I worry so imma stop thinking about it now and focus on happy thoughts.

"Where is my 401k statement..."

Over there. Under the envelope the letter from your employer sent you yesterday reducing your medical benefits. -

Only for a week? They should have it like this for the next 8 years.........DC is getting hip and out with the OLD grandpa thinking of early last calls. This is going to be DC's version of Mardi Gras..........except, all the 20 different types of police in DC are also going to be out in full force (that's a downer!)

Didn't you hear? That swirly in the toilet is threatening to suck down yet another economic turd, I mean, sector.
.
So many people are filing bankruptcy now over medical benefits that the hospitals need bridge loans to cover their costs, too!
.
Yeah, I know:
Not!
.
But it could happen, couldn't it... -

There ought to be an entry in there for the Guinness Book ...
Maybe several.
What is the record for the number of people shouting "Yes, A Can" simultaneously?
