I did it when I was a teen and my sisters live in Rockville. I don’t think the train tracks have moved.

[xsmommy]

taken the subway you mean? no, it will be fine. probs LOTS more expensive than it was, but beats the headaches of parking and traffic. xsgirls took the subway to the Caps game last Thurs and xsteen and her bf took it on Saturday. Event parking is $25, so it’s def cheaper!

[SoothingDave]

Yes, the subway. I’m not taking the family on a bus.

I think it was $1.10 for a ride from Rockville to Smithsonian when I was last there. Now it’s $5.75 during rush hour.

With even the fawning press faulting his responses, FUBO may yet find that fame is indeed fugacious & a funereal fugue is forthcoming — politically speaking...

[Daffynition]

We just were in DC.....and the Metro is very expensive. We used it a lot. But the *sights* are priceless....and make it all worthwhile

[SoothingDave]

Plus I see you either have to pay $5 for a permanent card to ride, or else pay a $1 surcharge on every trip for using a paper farecard. And I can’t buy a one day unlimited pass for $14 unless I spend the $5 for the card first.

Let's hope that Hillary 2016 is as fugacious as Hillaryt '08.

we already know it will be fugly

[NeoCaveman]

I saw Senator Cruz live and in person just eight days ago.

I was sincerely impressed. He seems to have it all, intelligence, charisma, and charm. I think he can connect with people.

[NeoCaveman]

I’d much rather vote for somebody who has, you know, done something.

She accomplished much. It's all in her book "Going Rogue" you should read it.

[secret garden]

Yay! The third time they checked the hospital laundry, they found his cap! Whoop!

[secret garden]

We did the math and decided the card was worth the price for as many times as we would use Metro.

[Texan5]

I can’t believe that people are lining up to paint Hillary as a victim of Benghazigate already-and the hearings haven’t even started-will she pout again and pull the poor little female card? I now have a Green Day earworm...

“Do you have the time, To listen to me whine,
About nothing and everything all at once?
I am one of those
Melodramatic fools,
Neurotic to the bone no doubt about it

Sometimes I give myself the creeps,
Sometimes my mind plays tricks on me,
It all keeps adding up,
I think I’m cracking up!”

[Robert A Cook PE]

Whhoop!

[MoochPooch]

Which will become fugacious first? Apple or Microsoft?

[xsmommy]

She’s a non-starter and you must realize it.

[NeoCaveman]

Either way. I will always correct the record.

She accomplished more in her short time than most do.

[xsmommy]

the MSM killed her among the rank and file. the cult of personality killed her amongst conservatives. EVERY bit as bad as the obamabots.
