I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

Ann, that's a ferret.

DC travel also depends on: is Congress in session, did the Red Line break down again, what's happening at the Pentagon today, and is it Tuesday.

And is it rush hour, also known as 6:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. On a good day.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

OK, I have just convinced myself that it's actually good that I can't get my last project done, because it gives my replacement something straightforward to do on his own....

Isn't there a Maglev train proposed for Baltimore to DC? That would be cool.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I really hope this person is writing a novel...

Keep breathing!

Unfortunately, such a project would have to stand in line behind an inter-county connector, the Purple Line, and fixing the potholes we have every 10 feet on every road around here. Car-eating potholes. With bad breath.

Adding to the good news of the day...

I mentioned in February that I had proposed a member support program at my gym. After being turned down by the local GM, I went to the VP, who it turns out, loves the idea. The dotted line has been signed, my membership is now gratis and I have a great way to get my name out in front of a whole new coaching audience, learn cool new stuff AND get motivated to work out now that my personal trainerbff has moved out of town.

Lemonade, baybee!

Now tagless for your comfort.

Car-eating potholes. With bad breath.

Like the one on the Geico commercial that sounds like Britney Spears?

And tourists? STAND RIGHT, WALK LEFT!

I am not above a pleasant, yet booming, "Standing on the right, walking on the left, please!"

Every single time I do it, some local thanks me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I am not above a pleasant, yet booming, "Standing on the right, walking on the left, please!"

I wish people did that in Chicago.

Maybe if I yell at two people for standing on the left, they'll yell at two people, and they'll yell at two people, and so on and so on....
