Awww fanks, Bokey fer thinking about me It was rare that I used the metro, as it was not a difficult drive for me when I worked in Riverdale/College Park area.

Admittedly, I don't know much about D. C. geography, so I don't know how the commutes are for either of them or anyone else in the area. . .
Zep is on the other side of town and I think Steeler lives in town.

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has fractured her right elbow in a fall, her chief of staff has said. Mrs Clinton had been on her way to the White House when she fell on Wednesday afternoon, her chief of staff Cheryl Mills said in a statement. The secretary of state was treated at The George Washington University Hospital and then went home. She is to have surgery to repair her elbow in the coming week, Cheryl Mills said. "Secretary Clinton appreciates the professionalism and kindness she received from the medical team who treated her this evening and looks forward to resuming her full schedule soon," her chief of staff added. Mrs Clinton had been due to join actress Angelina Jolie on Thursday morning at an event in Washington marking World Refugee Day, but pulled out after her accident.
I mean, where else am I gonna put this story? Why isn't she going to Canada or Europe to let socialized medicine take care of her?
