If you live in DC, most of the limited amount of zipcars are booked days in advance for weekends. I just rent from National when I need a car.

:rolleyes:

Howdy, Box!

Aerobics on the street in Mexico City yesterday morning was pretty entertaining. So was eating carne de calle. :D

I got sent to secondary customs screening :-:

I hope you start feeling better, soon!

Are income taxes generally lower/higher in Virginia? I couldn't really tell from your post.

Lower than in the District, IIRC.

I have a friend in DC with a few properties. I've asked her to send me some details. I'll pass along what I receive.

RNC spent $2,000 at a West Hollywood lesbian themed strip club last year.
Filthy hypocrites.

So it looks like the UDUs have changed booking patterns, a lot of the UA flights I am looking to bump run on are F9/Y0, I think people are shying away from F in favor of upgrades.

Do they publish upgrade lists like pda.continental.com?

They have the GIDS, so I assume they have the system capability. That doesn't mean they have done it though.

The Orange Line is prohibitively packed during morning rush hour these days. One of my colleagues who gets on the train at Clarendon usually around 8:00-8:15 am had to wait 35 minutes for a train that had room to squeeze on. That was on an average day with no train delays or other issues on that line. I live on the Red Line, and even on the most packed non-irrops days, at most you would have to wait for only one train to pass by due to overcrowding. I would never live on the Orange Line these days, unless I lived at Vienna or Dunn Loring, where you can still get a seat during rush hour because they are at the beginning of the line.
