    inauguration week is almost here and DC is expecting something like 4 million visitors. Any BGers planning on making the trip? bars are gonna be staying open till 5am and the metro system is gonna be running much later too. woo-hoo for party time in the city!

    i managed to score two tickets to one of the official inaugural balls so im retarded excited about that.

    I live in the DC/Metro area ... I'm staying as far as hell away as I can from DC and anything to do with it.

    I foresee a spike in rock sales. I have family in DC, I've always liked it but DAMN the crime is jacked up. Well it used to be anyway.

    Ill come and get drunk and you can listen to me sing endless praises for Kyle Orton and rant about TO in person? Nothing like listening to bitching in RL. Sound good?

    Ditto. I work downtown and thankfully they're smart enough to close for the day (woo 4 day weekend!), but I'm still going out of town to get the hell away from the tourists.

    That reminded me of those 2 skinheads that got arrested for the assassination plot. They said specifically they were going to do it in top hats and tuxes.
