Updated Forecast: In Excess of 8" of Snow, Plus Wind
And Now, 10-20 Inches

Snowmaggedon 1.0 in Time Lapse
Morning Roundup: After the Snowfall Edition
In the off chance you aren't friends with Sarah Palin on Facebook, let it be noted that the former Alaska governor/VP candidate/attention starved loon/media juggernaut announced last night that she will indeed be making a stop in the D.C. area on her book tour. This may come as a shock, but it turns out she's not planning on promoting Going Rogue at Politics & Prose. In fact, she won't be at a bookstore at all. Instead, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Dec. 5, she'll be out at the BJ's at 13053 Fair Lakes Shopping Center in Fairfax, presumably so she can rub elbows with the "real Americans" who buy in bulk. Mark your calendars!

sign me up for a big cup of yawn.
You're totally excited, I know - maybe if you're lucky, an autographed copy will be under your Christmas tree/Menorah/Kwanzaa kinara/pentagram/festivus pole.
Even though she'll be at a place called "BJs," I can't summon the strength to say anything risqué.
Set phasers to "WTFCARES?"
Welcome to Baracho, honey?
You shouldnt-a, hadnt-a, oughtnt-a start no fight!
Our burying grounds are a most impressive sight!
The message on them tombstones is as simple as can be:
He shouldnt-a, hadnt-a, oughtnt-a swang on me!
Now, if you had won the MEN's international fencing competition...
PUSH THE BUTTON, MAX!
ok, i went to look up "welcome to baracho" on google to figure out what the hell you guys are referencing, and your comments are already the #4 link that comes up.
also, i couldn't figure it out. what gives?
You cheated! Cheated! I hate you! I refuse to accept! I won't win any way but my way! You've ruined my reputation, do you hear? You I hate! You and your hair that's always combed, your suit that's always white, your car that's always clean! I refuse to accept! I challenge you to another race!
alright, finally got it figured out!
And if you Google "strangling hobos," guess what the #1 and #2 hits are?
Dec. 5th - Sarah Palin - BJs - Fairfax. Got it. Hope she brings some aspirin. After three hours, her jaw's gonna be some kind of stiff. Um, so I've heard.
If she's such a "rogue" and "maverick," why is she playing it safe in Teabagger Country? She should be peddling her wares in the Belly of the Beast itself: Lambda Rising in Dupont.
Wake me up when she takes her clothes off.
Actually, just let me keep sleeping
See now I wish there were an "I like this" button on DCist.
just gotta give it the old +1
After the book signing, Palin will be manning a sample stall in Aisle 33, handing out chicken pot pie samples in little paper cups, now available in 48-packs. Like a real working American.
I betcha' she can see DC from the parking lot at BJs.
I dunno about her, but I've seen plenty of BJs in DC parking lots.
Maybe someone at BJ's will buy her magazines or books since she still hasn't said which ones she reads.
I recommend "My Pet Goat."
Contractually, she had to go to Fair-AND-BALANCED-fax for this one.
I'd like to be the ham in a Palin/Coulter Wonderbread sandwich...
I think ill get blacked out drunk and go dressed as a stealth tea-bagger and see where the winds of fate take me.
The headline should have been "This is the closest she will ever get to Washington"
Give the woman a break!!! I never imagined that there are so many idiots in DC. What is wrong with you, people? I think you like to live a 1984 Orwell society. It is coming with your beloved Messiah in the WH. Where is your manners and education? I am going for a signature and I may not a your typical "teabagger". Probably got more education that all of you responders combined. If you think teabaggers are what you imagine, you are going to be very disappointed. Go ahead and indulge in hate.
You realize this non-conversation wrapped up over a week and a half ago, right?
Have fun standing in line.
