Man, what a day. Just to update those of you still reading at this late hour: Metro is now reporting "emergency track work" at Mt Vernon Sq 7th St-Convention Center. Trains are sharing the same track between Mt.Vernon Sq and U Street-Cardozo stations, causing delays in both directions, and as of 7:10 p.m., they don't expect it to be fixed for at least 2 more hours. Add this Green/Yellow line delay to the existing problems on the Orange line between East Falls Church and West Falls Church, and you've got a really long late evening commute for all the workaholics still at their desks (or, preferably, those of you heading out to bars). Good luck out there.



I very much agree with the comment on the Washington Post's Get There blog: "You suck, Vacuum Truck!"
Well, I was going to take Metro to the DCist Exposed show, but given their inability to get their $h!t together, looks like I'm driving. Or at the very least carjacking some old dude's Cutlass Seville in White Flint.
cutlass seville?
you're mixing metaphors here, sir (or at least mixing oldsmobiles and cadillacs)
