Well, we are still open. In an email we got, it said the road closures would not affect us. I hope it snows a shitload wed night.

We are open too and I work on 19th and K. Bullshit doesn't begin to describe my thoughts on this decision.

i hope it hails half way thru the parade.

you know the mighty park-popo will decide to screw things up last minute cuz their boots are too tight or their horsies farted or some asswad spotted a bum's hidden bag (aka bomb scare) or some other stupid shit.

I work at 15th & G (RIGHT across 15th from the white house) - and we're still open.

I have a Dr's appointment at 3:30 in the afternoon - I told them I was taking the whole day off because it'll be impossible to leave our building until like 7 tomorrow night.

And while the roads around you may be open - they're going to be so congested it's going to suck...

well, i work in crystal city, far enough from the bullshit. the problem will be gettin to&from work with most roads closed, bunch of retarded out of towners drivin and walkin around, plus the metro is also half out of service plus the forecasted snow plus bush sucks.

woe is moi.

Yeah, fucking out of towners. Out of all the times of the year to visit DC, WHY OH WHY do they decide to come for the inaguration?! Watch it on your fucking televisions like the rest of the country, and don't fuck up everyone's commute!!! :angryasian:

I'm thinking I'm prolly just going to stay home. I mean, it's a liberal leave day, so why not take advantage of it?

so now Rt 110 will be closed 5AM-4PM tomorrow :wtf::redfu:

FOR FUCKIN WHAT? the stupid bush parade is in DC not in fuckin arlington, howTF am i gonna get to work?!

the only point to this BS is to freak people into liking/thinking they need g.w.fush, and to keep dissent out of the district.

tomorrow is lookin more and more like a sickday for me.
