i will continue to completely tune out any complaints like this until we enact a commuter tax.
more specifically, DC needs to continue to aggressively implement performance parking. parking on public city streets should be priced to accurately reflect the cost. this is a good, concise summary:
"Dupont Circle, like most of DC's busy neighborhoods, has far more demand for parking than supply of on-street spaces. Right now, we allocate the limited resource of spaces in one way. The meeting will discuss whether to allocate them in a different way."

Really? I think non-residents should at least be able to tell where they can park!
Listen I lived in DC for 15 years so I hear you… I just don't think people shoud be ripped off with things like the paper fare card.. Yeah, lets screw over tourists! That will show them!
Commuter tax in to DC. That's the most retarded suggestion I've heard in a long time.
You must not have watched the presidential debate last night.

The fact that he plays in Detroit probably doesn't help either.

FIrst time in my life! and most probably last…
I guess Cabrera is just not a popular player.. if it had been Hamilton or Pujols I think it would have gotten a ton of attention…

I bet all it takes is a cold stare, and people just melt into a puddle.

Samantha Brown has got to be the most generically vanilla woman ever to grace the screen. I'll bet she was born wearing J. Jill and will get pregnant if you say 'fuck' in front of her.

Though I can't argue against your first sentence, I can say that vanilla done right can be a very, very awesome flavor (of ice cream, of course) ;).

I actually think I'd look a little like this guy if I grew out my hair, my beard, put on a little bit of weight, and bought some glasses that were a little more middle of the road than what i wear.
Could just be my imagination though.
